    Grasshoppers’ Director, Arjun Banerjee said, “Working for a TV channel brand, a first for us, will be exciting because the dynamic nature of the TV industry requires the agency to be extremely innovative for the campaign to stand out from the clutter and interest the target audience. Since NDTV Good Times is known for its impulsive, interactive and action oriented content and programming, there is a lot of scope for us to create edgy and call to action creatives which will appeal to the targeted youth and encourage them to embrace the channel’s ideology of ‘#LiveYoung #LiveIndian’.”
