  • Gionee looks to make a mark with #Selfiestan

    By A Correspondent

     

    Mullen Lintas Delhi has developed an idea called “#Selfiestan” for Gioneeto differentiate Gionee A1 from any comparison in the world of selfies.

     

    Speaking on the launch of the campaign, Arvind R Vohra, Managing Director and Country Head, GioneeIndia said: “The Gionee A1 is the new language of fun, laughter and sharing. As we launch the new device in India, we want to offer a new expression to young users today. #Selfiestan is the embodiment of a world where people can express themselves freely and showcase their love for selfies. We at Gionee India are proud to bring our own version of selfies to India with the #Selfiestan campaign. The film reflects the unique concept perfectly.”

     

    The campaign stars Alia Bhatt, one of the brand ambassadors of Gionee. Mullen Lintas Delhi has designed the campaign to leverage the uniqueness of the content. Given that it’s a new launch of the phone, the campaign starts with a teaser on Outdoors and TV and is backed by aggressive drive across Print, Digital, Radio and Activation as well.

     

    Highlighting the creative thought process behind the campaign, Amer Jaleel, Chairman and Chief Creative Officer, Mullen Lintas said: “Our belief in Gionee being a huge, centre of the market brand, led us to strategise towards not just feature-led smartphones, but towards having a POV. So while other brands are still saying why they are good for Selfies, Gionee chooses to take the larger platform, that of owning the world of Selfies, which we branded as #Selfiestan. It is the equivalent of Lennon’s ‘Imagine’ anthem for today”.
