  • 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.

Our product solves a real problem of finding the right balance between lunch breaks and work. The communication focuses on the solution by highlighting the core benefit of our tiffin while taking the viewer on a journey that is both engaging and entertaining.”

     

    Added Anurag Agnihotri – Executive Creative Director, Ogilvy India: “Milton’s microwaveable steel tiffin – Microwow solves a real problem. One can’t choose a hot lunch over  work. This innovation lets you have a piping hot lunch at any hour. The film brings this eternal conflict alive, where the boss represents work and the wife, lunch. Now one can keep both happy.’’

     

    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.”
