    Said Ajay Vaghani – Managing Director, Hamilton Housewares: “Over these 50 years, much has changed, but our philosophy ‘Kuch Naya Sochte Hain’ continues to guide us while solving our consumers’ everyday problems. Innovation and technology, pioneering breakthroughs and intuitiveness about consumers’ unsaid needs is what helps us develop products to make their lives easier. The TVC, in an endearing way, conveys Milton’s product offerings through the easing of a parent’s daily worries about her child.”

     

    Speaking on the new TVC, Saurabh Kulkarni, Group Creative Director, Ogilvy, added: “Kids will be kids. So, mothers always find solutions to suit their behaviour and lifestyle.

  • Milton expresses the colours of millennial love in latest ad film

    By A Correspondent

     

    Milton has released a new ad film conceptualised by Ogilvy for its Thermosteel range of water bottles.

     

    Said Ajay Vaghani – Managing Director, Hamilton Housewares: “In a way, our choices of colours reflect an aspect of our lives; almost like an extension of our personality. And the youth today visibly seems to resonate with this. They love integrating colours into their lives as a means of echoing the mood or a statement that they choose to make in that moment. It was exciting for Milton to build on this observation. We have a recognized legacy with Thermosteel bottles and with a wide range of colours in this category, we decided to cater to a vibrant young audience. The TVC, in an endearing way, interweaves the drama of colours and emotions through the bottles via a playful narrative. We want the youth of today to continue exploring and expressing their vivacious personalities with Milton by their side.”

     

    Speaking on the new TVC, Anurag Agnihotri- ECD, Ogilvy, says, Bottles and flasks are no longer just a utilitarian product. They have become an accessory for the youth, a means for them to express themselves. They’ve become synonymous to tattoos or jewellery. They are what sets one apart from the crowd. And when Milton introduced a range of colourful flasks, it was the perfect opportunity for us to talk to this youth not through words, but through colours.

    Said Kunal Jeswani, CEO, Ogilvy India: “In today’s high-pressure work environment, small pleasures, like having a warm meal, often get sacrificed. A meal is best enjoyed when it is had warm, if not piping hot! The new Milton microwavable lunch box commercial is a simple product demo film that makes it easy to work when you need to and eat a hot meal whenever you have the time to.”
