    By Our Staff

     

    Bikano, the snack and packaged food manufacturing company, has launched a new TVC about Indians who reside away from home and crave wholesome homemade Indian food.

     

    Said Manish Aggarwal, Director, Bikano, Bikanervala Foods Pvt Ltd: “For Indians, Maa ke haath ka khana is always the best, no matter where we go. And on all special occasions, all that we want is to taste that wholesome goodness of homemade Indian fare. Since that’s not easy for people living abroad, Bikano has decided to bring to them ‘Maa ka Pyaar, Ma ka Dulaar’ wrapped in frozen packs of Bikano Punjabi Samosa, Bikano Shahi Paneer, Bikano Garlic Tandoori Naan and Bikano Paneer Pakoda. All they have to do is warm or fry them, as required, and suddenly the aromas wafting from your dining table will remind you of your mother’s kitchen no matter where you may live. We are glad that with this new TVC we have been able to touch the hearts of several Indians living far away from their mothers and hope they now know that they can count on Bikano’s frozen food range to satiate the craving for quality homemade Indian food.”
