Marico’s Saffola Masala Oats has launched a new campaign during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. The two commercials are conceptualised by Madison Communications with the creative concept by Mullen Lintas and executed by Disney+ Hotstar Creative Works.
Expressing his excitement about the collaboration, Vaibhav Bhanchawat, Chief Operating Officer- India & Foods Business, Marico Limited said: “We’re thrilled to have Sanjay Manjrekar for this campaign. His playful and relatable personality perfectly complements the campaign’s light-hearted approach, highlighting the brand’s ability to satisfy cravings without compromising on health and taste. Cricket, especially with this ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, is synonymous with passion and energy, just like the emotions we experience around snacking. Sanjay’s presence brings that same kind of excitement to the campaign, reminding viewers that Saffola Masala Oats becomes their go-to choice for those who seek both health and taste in their snacks, especially during the high-octane environment of this tournament.”
Added Jolene Solanki, Chief Operating Officer- Madison Media Ultra: “Snacking and sports go hand in hand, while many snacking brands take this opportunity to be present during the sport, we at Madison believe that just being present with the regular TVC will only build awareness. Brands spend a huge amount of money on sporting events but very few focus on blending both media and creative together and be relevant, that’s when you make your investments work harder. Conceptualizing the idea and creating a special creative with Sanjay Manjrekar and his famous, trendy line “Behave” along with Saffola Masala oats helped us be relevant during the ICC Men’s T20 World cup 2024.”
