    Social Pill, a digital marketing agency, has launched a Diwali campaign for home furnishing brand Bella Casa – #GharKaMakeover.

     

    Speaking about the campaign, Gaurav Gupta, Director of Operations, Bella Casa Fashion Retail Limited said: “Through #GharKaMakeover with Bella Casa, our aim is to provide our customers with the absolute best for their homes. We want them to give their homes as much importance as themselves.” He added, “With the sale during Diwali, we hope, we’re able to provide comfort and luxury to our customers at an affordable price.”

     

    Added Rajnish Rawat, CEO, Social Pill: “People often just shop for themselves when a festival arrives. Before Diwali, it is a norm that we clean our houses for the festivities. But what about shopping for your home? Your home is an extension of yourself so why not give your house a makeover? Moreover, you add to comfort too. So, it’s not just decorations and pomp but a peaceful night’s sleep after all the hustle and bustle and #GharKaMakeover is exactly what’s needed to grab the attention of the consumers to the right place.”

    Paprika Media has announced the second edition of Time Out Food Awards that is scheduled to be held in March 2014. In its second edition, the awards will recognise the work of culinary masters of all kinds – contemporary, classic, fusion, traditional, experimental – in two separate categories, Critics’ Choice and People’s Choice.

     

    “We’ve maintained the central credo that informs the Food & Drink section of Time Out magazines the world over to decide the nominees, and winners, in the ten Critics’ Choice categories,” said Jaideep Giridhar, Editor-in-Chief, Time Out India. “We have attempted to maintain the same sense of objectivity and transparency in the judging process that we employ in our restaurant reviews.”

     

    But perhaps the most gruelling test of talent will present itself in the form of the 27 Peoples’ Choice categories, which cover seven Indian cities and span a wide range of cuisines and eating experiences. “The Food & Drink category is special for Time Out readers and globally we are known for our food reviews and recommendations. Encompassing smaller of cities and more categories in the People’s Choice was a conscious decision because we wanted to give a voice to the gourmands of India , that came from the lesser known parts of the country,” said Rajnish Rawat, the COO and Publisher of Time Out magazines in India.

     

    The awards show will be promoted through 360 degree media channels.
