    Star Sports launches ‘fan-centered’ campaign for Tata IPL 2024

    Mumbai: As the anticipation builds for India’s most awaited cricket spectacle, Star Sports, the official television broadcaster of the TATA IPL 2024, has launched an “ode to IPL fandom and its various expressions” in its campaign for season 17 of the tournament. Inspired by real-life fan stories, moments seen on social media and true events of fandom, the campaign brings alive moments of togetherness that unleash a plethora of diverse emotions. It celebrates the idea of “better together” by representing diverse groups of fans whose experience of TATA IPL 2024 and emotions attached with players, matches and match situations are elevated when they watch together.

    The film features four IPL captains and Star Sports ‘Believe’ ambassadors – Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, KL Rahul, and Shreyas Iyer – representing diverse fans in different situations, each representing different emotions which take over when one experiences key moments of the games in groups.

    The momentary transformations of fans’ personalities are a true representation of the emotional roller-coasters that IPL 2024 promises to be. Rishabh ‘Gabroo’ Pant’s gang sheds its “macho personality” and tears up with emotions, Hardik ‘Corporate’ Pandya and his team forget they are in a boardroom with foreign clients and break into a dance to celebrate, KL ‘Padhakoo’ Rahul and his study circle drop their books and let their passions fly when an umpiring decision goes against them, Shreyas ‘Good boy’ Iyer drops his submissiveness around his family and rebels against his father-in-law. The teasers and BTS clips surrounding the campaign have been making waves on social media and have added to the anticipation. It will be released in multiple languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, Bengali, and Malayalam to resonate with fans across India.

    Disney Star head-sports Sanjog Gupta said, “TATA IPL 2023 was the biggest IPL in TV history and reiterated the belief that ritualism, community and togetherness are essential facets of the live cricket viewing experience. This year, our campaign is an ode to the plethora of emotions that fans around the country will experience over the next couple of months. Unlike Indian cricket, where pride is the pervasive fan sentiment across the nation, IPL allows different fans to take sides and experience distinct emotions in the same moment. And these emotions are elevated when they are experienced in the company of friends, families and/or community. The goal of the campaign is to elevate the stature of TATA IPL, drive fan tribes to support their teams even more passionately and excite viewers for an unparalleled experience on Star Sports.”

    Star Sports ‘Believe’ ambassador, Hardik Pandya, said, “I’m thrilled to have participated in the ‘Ajab Rang Dikhega’ campaign. Playing the role of a fan in the campaign, brought back memories of me being a fan, celebrating happily with friends and family when emotions take over during memorable victories.”

    “As a ‘Believe’ Ambassador, it is an honour to be a part of the ‘Ajab Rang Dikhega’ campaign. IPL is an emotion, and we love it as much as the fans do. Through the new campaign, we celebrate the unique community experiences that IPL evokes across the country making it a truly unforgettable experience. I’m grateful for the love showered by fans and I’m looking forward to IPL 2024”, added Rishabh Pant.

    The campaign has been conceived and conceptualized by Tilt Brand Solutions, a Mumbai-based brand and communications consultancy that is a part of Quotient Ventures.

    The ‘Incredible Premier League’ is best experienced with friends and family, capturing the essence of communal viewing that enhances the thrill of live sports on television. Star Sports has effectively placed fans at the heart of its coverage, fostering a sense of community and highlighting the excitement of watching the marquee tournament on TV. Through a series of on-ground events under the ‘Star Nahi Far’ activations, the broadcaster has successfully engaged audiences from all corners of the country, offering fans and fan communities a unique opportunity to connect with their favourite heroes. The ‘Incredible 16’ initiative featured legends selecting their all-time IPL squads, receiving widespread acclaim. Fans enthusiastically voted to back their favorite all-time stars, and created their versions of the ‘Incredible 16,’ amplifying the excitement surrounding the tournament as the opening day approaches.

  • Danone India launches digital campaign on children’s nutrient absorption

    Danone India launches digital campaign on children’s nutrient absorption

    Mumbai: Furthering the nationwide launch of AptaGrow, Danone India has taken a significant leap in strengthening its toddler nutrition range by launching a digital campaign. The campaign is aimed at creating awareness around better absorption of vital nutrients in children aged three to six years, essential to support growth, brain development and immunity.

    Mothers are increasingly prioritising their children’s well-being and strive to provide them with a balanced diet since they want the best for their children. According to credible health associations, about 40 per cent of kids under 5 don’t reach their full growth and development potential.  Therefore, ensuring effective nutrient absorption is equally important. AptaGrow, which is formulated with prebiotics and other nutrients, plays an essential role in nutrient absorption. In line with this, the two digital films/ DVCs have been thoughtfully curated to focus on the significance of prebiotics in improving nutrient absorption. It emphasizes AptaGrow which is formulated with 37 nutrients including a unique blend of prebiotics that enhances the absorption of essential nutrients, thereby supporting the holistic development of a child, beyond just physical attributes. The campaign will be prominently featured on our owned social media assets.

    Speaking about the campaign, Danone India marketing director Sriram Padmanabhan said, “With evolving lifestyle preferences, we recognize the challenges that hinder children’s growth and development. We firmly believe that growth encompasses not only physical aspects but what also should be kept in consideration is their emotional and cognitive well-being.  Based on an independent survey, 69 per cent of mothers felt their children were not growing as per their expectation and 73 per cent believed that poor absorption of nutrients results in poor growth. Therefore, following the successful launch of AptaGrow, we have initiated a digital campaign to raise awareness and prioritize the role of prebiotics and other nutrients in facilitating nutrient absorption during a child’s developmental journey.”

    Additionally, focused on addressing the concerns of the parents regarding their children’s overall growth and development, AptaGrow has also introduced a first-of-its-kind tool – Growth Chakra, to help mothers measure and understand her child’s holistic growth needs. This screening tool helps mothers understand their child’s holistic growth and development aspects like height, weight, immunity, and overall well-being. The tool indicates areas where a child requires improvement, while the diet plan offered via WhatsApp bot assists in addressing these needs. The tool is verified by doctors and reviewed by 100 moms.

    AptaGrow stands as a testament to Danone’s commitment towards raising awareness about the importance of providing adequate nutrition, particularly during a child’s foundation years.

    Mumbai: Gatorade, PepsiCo India’s iconic hydration brand, has introduced its ‘Turf Finder’ initiative aimed at promoting the love and will for playing sports, amidst the hustle and bustle of India’s metropolitan areas, in partnership with Leo Burnett India. Gatorade seeks to inspire young individuals to embrace physical activity as a key part of their daily lives.

    Addressing the scarcity of recreational space in urban India, Gatorade’s ‘Turf Finder’ initiative is committed to finding us places to play, wherever and whenever space permits in the city. Utilizing historical maps data, Gatorade will pinpoint appropriate locations, including vacant parking lots or empty streets, and transform them into accessible playing areas for citizens across India’s metropolitan cities. The first Turf will be launched in Mumbai, with successive releases planned for other metropolitan cities, including Bengaluru.

    To launch the initiative, Gatorade has released a compelling film that depicts the chaotic and fast-paced lifestyle of city dwellers. Amidst the frenzy of bustling schedules and cramped quarters, the film delivers a powerful reminder, that all one needs is the will to play and we will find them the space. Gatorade is leading the charge by showing us how these spaces can be used to embrace an active lifestyle.

     

     

    Speaking on the initiative, PepsiCo India associate director, energy & hydration Ankit Agarwal said, “Gatorade has consistently championed the importance of fitness and an active lifestyle as integral components of well-being. However, in today’s fast-paced and chaotic society, finding both time and a suitable space for physical activity poses a significant challenge. We firmly believe that this initiative will make sport accessible to a lot more people, thereby cultivating a healthier lifestyle. By providing convenient and inviting spaces for play, we hope to inspire communities to embrace the intrinsic value of staying active amidst the demands of modern life.”

    Adding further, Publicis Groupe – South Asia CCO & Leo Burnett – South Asia chairman Rajdeepak Das said, “This is a true HumanKind idea where we are using technology to find solutions for modern day problems. Our cities are temporal in nature, they behave different by day and different by night. We have validated this spirit and used historic Google map data to find empty spaces at specific times which can be made into a turf. The most exciting part is that this campaign can be scaled across the country and not only promote an active lifestyle but also make a cultural impact in communities making sport an equalizer.”

    Gatorade’s new initiative will be amplified through a 360-degree campaign across digital, outdoor, and social media.

  • Thrive stands for human choice with a message to Take Food Personally

    Thrive stands for human choice with a message to Take Food Personally

    Mumbai: Thrive, a food discovery and ordering app, has announced the launch of its groundbreaking campaign, ‘Take Food Personally,’ aimed at encouraging consumers to prioritize choice in a time of highly commoditised food ordering experiences. Rooted in the idea that recommendations need to be personalised and grounded in real human connections, Thrive is dedicated to reinventing the meal discovery and delivery experience. Its innovative social feature, called the Thrive Feed, allows consumers to share their recommendations and experiences, fostering a sense of community for those passionate about food and enhancing word-of-mouth discovery for restaurants.

    Building on the insight that “kuchh bhi chalega” is often a standardised response to the question “kya khaana hai?”, Thrive aims to challenge this attitude towards food and empower people to eat what they truly desire. As part of the campaign, Thrive has released a series of brand films on its social media handles, presenting relatable scenarios where opting for ‘kuchh bhi’ leads to comically disastrous situations. These films are designed to compel consumers to rethink their approach to food ordering and inspire them to take control of their dining choices.

    Karan Chechani, co-founder and CMO said, “At Thrive, we believe that food is more than just sustenance – it’s an experience that should be savoured and enjoyed. With our ‘Take Food Personally’ campaign, we’re challenging the notion that commercial and logistical factors should always trump choice. We want to empower consumers to eat what they truly crave, without compromising on delivery, value or satisfaction.

    In a world dominated by algorithm-driven recommendations, Thrive is taking a bold step towards a community-centric approach to food delivery and discovery. We believe that the heart of culinary experiences lies in personal connections and shared recommendations, which led us to launch the Thrive app. We, at Thrive, are committed to revolutionising the food discovery and ordering experience in India by prioritising the needs and preferences of our consumers.”

    Thrive is committed to developing a platform that serves the interests of both consumers and restaurant partners. This campaign also extends its benefits to restaurants who depend on word-of-mouth discovery, an aspect that hasn’t seen consistent success in the digital realm due to a lack of connected experiences. Thrive offers its restaurant partners fairer commission rates at just 10 per cent, compared to industry standards. Through the shared experiences of its lively community, Thrive strives to restore the thrill of discovering new food experiences.
