    By A Correspondent

     

    Dollar Industries has unveiled a new campaign to promote its existing range of Dollar Bigboss and Dollar Missy.

     

    Post a brand architecture exercise led by LinConsult, the strategic consulting division of Mullen Lowe Lintas Group, this campaign was developed by Lowe Lintas Kolkata.

     

    Said Vinod Kumar Gupta, Managing Director, Dollar Industries Limited:  “We have expanded the Bigboss portfolio to include not just innerwear but also athleisure, gym wear and casuals for men. With our decade long association with Akshay Kumar, our brand has witnessed a 3x times growth. Coming to Dollar Missy, for women, armed with an enviable range of womenswear, we felt it was time for us to break old-standing beliefs as well. Our festive collection consists of 102 colors to choose from. The leggings cater to various occasions and are a perfect fit for the women across various leagues of life.”

     

    Speaking on the idea behind the two campaigns, Janmenjoy Mohanty, Regional Creative Officer, Lowe Lintas added: “Fit Hai Boss as a tagline has always worked wonders for Dollar Bigboss and this time around we have used the phrase to develop a plot which is futuristic but at the same time it delivers a key message – Bigboss can’t be cloned. This imagery goes hand-in-hand with the newly created Dollar brand identity which speaks of the modern times, the science and innovation involved. Akshay is a brilliant actor who pulls off the film with flying colours. With regards to Missy, the concept was derived from the product itself. These easy-to-slip-on legwear are meant for a wide variety of occasions and uses and lends itself perfectly to the idea that today’s multi-tasking woman is game for #SpeedDressing.”

     

    Both the commercials have been directed by adfilm-maker, Shiven Surendranath.

  • Aamir Khan endorses #BeRestless credo for Walkaroo

    By A Correspondent

     

    Footwear brand Walkaroo has released its latest marketing campaign with Aamir Khan as its new brand ambassador. The brand positioning has been done by LinConsult, the strategic consulting arm of MullenLowe Lintas Group.

     

    Reflecting upon Walkaroo’s latest announcement, VKC Noushad, Managing Director said:“We are excited to bring on board Aamir Khan as the brand ambassador as his personality completely resonates with the brand ethos. Aamir Khan is known as a perfectionist and has high regard across the country and beyond.”

     

    Commenting on the campaign idea, Subramanyeswar (Subbu), Group Chief Strategy Officer, MullenLowe Lintas Group added: “When VKC approached LinConsult, the strategic consulting arm of the group, the resolve between us was clear. How do we break the category convention that revolves around functional claims and randomly employed star power, and to capture the soul of the young, bold, new generation, whilst placing themselves under their soles? We believed that for this audience, life is a series of ever evolving dynamic ‘wants’. It’s a relentless progress consumed by ‘what’s next?’ on the personal agenda. In a sense their lives could be summed up by the endeavor of constantly and ceaselessly walking ahead. Their feet have no time to rest. This rang true in their lives in terms of action as well, because these youngsters simply walk to wherever they need to go, even if sometimes their destinations are quite far.”

     

    Commenting on their latest work, Hari Krishnan, President, Lowe Lintas said: “Today’s generation hates settling down. They hate anything to do with resting. They are always restless and constantly chasing something new. We want the brand to embody, endorse and encourage this spirit to remain restless”
