    By A Correspondent

     

    Asian Paints has launched a campaign to establish Ultima Protek as the gold standard of exterior emulsion.  Conceptualised by Ogilvy India, the ad has been directed by Manoj Pillai.

     

    Speaking about the new ad campaign, Jaideep Kanse, CMO, Asian Paints Limited said: “Kerala has always been a flagbearer in the country to set the roadmap as far as the exterior painting is concerned. The consumers of Kerala clearly understand their requirements from the exteriors considering the vagaries of weather the state undergoes. Asian Paints has always pioneered technology led innovation through its products to bring to consumers nothing but the best. This campaign is yet another step in that direction where Ultima Protek will be one stop solution to all the current problems pertaining to exterior walls”.

     

    Added Kiran Anthony, CCO, Ogilvy India: “A world renowned home needs a world-class paint that keeps paayal (algae) and vilal (cracks) away. In this series, Joesettan is seen sharing this recipe to a stunning home freely with a worldwide audience drawn to the beauty of his home”.

    Speaking about the new ad campaign, Amit Syngle, COO, Asian Paints Limited said: “Today’s consumer is more aware and believes in making healthy choices that are safe and hygienic, especially when it comes to their homes. Asian Paints “Royale Health Shield” is one such healthy choice for a consumer to make to ensure their walls are bacteria-free.

And the result is evident in their performances.”

     

     

  • Asian Paints launches new campaign with Ranbir Kapoor

    By A Correspondent

     

    Asian Paints has launched a campaign to establish Ultima Protek as the gold standard in protection for the exteriors of every home. Conceptualised by Ogilvy India, the ad is directed by Prasoon Pandey. The film portrays Ranbir Kapoor as an aspiring politician.

     

    Speaking about the new ad, Amit Syngle, COO, Asian Paints Limited said: “The consumer of today is showing more involvement in the painting process and is clearly looking for products offering unique solutions. Asian Paints Ultima has been at the forefront of technology led innovation. Ultima Protek, with its Lamination Guard and 10-year performance warranty, is the Gold standard of exterior paints today. Consumer research on exterior painting threw up a powerful mnemonic – ‘Lamination’, a term that they interpreted to imply strong protection from multiple elements – water, dust and time itself. In this new film with Ranbir Kapoor, this ‘lamination led protection’ is juxtaposed with a topic that evokes a passionate interest among Indian consumers – politics.”

     

    Added Sukesh Nayak, Chief Creative Officer, Ogilvy Mumbai: “The film is a humorous take based on the life of a politician, whose life is full of ups and downs. And how the protection given to his house by Asian Paints Ultima Protek, gives the politician the confidence to just keep going on. No matter what.”

     

     

  • Asian Paints illustrates the importance of doing great work in new digital film

    By A Correspondent

     

    Asian Paints has launched a new digital film for its adhesives range of products. The new brand film titled ‘Screaming Furniture’, featuring Nawazuddin Siddiqui has been conceptualised by McCann India.

     

    Speaking about the new digital film, Amit Syngle, COO, Asian Paints Limited said: “Ever since its launch, the Asian Paints Adhesives range has always stood for providing a modern and progressive choice, a Choice Tarakki Ki, to customers and applicators through its range of innovative and high-performance products. With this new film, we are aiming to strengthen this position even further, amongst the target segment. This film is a fun & engaging watch. It takes the brand message and creatively weaves in the insight that a perfect job is crucial to earning a perfect reputation in the market. And with Asian Paints Adhesives, you will always get a perfect job done!”

     

    Added Suraja Kishore, Executive VP & GM – McCann Mumbai: “Adhesives as a category have been far too long stuck in a grimy sweaty functional space. Coming from Asian Paints, key point of difference for our adhesives is that it helps carpenters achieve not just function but also form and finesse. To bring alive this point our campaign creatively amplifies the idea that liability of not using Asian Paints Adhesives is to be remembered for a shoddy job. The insight that every time a furniture makes a creaking noise we don’t blame the adhesives we rather blame the carpenter has been cleverly amplified in an amusing manner. We are excited to rewrite the rules of the category and make Asian Paints adhesive synonymous with design and décor rather than mere functional benefit of just great bonding.”
