    The magical fragrance of Lux that’s driving Khan ‘Bekaboo’ (helpless against his emotions) has been created by world renowned perfumer Didier Gaffet. Inspired by the Kenzo Flower and keeping in mind the sensory preferences of Indian women; this Master Perfumer has created a fragrance that will make Indian woman feel elegant and polished.

    Says Khan, “The fragrance of Lux reminds me of being happy and being in love.”

    Khan and Kaif’s sizzling chemistry can be seen radiating through the campaign, that’s been beautifully shot and directed by French director- Juan Delcan. The Sufi inspired music score has been composed by none other than world acclaimed Poet and Lyricist Gulzar and sung by the Voice of the Country Sonu Niigaam. Katrina has been styled by leading Bollywood fashion designer Rocky S.

    At the shoot, Khan said, “I’m happy to be associated with Lux yet again! The fragrance of Lux will captivate you just as it has made me ‘Bekaboo’. The fragrance of Lux that stands for love and sensuality brings out the lover in me”.

    Kaif added, “Lux for me is a very special and iconic brand; it symbolizes beauty. When I think of Lux, I think of fun and spontaneity. Lux embodies a type of a woman rather than just soap and of course the fragrance that embodies sensuality. Lux’s amazing fragrance makes the whole experience of bathing fun!”

  • Katrina Kaif is leading brand ambassador: Ormax Media

    Mumbai: Ormax Media, the media research and consulting firm, has conducted a recall study on celebrity-brand association. As per the study, Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif is the most powerful celebrity endorser, at least amongst five top celebrities.

    The study was conducted to measure the brand association of Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, MS Dhoni and Sachin Tendulkar with the various brands they endorse.

    Ormax Media plans to cover other celebrity endorsers such as Shahrukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, Priyanka Chopra and Virat Kohli in the next wave of the celebrity association track.

    For the study, 13 brand-celebrity combinations crossed an association score of 15. The score is a measure of the strength of the association. Katrina Kaif takes three out of the top four slots, with Slice being a clear leader followed by Lux and Veet for the Bollywood actress. Salman Khan has only one brand- Wheel making the cut, though Ormax Media believes this is because Salman remains a very selective endorser and most of his endorsements started only recently.

    Kareena Kapoor has association score of 23 and 21 for Limca and Head & Shoulders respectively. She also scores 15+ for endorsing Boroplus. Dhoni has found place in the top 13 brand-celebrity association for Pepsi, Lays and Aircel while Tendulkar occupies two positions for Boost and Pepsi.

It reflects all the values that have been at the core of our brand philosophy as well the vision and direction in which we aim to grow.”
