  • Britannia launches campaign for new NutriChoice Herbs & Seeds Cookies

    By Our Staff

     

    Britannia unveils a campaign to launch its new NutriChoice Herbs & Seeds Cookies. The brand film has been conceptualised by Talented, an independent creative agency, and produced by Lucifer Circus, a Mumbai-based production house.

     

    Said Amit Doshi, Chief Marketing Officer at Britannia Industries Limited: “The NutriChoice portfolio has grown over the years by actively responding to changing consumer expectations around healthy snacking. The effort is to identify good-for-you ingredients through the convenience and taste of a cookie. It’s the reason we launched NutriChoice Diabetic Friendly Essentials Oats and Ragi cookies, and more recently cookies with 20% Protein. Our latest cookie launches are NutriChoice Seeds & NutriChoice Herbs – with the power of 5 Seeds & 5 Herbs. Playing up the ingredient story was essential – and I’m glad we found a truly entertaining way.”

     

    Added PG Aditiya – Co Founder & CCO, Talented: “These seeds & herbs haven’t belonged together in a cookie – they’ve been in shampoos, cough drinks and sambar, all independently. It’s for the benefit of you, the consumer that they’ve come together – leaving the baggage of their ‘old jobs’. For your immunity. For your convenience. Shout out to our director – Shayak Roy – whose vision brought this film (and each of its ingredients) to life. I have never relied purely on a director’s instinct as much as I did for this launch.”

     

    Shayak Roy, Director, Lucifer Circus said: “I love the way PG and the team at Talented drafted the script. Casting was key. Each element of the film from inside the biscuit, to each seed and herb was curated with a lot of effort put in by PG and I. We needed to make sure each cast member resonates the bizarre reality we were attempting. Grateful for the freedom team talented allowed me to execute this vision. Rarely does one come across films with so many layers; looking forward to collaborating with master craftsman, PG and the team at talented again.”

    Alniche Lifesciences, specialty healthcare company, launches the awareness campaign on #GutHealthAwareness across various hospitals. This is in cooperation with key opinion leaders (KOL) to spread awareness and improve the understanding of the patients related to the gastrointestinal issues like Constipation.

     

    December being a constipation awareness month, this campaign highlights the fact that constipation sufferers are concerned about the condition, however very few are willing to discuss it with their immediate family or friends due to the “social taboo”.  Most are shy about seeking medical help to solve their problem. There are some sufferers who have never treated constipation and some have resorted to home remedies to treat the condition.

     

    Dr. Anil Verma, Consultant Gastroenterologist, Sarvodya Hospital Ghaziabad said: “People often neglect constipation and delay seeking medical help. By leading a healthy lifestyle, eating right, embracing physical exercises, and having ample water to keep the body hydrated constipation can be avoided.”

     

    Girish Arora, Founder & MD Alniche Lifesciences added: “Due to faulty diet and lifestyle habits, the problem of constipation is rising in India, especially in urban population. We want to create a healthcare ecosystem that enables people to live fuller lives by launching such multipronged education campaigns.”

  • Parle-G launches three-film campaign to enhance brand

    By Our Staff

     

    Parle-G biscuits launches a campaign to enhance the equity of the brand. The three-film campaign created by Thought Blurb Communications tells simple stories that show the protagonist child as empathetic, clever and decisive. All the qualities that come together to create the Parle-G ‘Genius’.

     

    Mayank Shah, Senior Category Head, Parle Products speaks about the brand’s core values and the need for the messaging to be consistent over time. “Parle-G has always spoken from the child’s perspective. A child creates social connections with siblings, family, friends and others they care about in very different ways. Empathy comes easily at an early age and in uncomplicated terms. Before they are lost to age and practicality, an understanding of others can be rather sincere and honest. Taking this into account, the messaging has to acknowledge the child’s feelings and give it voice.”

     

    Vinod Kunj, CCO & Managing Director at Thought Blurb added: “Following a campaign thought over years and growing the brand with it requires a firm hold on the steering wheel. From our previous outings on the brand in 2018 & 2020, we had to find a growth path. That was the challenge.  We knew that we needed to stay timeless with our thinking, while keeping the overall brand thought in our sights. We know the stories had to resonate with audience across age groups and geographies, since this being broadcast in 13 languages. One of the endearing aspects of the campaign is the song that paraphrases the idea, and to see it shining through in every language is rewarding.”
