Antya nearing Deadpool? Founders move on

Antya, (profiled earlier) the Indian version of Mahalo is almost nearing deadpool (or shortcircuit, as we call it).

Founders (earlier used to work for ibibo) have moved on:

  • Sunny Saurabh has joined MySpace as Product Manager (linkedin)
  • Bharanidharan has joined AccentiumWeb, company founded by Vivek Pahwa (who sold DesiMartini to HT) and also invested in Antya.

Fundamentally, Antya had several issues – for example tying up the web search in India with site url and I am nit sure whether Antya ever took off bigtime and though the site is operational for now, I believe it’s just a matter of time that the site heads towards it’s own antya.?

What’s your opinion? Will you miss the service?

      guess it will help if the founders can share their learning in a post…

      Yeah, founders sharing their experienced would be great. How were they marketing the site? Did they ever advertised. I am just curious to know how many “Joes” knew about their service.
      Anyway, good luck to founders for their next venture if they ever plan one.
