Over the years, Asian Paints has pioneered technology led innovations through its product offerings to bring to consumers nothing but the best. Lamination Guard technology in Ultima Protek is designed to laminate their homes and protect its beauty for years to come. This campaign clearly establishes Ultima Protek, with its Lamination technology, as the Gold Standard of exterior paints.”

  • Coca-Cola campaign on need for +ve energy

    By A Correspondent

     

    We all know of the health hazards of cola beverages, but many of us continue to consume them. Coca-Cola has unveiled a new campaign takes claims how dull, lethargic moments are transformed into uplifting ones when one reaches out for the beverage. The new TV commercial stars brand ambassador and the no-longer-superstar actor Ranbir Kapoor.

     

    Commenting on the campaign, Shrenik Dasani, Vice President – Sparkling Category, Coca-Cola India and South West Asia, said: “The campaign is our attempt at encouraging people to reimagine what they could do to their daily dull moments with a Coke. We’ve been inspired by how teens think about their daily lives and, often with a Coke, how they effortlessly transform even dull moments into epic ones.

     

    While the age-old norm has been to take a pause during idle time, today’s teens are different. They’re not looking to contemplate, they’re looking to participate. They don’t want downtime, they want uptime. And rather than taking breaks once or twice a day, they are fluid, constantly on the move and shifting gears. All this of course needs a lot of positive energy… something a Coke can provide like no other!”

     

    We would recommend consuming the cola with care. And would say a fresh juice or a butter milk are uplifting and healthy.

Then we went live with spots featuring Bollywood heartthrobs Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor – casting them in TVCs as strangers, acquaintances and as a couple – where they taught the country how to use the packs. Slotted for right after – we’re going live on mobile screens across the country – giving those hooked to it, reason enough to look up, and share a smile with the lovely people around them. Just how?
