    By A Correspondent [updated]

     

    Dr. Fixit, from the house of Pidilite, has unveiled its new TV campaign featuring actor Amitabh Bachchan. The TVC urges consumers to prefer technically correct solutions like Dr. Fixit Roofseal as a remedy for roof repairs and waterproofing, over temporary solutions like paint and patch repair

    Said Vivek Sharma, Chief Marketing Officer, Pidilite Industries: “Waterproofing is a category where often a consumer is not fully educated about correct products and solutions. Therefore, people often resort to quick-fix solutions and end up making the mistake of choosing a wrong waterproofing method. This campaign aims to make people aware about the correct way of waterproofing roofs with Dr. Fixit Roofseal, an elastomeric coating with nano fibres, that protects roofs from water and heat.”

     

    Commenting on the campaign, Talha Bin Mohsin, Executive Creative director, Ogilvy & Mather added: “Dr Fixit offers a range of products for different types of expert waterproofing. This time, we wanted to convey that when it comes to roof one requires an expert product as well, that protects it from heat, rain and moisture for a long time. It is Dr Fixit’s Roofseal that offers expert waterproofing that no one else can match. The ad featuring our brand ambassador Mr Amitabh.

     

     

  • Amitabh Bachchan stars in new Dr. Fixit TVC

    By A Correspondent

     

    Dr. Fixit, the water-proofing brand from Pidilite, has unveiled a new campaign featuring actor Amitabh Bachchan.  The new campaign aims at educating consumers about the importance of complete waterproofing in the construction of a new house.

     

    Said Vivek Sharma, Chief Marketing Officer, Pidilite Industries: “Proper and complete water-proofing remains a vexing issue in Indian homes. Through this campaign, Dr. Fixit continues to educate consumers about the need to do complete waterproofing and makes it more accessible to consumers, contractors and dealers alike in easy ways across all touch-points.”

     

    Added Talha Bin Mohsin, Executive Creative Director, Ogilvy & Mather: “People are used to using either Dr. Fixit LW+ or Dr. Fixit URP for waterproofing while making new houses, but complete waterproofing can only be achieved when both of these are used. To explain this, we decided to capitalize on cricket season with an analogy that would resonate with everyone, the bat and ball. Just like cricket can’t be played with only one of them, waterproofing too can’t be done with just LW+ or URP, you need both. Sometimes, all it takes to change behavior is explaining a complicated concept with extreme simplicity and a slice of fun.”

    By A Correspondent

     

    Tata Sky has launched its latest campaign in Kannada, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam languages to communicate its advantages over cable in the market. The campaign titled, ‘Jinga Jinga Jingalala’ focuses on how easy and convenient it is to choose Tata Sky to fit an individual’s budget and content needs.

     

    Said Anurag Kumar, Chief Communications Officer, Tata Sky: “So far, people here believed that DTH is an expensive choice and deprived themselves of the quality and innovative services. The recent TRAI channel pricing regime has provided parity in price giving us an opportunity to provide subscribers with quality entertainment using easy and simple steps at an affordable price. Therefore, via this campaign we are not only breaking the myth on pricing, we are also urging people to Not compromise on the ease and advantages that Tata Sky brings to life.”

     

    Speaking on the new campaign, Sukesh Nayak, Chief Creative Officer, Ogilvy & Mather said: “The campaign idea originated from an observation about our childhood. Right from our childhood days we always had a healthy fear of our father, especially when we were doing something that was out of line. Using this observation, we establish the fact that buying tata Sky is not out of line and the father will approve of it.”

  • Titan Raga redefines a woman’s beauty through a unique lens

    By A Correspondent

     

    Taking the brand’s conversation ‘Khudse Naya Rishta’ forward, Titan Raga’s latest TVC questions the idea of beauty. The film showcases women from different walks of life, who wear their scars with pride. And flaunt their imperfections with confidence and grace.

     

    Said Suparna Mitra, CMO, Titan Watches: “The beauty of a woman does not lie in a societally imposed idea of perfection, but rather, in her acceptance of her unique beauty. Design stories that celebrate the allure of imperfection are at the core of the product truth of the Raga ‘I Am’ collection. ‘I Am’ designs bring to life the asymmetry and unpredictability abound in nature. This collection embodies the true spirit of individuality, a fitting tribute to the woman of today.”

     

    Added Azazul Haque, Chief Creative Officer, Ogilvy & Mather: “Titan Raga has always celebrated women. And has always questioned stereotypical thinking. This time, it questions stereotyping of beauty. Why are pregnancy marks not celebrated? Why are they flaws? Why do dark circles need make-up to hide them? This campaign raises such questions and tells women to flaunt their flaws and not hide them because every part of them is beautiful. Every mark, every scar, every wrinkle is beautiful. And Titan Raga celebrates that beauty.”

     

     

  • Ceat promotes Gripp X3 range of tyres in latest campaign

    By A Correspondent

     

    Ceat has launched its latest campaign to communicate the message of its Gripp X3 range of tyres.

     

    Said Nitish Bajaj, Senior VP, Marketing, Ceat Ltd: “Our Gripp X3 brand campaign has been created to generate consumer awareness and promote the benefits of a tyre that has an ‘Everlasting’ grip. This campaign brings alive the key benefits of our Gripp X3 tyres developed on a consumer insight that consumers become less confident while driving with old tyres. The campaign highlights the Gripp X3 tyre with dual compound technology that provides a grip as good as a new tyre even when the tyres become old, thereby allowing the rider to ride tension free. Furthermore, this launch of CEAT Gripp X3 delivers on our vision of Making Mobility Safer and Smarter, Everyday.”

     

    Added Rohit Dubey, Group Creative Director, Ogilvy & Mather: “Consumer’s involvement with bike tyres is extremely low. Most riders only think about their tyres once in approximately two years when it is time to replace them. In this scenario, we built involvement with the product by making engagement, central to our creative thought of landing the benefit of Gripp X3, a tyre that maintains its standard of performance over time. This also allowed us to leverage multiple executions across digital and social media, to increase salience.”
