    Beverage brand Pepsi pays a tribute to friends across the nation by launching a special piece of content in collaboration with popular singer Knox Artiste ahead of Friendship Day. The song is built on an insight wherein the brand conducted a poll and found that in current times,  87% consumers are missing their friends immensely while at home.

     

    Talking about the campaign, Tarun Bhagat, Director-Marketing, Hydration and Cola, PepsiCo India, said: “Through this special content, Pepsi®️ aims at encouraging consumers to celebrate one of the most beautiful emotion of friendship virtually with swag. We are confident that Knox Artiste’s riveting music will have people across the nation want to connect this Friendship Day and set up a virtual party with friends that they’ve missed spending time with for so long.”

     

    Now if Pepsi is a true friend of you and me, would it be encouraging the consumption of an aerated cola?

    Commenting on the association, Amit Tolani, Chief Marketing Officer, Ceat Tyres, said: “We have a strong and long-standing relationship with Royal Enfield and what better occasion than Friendship Day to affirm our partnership? Through conversations on Twitter and Insta/FB posts, Royal Enfield and Ceat are celebrating the long journeys together and the inimitable bond that they share on road and off-road.”

    Inspired by the ‘90s era, Dentsu Webchutney has launched the ‘Logitech Buddy Board’- a keyboard innovation that lets two to five friends play a game together on just one single keyboard.

     

    Said Gurbaksh Singh, Chief Creative Technologist, Dentsu Webchutney: “Hectic work schedules and social media have changed the way we perceive friendship. Things were very different back in the ‘90s. We took this nostalgic hook and decided to hack into the keyboard interface so that at a time five players can play independently with their avatars. With this fun game, we hope to evoke the spirit of friendship the way it was in the ‘90s.”
