    Medimix rolls out new TVC with regional stars Amruta Khanvilkar and Kinal Rajpriya

    MUMBAI: Medimix launched its new TVC featuring celebrated Marathi actress Amruta Khanvilkar and popular Gujarati star Kinjal Rajpriya. The campaign marks a step in the brand’s localized narrative building journey – spotlighting culturally resonant, relatable skincare narratives powered by the time-tested wisdom of Ayurveda.

    With a legacy of over five decades, Medimix has been trusted by millions for its time-tested Ayurvedic formulations that combine the wisdom of tradition with the needs of today’s consumers.

    Medimix has long been synonymous with effective, herbal-based products rooted in its Ayurvedic heritage. At the heart of the brand lies its soul: the power of 18 herbs- a signature blend of ingredients perfected over time and passed down like a family secret, forming the foundation of every Medimix soap, addressing everyday skin concerns like pimples, dryness and sensitivity with natural, fast-acting care.

    This new campaign reinforces Medimix’s ‘Skin-Fit’ agenda – helping users have a clear & glowing skin. The film blends regional flavor with universal skincare truths. Amruta plays a confident, glowing protagonist who has embraced Ayurveda as a way of life. Starring opposite her, Kinjal portrays the relatable consumer dealing with common urban skin stressors like pollution and dullness. Through their warm, engaging exchange, the film shows how Medimix helps transform daily nakhras into real, lasting nikhaar. As part of its continued efforts to build stronger connections with audiences across the key geography, the brand is deepening its focus on culturally relevant partnerships. By collaborating with a regional icon like Amruta Khanvilkar, Medimix aims to strengthen its presence in key markets and take its message of natural skincare and holistic wellness to the heartlands of India.

    Speaking on her association with the brand, Amruta Khanvilkar shared, “Medimix has always felt like home – a name I grew up with and trusted. To now be part of the Medimix family is truly special. This isn’t just another endorsement for me, it’s deeply personal. I believe in gentle, effective and natural skin care, which is exactly what Medimix stands for.”

    Kinjal Rajpriya mirrored the sentiment, “Medimix is a legacy brand that’s still so relevant today. While skincare trends may come and go, Medimix proves that some things are simply timeless. I’m proud to represent the brand for Gujarat and bring the benefits of Ayurveda to a wider audience.”

    Cholayil Private Ltd CEO Anupam Katheriya commented, “This new TVC is a reflection of our vision – to reinforces it’s regional connect in core geographies. Amruta and Kinjal are the perfect ambassadors for our hyperlocal approach, as we deepen our connection with consumers in Maharashtra and Gujarat. With a 45% volume share in Maharashtra’s natural segment and strong MAT growth in Gujarat (IMRB Panel), these markets are vital to our continued momentum.”

    The campaign supports Medimix’s broader brand journey: We’ve always believed in skincare that’s rooted in tradition yet relevant to today’s lifestyle. Today, the brand’s portfolio spans soaps, handwashes, bodywashes, and facewashes – each rooted in Ayurveda, tailored for modern skin needs.

    The TVC is now live across online and offline channels. Watch the film here:

    Ayurvedic personal care brand Medimix has announced a new campaign ‘Skinfit Raho, Manmarziyaan Karo,’ featuring Katrina Kaif. With this new campaign the brand aims to further strengthen this and connect with the younger audience.

    Katrina Kaif has been signed as a brand ambassador recently by the brand. Medimix has a brand positioning of ‘Get SkinFit with fast-acting Ayurveda’.

  • Why Medimix decided to partner KKR for Dream11 IPL

    Why Medimix decided to partner KKR for Dream11 IPL

    NEW DELHI: Herbal soap brand Medimix has opened its innings as the official SkinFit and hygiene partner of two-time Indian Premier League (IPL) champions, Kolkata Knight Riders. The brand logo is present on the team’s trouser and will be there throughout the series including the league matches and final matches.

    Medimix is giving utmost importance to the players’ health and hygiene by providing hand sanitizer dispensers – thereby ensuring a safe, germ-free environment for the team.

    The company has recently forayed into the handwash and hand-sanitizers category, and believes that its stint as an IPL sponsor will give it better reach since cricket cuts across customer demographics.

    Medimix has a strong presence in the east and south India.  West Bengal is one of the key markets for them and hence the brand decided to back KKR.

    “The association fits well with the business strategy to augment the brand awareness leading to business growth in the eastern markets. We are confident that we will be able to unlock the full the potential of this relationship,” explains Cholayil head of marketing Ashish Ohlyan.

    Covid2019 created an opportunity for the brand to expand its product portfolio and add handwash and sanitisers to it. Earlier they were mostly focused on bathing soaps related products.

    Medimix has released separate ad films for both sanitisers and handwash. The social media campaign with the message 'Ab har situation keliye skin fit bane' (Get #SkinFit for any situation) showcases a young woman acknowledging the new world order post the pandemic, and reinforces the idea of keeping your skin safe and fit, not just indoors but also outdoors when it is exposed to germs, dust and pollution. She uses the sanitisers to ensure her safety. The campaign is conceptualised by Leo Burnett India.

    Recently, the brand also released another ad for its handwash category where it showcases a young man returning home after office but is unable to hug his daughter as the latter asks him to first wash his hands using the Medimix hand wash.

    Medimix attempts to maximise its social media presence in an outreach to customers seems to be paying dividends. Ohlyan shares, "The campaign #Skinfit received appreciation from various stakeholders. In fact, the digital affinity such gave good results that we compiled some of these comments and released a full-page newspaper ad to showcase our digital media prowess.”

    He elaborated that the brand’s core target audience is growing: it’s a mix of traditional and new-age shoppers, mostly from the young and mid-generation, who seek ayurvedic products for their au naturel lifestyle. “This audience has lack of time and patience and seeks faster results from the products that they use,” adds Ohlyan.

    Due to the pandemic, people have become more conscious of their health and hygiene, which has resulted in a driving demand for personal care products. A drastic shift towards herbal or ayurvedic products has also been observed owing to growing awareness regarding benefits of organic goods.

    A media report says that the personal care market in India has been pegged at Rs 18,400 crores, largely dominated by soaps, while the market estimate for handwashing soaps stands at Rs 8,000 crore.

    According to Ohlyan, the personal care segment is playing a big role in the brand’s expansion phase.

    "When the lockdown was imposed in the country to curb the virus, the company faced logistic issues in the initial days. But, in the last few months, we have been able to recover and have shown a positive result in the first half and we are all striving towards keeping the momentum going so that we end the financial year with vigorous growth,” he says.

    Medimix has not only retained loyal consumers but also attracting newer ones as the brand is constantly reinventing through the innovative marketing mix, adds Ohlyan. The brand will be launching new products like face wash, body wash, etc. to attract new-age consumers. He elaborates: “While conscious urban consumers are driving the growth of the natural segment, rural consumers are not far behind, they are shifting from unbranded or homemade products to these.”

    Medimix has been advertising across different mediums and understands that one medium alone can’t provide all the reach needed and it is important to mix-match all consumer touchpoints to communicate with the consumers. Ohlyan explains: “You have to break down barriers between channels, and uniformly empower the consumer and engage them. The choice of media and the proportion of spends for these mediums varies depending on the affinity these mediums have with our target audience.”

    However, the company refused to answer about the sales figure it is aiming at in the hand sanitizer category, maintaining the line that these are early days and the product has just been launched. “The initial response is good and we aim to further build the awareness through KKR association and various other media activities.” 

    "For a brand to survive and stay relevant to the current age, it must reinvent itself and its offering to suit the evolving needs of the consumers,” believes Ohlyan.

    Brand Medimix has been in the market since 1969 and offers a wide variety of products to the consumers including – Medimix, Cuticura, Krishna, Thulasi, Sadayush, Dr Sidan’s and others.  

  • Medimix forays into handwash category

    Medimix forays into handwash category

    NEW DELHI: Handwash brands have been making a merry this year as the Covid2019 induced pandemic has increased the health and hygiene concerns for the people. They are following the handwash protocols strictly than ever and this has increased the need for the handwash and soaps in the market.

    Starting March 2020, when PM Modi announced the first lockdown in the country, several big and small brands have forayed into this category. The market, since then, has widened, become competitive and so has the distribution expanded with it.

    Amid this, Medimix, a leading player in the soap category, has unveiled a new campaign marking its foray into the handwash category with the launch of its new product Medimix Ayurvedic handwash.

    The campaign captures the current situation where the pandemic has put personal hygiene and care in the spotlight and along with it the benefits of using natural products.

    The film focuses on the product's proposition of protection and care. The campaign rides on insight that while India is washing hands more often than ever, they tend to do so with harsh chemical based washes, which end up harming the quality of their hand skin in the long run.

    The TVC highlights how the Medimix handwash not only protects hands against germs, but also plays the role of ‘healer’, by nourishing the skin as well. The campaign is supported by digital media.

    Leo Burnett India national creative director Sachin Kamble said, “Leveraging Medimix’s heritage, its Ayurvedic handwash brings the trusted solution of natural ingredients which protects the skin against germs and any kind of damage. Our campaign brings this message forth with a simple but impactful film.”

     Cholayil head of marketing Ashish Ohlyan said, “Being one of the biggest Ayurvedic personal care brands worldwide, we wanted to offer a handwash which doesn’t have to rely on harmful chemicals for germ protection. The task was to communicate this differentiation in this hyper active category in a simple but convincing manner. We feel that the new campaign is doing that just right by clearly highlighting the product benefits.”

    Media reports say that the personal wash care market in India has been pegged at Rs 18,400 crore, largely dominated by soaps and the market estimate for handwashing soaps stands at Rs 8,000 crore.

    Cholayil has a big portfolio – Medimix, Cuticura, Krishna Thulasi, Sadayush, Dr Sidhan’s.  They have always had a strong presence in soap and bathing bars and this is the first time they are getting into the hand wash category.

    Medimix has always been a big advertiser and been present on different platforms.
