  • Rajnigandha Pearls radiates goodness in new TVC

    Rajnigandha Pearls radiates goodness in new TVC

    MUMBAI: Mouth freshener brand, Rajnigandha Pearls has rolled out its new TVC with Bollywood actor and its brand ambassador, Priyanka Chopra. The brand showcases acts of kindness extended to strangers with heart-warming narratives reflecting the brand’s philosophy.

    The TVC, conceptualised by L&K Saatchi & Saatchi has a unique and interesting plot, which weaves in unpredictable instances, shrouded in surprises and is narrated in anecdotes. The commercial, with its stillomatic presentation, is devised to intrigue and hold the viewers’ attention.

    The film revolves around Priyanka who comes across various situations that have a flip side and are initially deceptive. It begins with her walking in a market street. She observes that people around her, are behaving unusually as she sees a waiter pushing a woman with shopping bags in her hands. She is momentarily disturbed, but within seconds, realises that the waiter was saving the lady from a flower pot that had toppled and is about to hit her. Gradually as she moves ahead, she comes across a series of such events that look offending or demeaning at first sight, but the goodness hidden behind these acts come alive after a slight pause.

    Actor Priyanka Chopra says, “I don’t think there is anything better than spreading goodness in this world and it’s great that Rajnigandha Pearls has decided to highlight that. We all have goodness inside us, and all around us, we just have to open our minds to see it. It’s these random acts of kindness that make the world go round.”

    DS Group associate VP marketing Rajeev Jain adds, “Goodness inside, shines outside’ is an aphorism fostered by Rajnigandha Pearls. Being the brand’s core essence, this inner goodness or achchai not only stands out in all our communication but also goes into the making of Rajnigandha Pearls, a premium mouth freshener. In this thought-provoking campaign, we are highlighting such acts of goodness. The TVC leaves a feel good factor with a memorable message that reveals goodness in various little situations.”

    L&K Saatchi & Saatchi executive vice president Sanjeev Gauba mentions, “The tagline and the philosophy is what we wanted to showcase it by depicting caring individuals going out of their way to help strangers.”

    Leveraging on the success of earlier campaigns and growing demand, this new integrated campaign will be advertised on TV, radio, digital, outdoor, print and BTL

    DS Group celebrates ‘goodness of humanity’ with Priyanka Chopra

    MUMBAI: In recognition of her undeniable talent, immense popularity, her humanitarianism and her innate shine of goodness, Rajnigandha Silver Pearls has named Priyanka Chopra as their Brand Ambassador.  She features in the new TVC announcing the launch of saffron blended, silver coated cardamom seeds, ‘Rajnigandha Silver Pearls’ from the house of DS Group.
     

    The new 60 sec TVC celebrates the little gestures of goodness that we make despite our hectic day-to-day life, with the slogan ‘Achai ki ek Alag hi Chamak hoti hai ’. The new catchphrase re-emphasizes on the brand’s belief that real goodness always shines through in our words and deeds, and sets us apart as heroes of real life.
     

    The newly signed brand ambassador Priyanka Chopra says, “I truly do believe that ‘Achai ki ek Alag Chamak hoti hai ’!  There is an innate goodness in all of us and I think in today’s time its hugely important to spread as much love and positivity as possible. I am delighted to have been chosen as the brand ambassador of Rajnigandha Silver Pearls.  It not only a delicious and refreshing product but also a brand that promotes such positive messages, which is something the world really needs.”

    Commenting on this occasion Mr. Rajeev Jain, Senior General Manager, Marketing, Dharampal Satyapal Ltd. said, “Rajnigandha brand has always been a hallmark of achievement and our new product ‘Rajnigandha Silver Pearls’ that shares the same brand’s DNA, can be seen as symbolic of individuals who are successful and yet uphold a strong humanistic approach to life. Priyanka Chopra has been appointed as the brand ambassador as she is an epitome of a global achiever, and at the same time a grounded and humble person who is always ready to give time and effort for a good cause. The TV commercial highlights exactly this aspect of her life”.
     

    The film has been created by Dentsu Marcom and narrates the story of a successful film-star who has a massive following because of her inherent goodness. It shows interwoven scenes that narrate examples of little acts of goodness— Priyanka Chopra is seen performing an Indian classical dance, making a moment special for a little boy, throwing a scarf at the screaming sailors and surprising an old woman with a birthday cake.

    Finally we see the classical dance performance culminating in her final act of goodness where Priyanka Chopra calls her team for the final bow in front of the audience to acknowledge their contribution to the applause that she has received. It is in the journey back home, that she tastes Rajnigandha Silver Pearls and her chauffer looks through the mirror to realize that ‘achchai ki ek alag chamak hoti hai’.

    Titus Upputuru, National Creative Director, Dentsu Marcom says “Rajnigandha Silver Pearls is saffron blended silver-coated cardamom seeds (Elaichi) Cardamom  is good for health, silver has shine, so we came up with ‘goodness shines’. At the same time we also considered the lineage of Rajnigandha which stood for success and achievement. When we decided to go ahead with Priyanka Chopra as the face of the brand, we thought let’s show stardom in a new light. Thus was born ‘achchai ki ek alag chamak hoti hai’”.

    The film is shot like a trailor of a Hollywood movie, complimented by a special song as the background score with the lyrics ‘Dil bada toh tu bada’, which has been written and sung to an Indian melody to bring out the idea that one is only as big as one’s heart is. This is an ATL & BTL campaign which will encompass print, outdoor, radio, digital and OOH mediums to extend the thought of ‘Acchai ki ek alag chamak hoti hai’.
