    Myntra launches festive campaign featuring Ranbir Kapoor & Kiara Advani

    New Delhi: Myntra has rolled out ‘Big Fashion Festival’ campaign for the upcoming festive season. The mega marketing campaign features Bollywood celebrities Ranbir Kapoor and Kiara Advani. 

    Poised to leverage Myntra’s position as India’s fashion expert, the campaign will be amplified across television, digital and social media platforms. 

    The campaign, with a tagline, “Myntra big fashion festival. India’s biggest fashion dhamaka. Don’t waste time,” aptly communicates the scale of the event, positioning it as the go-to destination for every fashion need this festive season, while also apprising shoppers of Myntra’s value offerings as part of the mega event. 

    The concept of the campaign is to take a dig at celeb culture and bring out the bigness of the event, where even the biggest celebs can’t help themselves but to get in on the action, without wasting any time. It is an event so big that everything else seems smaller, including the celebs themselves!

    In this new marketing campaign, Kiara appeals as a fashion trendsetter and Ranbir’s cool demeanor are poised to accelerate conversations around Myntra’s apparel segments. They will play a pivotal role in connecting one of India’s leading fashion, beauty and lifestyle platforms with millions of new and existing fashion-forward consumers. 

    The 30-second ad film is currently live across multiple leading TV channels, social and digital platforms. The campaign aims to amplify recall for Myntra, which is already synonymous with fashion, beauty and lifestyle, during the upcoming festive shopping period. 

    As a part of Myntra’s multi-channel activation, among the most popular and most loved national celebrities, fashion and lifestyle influencers will form an important network of proponents for Myntra’s Big Fashion Festival (BFF). They will engage with a very large fan base across the country and highlight Myntra’s proposition of biggest brands, styles, products and offers to reach every part of the country and demography, with the central message of the campaign that urges shoppers to look nowhere but Myntra for all their festive fashion needs. 

    Speaking about his association with Myntra, Ranbir Kapoor said, “I am excited to be part of Myntra’s festive campaign this year. Fashion plays an important role during festivities and it’s that time of the year when we all refresh our wardrobes. Unarguably, Myntra’s wide collection of styles during the Big Fashion Festival will make customers swoon over.”

    Speaking about her festive campaign, Kiara Advani said, “My festive campaign with Myntra this year is all about the excitement we share while getting ready to shop during the festive period. My association with Myntra , over the last two years, has made me connect with the youth of the country through my love for fashion.”

    Sharing his thoughts on the launch of the campaign, Myntra CEO Nandita Sinha said, “The Big Fashion Festival brings families and loved ones together, with fashion playing a pivotal role in the festivities. This year’s marketing campaign is to highlight the magnanimity of the Big Fashion Festival, showcasing that no reason is bigger for the attention of people across the nation, not even the much-loved celebrities, than this event itself for the festivity. With this campaign, we aim to penetrate our reach to every nook and corner of the country and strike a chord with the fanbase of much beloved superstars Ranbir Kapoor and Kiara Advani.

  • Bombay Shaving Company dives into Kolkata market with new campaign

    Bombay Shaving Company dives into Kolkata market with new campaign

    Mumbai: This festive season, grooming brand Bombay Shaving Company (BSC) has renewed its focus on the Kolkata market with its new campaign – ‘Ebar Pujoy Kartiker Joy’ (Glorify Kartik this Pujo).

    The insightful and cultural campaign is designed to encourage Bengali men to embrace the confidence of grooming, in an authentic flavour, laced with cheer and wit. Historically, the festive season has always been all about the archetype of the strong woman, represented by Durga. However, Bombay Shaving Company took inspiration from Kartik (son of Goddess Durga) considered a symbol of the male ideal –to create awareness and build appeal for male grooming products, said the brand in a statement.

    ‘Kartik er moto dekhte’ (Looks like Karthik) is also an expression used to refer to the ideal man in Bengali.

    The brand has deployed a combination of radio, ambient media, digital geo-fencing around catchments, along with other strategic interventions, like busses and interesting POS to guide customers down the funnel to stores, both offline and online through this campaign. With this, BSC has announced its intent to break out of the internet and meet consumers where they are like established FMCG giants.

    Giving an insight into the campaign, Bombay Shaving Company COO Deepak Gupta said, “There is a rich story existed in the folklore narrating Kartik (son of Goddess Durga) and we decided to bring this symbol alive and encourage all men to look and be their best. We are driving a marketing-led growth agenda at BSC. It’s critical for our category, and there is no better sandbox to test this than Kolkata, during Durga Puja & the ongoing Kartik month. The region is known to be a cultural hub filled with opinion makers and thought leaders, who carry their preferences across the country. We are overjoyed with the initial response and keen to replicate this model in other geographies.”

    The campaign is conceptualised and developed entirely in-house and taken into the heart of Kolkata.
