  • Duolingo partners with Red Chillies

    Identifying an opportunity to join the conversation around moving abroad with the launch of Rajkumar Hirani’s film ‘Dunki’, launched a reactive campaign to position itself as the smarter choice for individuals aspiring to pursue international studies.

     

    The Duolingo English Test (DET) collaborated with Red Chillies Entertainment to partner with the film Dunki to create a co-branded video asset featuring Taapsee Pannu, recommending the DET as a smarter alternative to reach one’s dream university. The effort has been conceptualised by Digitas.

     

    Said Tara Kapur, Marketing Head for Duolingo English Test in India: “The Duolingo English Test is a student-friendly alternative for English Proficiency testing, and as a result is a much more convenient option to the traditional options out there. When we saw the storyline of Dunki, with the characters facing so many challenges to get abroad, we saw a very natural connect with the film’s narrative. Given the DET’s convenience, we used this as an opportunity to present it as a ‘smarter’ way to get abroad in comparison to what else is out there. We are committed to making English assessment seamless, accurate, and accessible, ensuring that every student’s journey to prestigious universities is less stressful. This campaign was a great way for us to get that message across in a light, entertaining manner.”
