    Mountain Dew’s launches summer campaign with Hrithik Roshan

    Mumbai: Mountain Dew has launched its 2024 summer campaign with a new storyline of purposeful courage, a story about overcoming fear to save a friend.

Until one of them i.e., Hrithik Roshan, spots the fast-approaching tornado and his friend trapped under a car. In that moment of fear, the decision is between bracing the Tornado to save a friend or making a u-turn. That’s when Hrithik turns to Mountain Dew, gulps on it and powers ahead to bravely rescues his friend. The jaw-dropping action thriller reinforces Mountain Dew’s mantra of ‘Darr Ke Aage Jeet Hai.’

    Speaking on the campaign, PepsiCo India category head, Mountain Dew Akankshaa Dalal said, “We have always been a brand that has stood for courage, our tagline ‘Darr ke Aage Jeet Hai” lives the narrative not just for the brand but for India a country where pushing boundaries is the new norm. The brand has always acknowledged that fear is inevitable, it creates resistance, but it is courage that enables a single step ahead taking us to the point of ‘liberation’ or ‘victory’. So far, we have celebrated this as a personal triumph but for the first time Mountain Dew through this new summer campaign has brought a ‘purposeful courage’ narrative to the forefront. A story about overcoming fear to save someone else it is. When you have a tagline like ‘Darr ke Aage Jeet Hai’ and a brand ambassador like ‘Hrithik’ they are so synonymous with the brand that you don’t have to look to far to find meaning.”
