  • Cadbury Dairy Milk evokes kindness and generosity in its new campaign

    Cadbury Dairy Milk evokes kindness and generosity in its new campaign

    Mumbai: Cadbury Dairy Milk has rolled out an all-new campaign in collaboration with Ogilvy. It urges people to treat and embrace others’ happiness and achievements with a big heart. The launch will be supported by a 360-degree communication campaign with amplification across media touchpoints.

    The all-new TVC adds a new dimension to the generosity narrative and nudges people to be there for someone.

    With this development, the brand aims at melting the power distance across varied relationships—one relatable story at a time—and taking the “Kuch Accha Ho Jaye, Kuch Meetha Ho Jaye” story to the next level.

    Staying true to its narrative, Cadbury Dairy Milk has successfully captured the essence of evoking kindness and generosity over the years.

    The heartening one-minute video opens with a politician and his bodyguards rushing to the diyas amid the crowd cheering for him. One of his closest aides is seen checking the time nervously on his duty. Observing this, and much to the viewers’ surprise, the politician asks for his daughter’s roll number. While the bodyguard is left perplexed, he proceeds to check the results on the phone. The politician, realising that she has cleared the entrance exam, offers a Cadbury Dairy Milk, which he specifically carried to celebrate the good news with his bodyguard, and asks him to take the day off and celebrate with his family.

    Commenting on the campaign, Mondelez India vice president of marketing Anil Viswanathan said, “Since 2018, generosity remains an innate part of Cadbury Dairy Milk’s storytelling that continues to connect consumers across all the geographies. Shining a spotlight on the inner ‘acchai’ and keeping purpose at the heart of our messaging, we have rolled out multiple campaigns that celebrate small acts of kindness.”

    Taking a step forward in the same direction, our latest effort reiterates the meaning of “Kuch Acha Ho Jaye, Kuch Meetha Ho Jaye” by urging individuals to share others’ happiness with a big heart and make their “meetha” moments even more special. Built on the simple insight that entitlement can create distance in relationships, we believe that the campaign’s powerful, yet relatable narration will inspire people to look beyond their own realities and create shared moments of happiness,” he added.

    Ogilvy chief creative officer Sukesh Nayak shared, “When we forget our entitlements and treat all as equal and celebrate their happiness as if it is ours, the joy is doubled. This is the thought behind our latest campaign for Cadbury Dairy Milk. This thought beautifully builds on the brand’s ongoing generosity platform. The campaign will have many touch points that will inspire us to join in and celebrate not just ours but others’ happiness too.”

  • Apollo Tyres partners with Wunderman Thompson to launch new TVC

    Apollo Tyres partners with Wunderman Thompson to launch new TVC

    New Delhi: Apollo Tyres has unveiled its latest television commercial for its off-roading motorcycle tyres- Apollo Tramplr.

    The TVC was launched in partnership with Wunderman Thompson.

    Through this power-packed commercial, Apollo Tyres is set to create a distinct spot for itself in the crowded all-terrain tyre market where every brand claims to offer true-blue off-roading tyres.

    This TVC is created to strike a chord with the adventure loving bikers who want the best tyres for their motorcycles.

    Conceptualised by Wunderman Thompson, the TVC is based on a unique and interesting observation. When it comes to off-roading adventure, every brand has the same thing to say and show to prove their point- the same mountains, the same trails and the same obstacles. There is nothing new. It is time to challenge the sameness. It is time to tell the world that adventure isn’t about visiting the same place, taking the same turn or following the same road taken by millions.

    Thus ‘Go Beyond Sameness’ was born. It is a call to every adventure lover to find new routes, challenge the limits, and discover something the world has never seen before. Because the real adventure begins when you go beyond sameness.  

    Commenting on the launch, Apollo Tyres president- Asia Pacific, Middle East, Africa Satish Sharma said, “Apollo Tramplr is designed for both on and off -road applications. The product is designed to give confidence to the rider to go beyond the usual terrains. Tramplr’s design is inspired by the legendary off-roading capability of ibex. The tread design of this tyre is derived from ibex hoofs for stronger grip, better control, and superior manoeuvrability. We have tested this product over some of the toughest of terrains before bringing it out for our customers.”

    Commenting on the TVC launch, Wunderman Thompson senior vice president and managing partner Joy Chauhan said, “Love for adventure is only second to the love for newer adventures for today’s youth. Brands which vibe with the thinking, culture, and aspirational values of the young and restless take up their mind space. Apollo Trampler is designed to fulfill the youth’s desire to challenge the sameness and go beyond to discover new experiences. This digital first campaign has all the right ingredients to support our adventure loving youth in their journey to greatness. Let the true adventure begin where sameness ends.”

    Sharing his thought on the TVC, Wunderman Thompson vice president and ECD Sundeep Sehgal said, “The idea of sameness comes from consumer behaviour. We observed sameness is the biggest enemy of discovery. It’s like a loop. The commercial is a reflection of every rider/adventure seeker who is somewhere stuck in that loop. They want to go on an adventurous journey but have forgotten the idea of going beyond. The idea was to nudge and make them go beyond their comfort zone, go beyond sameness.”

    upGrad announces its latest digital campaign for MICA Ahmedabad to aspire Indian youths

    Mumbai: upGrad has launched a new campaign reflecting the well-established legacy and the key differentiators of its digital marketing programme from MICA Ahmedabad.

    The narrative entails the legacy of the program, which is a well-accepted digital marketing course in the industry that provides 100+ digital marketing tools, the opportunity to run campaigns for real money, and access to MICA faculty.

    The programme has 12,000+ learners over 50 batches in seven years, with 300+ recruiters from leading companies and a wide alumni network that is recognised by the industry as a benchmark in digital marketing.

    Conceptualised by its in-house digital creative team, the campaign highlights how young potential aspirants, with a sheer ambition to fast forward their career, are all wanting to improvise in this digital era, while the campaign rightfully outlines how “Greatness can recognise Greatness.”

    As part of its digital campaign, the two ad films beautifully capture the excellence of its program, which is widely accepted and holds industry recognition for helping professionals build their careers.

    Speaking of the campaign, upGrad vice president & head of marketing Ankit Khirwal commented, “The career outcomes and the credibility the programme holds echoes for itself. It’s imperative in this era to hone the right skills needed to be future ready and we are glad that we are empowering the working professionals with the right skills, best pedagogy along with mentorship that will enable our learners to become future leaders of the industry.”

    upGrad associate director, head of creative and content marketing-India Shreyas Shevade added, “I’ve been on every side of the table at MICA except for one-behind the desk in their classrooms. I’ve been hired from there, taught there, and even applied to study there. So the idea for this campaign came from the many times I’ve seen a MICAn in an interview getting recognised for their degree. It’s amazing and a little envious that young and aspiring marketers today can add a great name like MICA to their CV just like that. And that’s what upGrad is all about-making great education easily and equally accessible to everyone with will and potential.”

  • Casio India launches its new brand campaign #LiveYourDream for the Casiotone range of keyboards

    Casio India launches its new brand campaign #LiveYourDream for the Casiotone range of keyboards

    Mumbai: Casio India announced the launch of its new “# LiveYourDream” brand campaign for its Casiotone range of beginner music keyboards on Monday.

    The cornerstone of the campaign is a digital brand film featuring “Taare Zameen Par” star Darsheel Safary, playing the role of an underdog who is able to rise in the eyes of his peers with the help of the music-playing skills he has developed by learning the Casiotone.

    Conceptualised by Tribes Communication and produced by Rising Star Productions, the film takes the opportunity to highlight the strengths of Casiotone, which enables the protagonist to realise his desire to play an instrument and garner admiration from his fellow college students. The film is live across all social media pages of the company, including YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.

    The campaign is supported by well-known artists from the music industry, such as music composer Sean Rolden, singer-instrumentalist Swasti Mehul, keyboard player Anshuman Singh, and singer-instrumentalist Priyanshi Srivastava, who are communicating their own tryst with social recognition achieved through playing a musical instrument.

    Commenting on the campaign, Casio India MD Hideki Imai said, “We want to transform young India from a music-loving country to a music-playing country. And we believe that Casiotone will help us take a giant leap towards this goal. Casiotone has an uncluttered interface, which makes it less overwhelming for beginners; its portability and compatibility with the Casio Music Space app means that you can start and continue the learning process anywhere—at home or in your hostel room. Also, keeping the target market in mind, the instrument has deliberately been made sleek and colourful to augment the appeal and attractiveness that a musical instrument player enjoys. Knowing to play a musical instrument is the epitome of cool, and we hope that this campaign instigates Generation Z to pick up one.”
