MUMBAI: UTV Motion Pictures has lost a good resource. Its chief operating officer (COO) Sanjay Bhattacharjee will be leaving the organisation after 11 years on 10 May 2003.
 
 
While speaking to indiantelevision.com, Bhattacharjee refused to talk about his future plans as well as the reasons for leaving UTV Motion Pictures.

"My association with the motion picture division of UTV has been an eventful journey and one of great pride. Established in 1994, when the organisation had no knowledge of the unorganised Indian film industry, I helped set up the division. Despite being the division with the leanest structure at UTV, we distributed 16 films in the last 30 months, of which 12 films were super hits and one got an Oscar nomination," says Bhattacharjee.

Bhattacharjee adds that UTV Motion Pictures - an independent company - will account for 30 to 50 per cent of the organisation's revenues in the forthcoming year.

Looks as if HR consultants are going to hover around Bhattacharjee for some time.
