Nikhil Kamath invests in creative agency One Hand Clap Media

Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath has invested in One Hand Clap Media, a creative agency founded by ex-AIB heads Aakash Shah and Naveed Manakkodan. 

The terms of the deal remain undisclosed.

One Hand Clap Media specializes in digital-first storytelling across ad films, creative campaigns, and digital mandate management. The agency has delivered work for major brands including Swiggy, Chetak, BGMI, Netflix India, Bumble, EMotorad, CRED, Ather, and Prime Video India.

Aakash Shah, Co-founder of One Hand Clap Media, said, “Nikhil gets our DNA, and our visions align. We both never cared for the status quo; we have always aimed to disrupt it, defy the metrics and algorithms to tell stories, not just campaigns for our clients.”

Founded by storytellers with a background in satire, culture, and digital media, the agency is positioning itself to challenge legacy agency models with bold, efficient creative output tailored to fast-moving digital platforms.
