    Britannia launches campaign for new NutriChoice Herbs & Seeds Cookies

    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.”

    Britannia Good Day has launched a ‘Surprise Cookie pack’ with a high voltage campaign.
    Commenting on the launch, Vinay Subramaniam, Vice President, Marketing, Britannia Industries Limited, said: “Good Day is Britannia’s largest brands. Ask any consumer about Britannia Good Day and they will immediately describe the wonderful butter and cashew cookies. Now Britannia Good Day has launched a mouthwatering Chocochip cookie. To create intrigue and interest, we have launched a few special edition packs called the “Surprise Cookie”. Now that the surprise has been revealed, we are launching our brand new Britannia Good Day Chocochip Cookies in the country. The campaign was a fun and engaging way to launch our new Chocolate Chip cookies from Britannia Good Day and the response has been overwhelming (no surprises there)”.

     

    Bringing in her creative perspective Priya Shivkumar, National Creative Director, JWT added: “Well, we all like our surprises, don’t we? We wanted communication to deliver one as unique as the Good Day Surprise Pack, so we decided to switch things around and make it interesting with our Influencer Swap. Popular Celebrities switched personalities to delight their audiences with a generous dose of humour and wit. Song, rap, stand-up comedy or commentary, the routes were many, but the result was audiences seeing and enjoying their much adored idols in a delightful new role thanks to the fun, quirky, full-of-flavour surprise delivered in true ‘Good Day” style.”

  • The spot captures the mischievous relationship that we see between parents and children these days

    Grey executes new campaign for Britannia Cake

    By A Correspondent

     

    Grey Bangalore has launched a new TVC for Britannia Cake that sees a father-son duo caught in the most important question of the hour: Who gets to eat the cake? Who deserves it more? We see the father narrate a tale where he is recounting an incident when the child was much younger. He claims that when the boy’s Britannia Cake pack was stolen by a monkey, he undertook great risks to bring it back to the child. That, according to the father, is a jolly good reason why the cake pack should be all his.

     

    Just when we think that the child is convinced and the father has gotten away with his fibbing, we realise that the child is not as gullible as we had presumed him to be. After all, he is also his father’s son! With a sign off that reads, “Yummy waali shararat”, this spot nicely captures the mischievous relationship that we see between parents and children these days.

     

    Said Vishal Ahluwalia, Vice President and Business Head, Grey Bangalore: “The challenge for Grey was to capture the magic between parents and kids through the lens of a delicious Britannia Cake and tell the story in a disruptive form. All credit must go to team Britannia who were bold enough to accept a new storytelling format and believe in a film which was conceptualised on a wide fantastical canvas”.

     

    “Britannia has positioned bar cakes as the perfect treat for kids, both in terms of health and delight. However, with this campaign we have refreshed the positioning to bring out the more universal appeal of cakes. With “Yummy Wali Shararat” we want to talk about how this category brings out the child in each of us. What better way to bring this to life than good humoured leg pulling between a father and a son”, said Manjunath Desai, Vice President Strategy & Business Development, Britannia Industries Limited. The TVC has been released across 10 languages, nationally.
