    CNBC-TV18 looks for the Environmental Superheroes; Collaborates with Afroz Shah Foundation for a cleanliness drive

    MUMBAI: In a bid to contribute towards the betterment of the society, CNBC-TV18, a market leader in the English business news genre, undertook a noble initiative against marine pollution and litter in association with popular environmental activist – Afroz Shah and his foundation. The collaboration saw the broadcast channel and the foundation organize a special cleanliness drive on 14th September at Versova beach.

    CNBC-TV18, since its inception, has been at the forefront when it comes to issues that matter. Marine pollution is one of the leading environmental issues that India is facing at present. Majority sections of the population are unaware of the hazardous implications that it possesses. Through this campaign, the aim was to call out to ‘environmental superheroes’ and urge them extend their support in cleaning the beaches and raising awareness on the irreversible damage caused by marine pollution. The initiative was further amplified via various multimedia tools that included digital, social media and broadcast. The campaign was promoted across Television, Social media and Radio interaction (via Ishq FM – Official Radio Partner), urging people to step out and help create a cleaner environment. 

    Commenting on the initiative, Mr. Basant Dhawan, CEO – English business news cluster, Network18 said, “CNBC-TV18 has established itself as the trusted choice for the Indian audience. Through this initiative, we aim to educate and influence our viewers from across the nation to join hands and help in keeping our environment clean. Our endeavors towards the betterment of our society will continue through actionable conversations and on-ground efforts.”

    Commenting on the initiative, Advocate Afroz Shah, an avid environmentalist said, “There is only one message that I would like to give is – Hard Work. We need to pull our socks up and start working hard towards the betterment of our community and society. Mother Nature is of paramount importance and we should start taking the lead in saving it and conserving it for the future. Non-Biodegradable waste is one of the biggest nuisances and I am glad that the younger generation is taking proactive measures towards a sustainable environment. We need an army in every city, in every area, taking responsibility and saying we care about nature.”

  • ScoopWhoop Hindi in collaboration with Posterscope celebrates Hindi Diwas by launching The Millennial Varnmala

    ScoopWhoop Hindi in collaboration with Posterscope celebrates Hindi Diwas by launching The Millennial Varnmala

    MUMBAI: Hindi is one of the most celebrated languages in the world. Apart from India, it is also spoken in Fiji, Mauritius, Nepal, South Africa and more, making it the second highest spoken language in the world. To celebrate Hindi Diwas, ScoopWhoop Hindi, one of India’s leading online platforms for Hindi content, decided to tackle a common problem faced by India’s millennial crowd – despite being a widely spoken language, there’s a large audience that have a hard time reciting the entire Hindi alphabet or varnmala.

    Inspired by conventional alphabet charts, ScoopWhoop Hindi has launched the Millennial Varnmala – a new alphabet chart that connects each Hindi letter with objects and experiences that resonate with the younger audience. From "Ka se Cool" to "Ya se YOLO" to "Ba se Bro" – the chart contains various references to terms from social media, new age pop culture and daily lingo. Launched on ScoopWhoop Hindi's Instagram, the chart was integrated into the platform’s 3×3 grid format.

    Sattvik Mishra, CEO, ScoopWhoop says "Corporate etiquette and the pressure to be "cool" have turned many youngsters away from one of the world's most fascinating languages. Everyone can recite A-Z in one breath but not many can do the same with Hindi. There couldn't have been a better time to launch the Millennial Varnmala than on Hindi Diwas and we hope to see a shift in the tide very soon."

    Haresh Nayak, Group Managing Director, Posterscope adds “The overwhelming exposure to western pop culture makes a lot of youngsters consider Hindi to be a less fashionable language than English. A lot of people lose touch with the alphabet once they pass out of school. We wanted to make it easy for people to remember so we looked into their day-to-day communication and interest points.”

    Gurbaksh Singh, Chief Creative Technologist, Dentsu Webchutney says "Hindi is one of India's oldest languages. Its popularity is immense but reciting the entire alphabet is a challenge for many. We decided to tap into what youngsters are comfortable with – their favourite colloquial terms on new age platforms like Instagram to refresh their memories with a fun and relatable method that will increase their affinity towards this beautiful language."
