    Said Sanjeev Mantri, Executive Director at ICICI Lombard General Insurance: “While the pandemic has turned people towards a holistically healthy lifestyle, it is equally important to add the element of measurement to all our health endeavours. Considering the significant increase in the usage of wellness and health-oriented apps recently, we have introduced this new feature of ‘Calorie Scan’, which will act as a counter and encourage the user to stick to their recommended calorie budget. ICICI Lombard aims to offer not only comprehensive coverage to our consumers but also innovative solutions to them, thereby serving as a partner in the customer’s wellness journey.”

This year, we sought to open a new chapter by going a step further and joining them in their journey towards holistic wellness. Not just by helping them count their calories, but giving them tips on how to burn them and stay fit on a regular basis too.”

     

  • Rang Rogan is not the solution’ suggests Amitabh Bachchan in Dr. Fixit’s new campaign

    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.”

  • Ogilvy & Mission Green India raise awareness on pollution

    By A Correspondent

     

    Ogilvy Mumbai in association with Mission Green India attempted to create an awareness about pollution this Diwali.

     

    Said Talha Bin Mohsin and Mahesh Parab, Group Creative Directors, Ogilvy Mumbai: “Mission Green India approached us with a challenge to help make Diwali greener. We came across this study comparing firecrackers and cigarettes, and the numbers in it really scared us. We knew it was something a lot of people don’t really know about, and they should. We realized the best way to achieve this is to have a warning on every pack. With the support of netizens everywhere, we can make mandatory warnings on firecracker packs a reality.”

     

    Added Shubhajit Mukherjee from Mission Green India:  “More than food, air is the primary need of citizens which needs to be treated with the utmost care and responsibility. Firec rackers are an international problem where standards are not followed which leads to poisoning of the air. I’m glad Ogilvy has come up with a unique way to inform people about this.”

    Said Sanjeev Mantri, Executive Director, ICICI Lombard General Insurance on the campaign: “In today’s times, technology is an integral part of everything that we do. As an insurer, it helps us develop innovative, first-to-market solutions that set new benchmarks in the insurance space. However, technology can be cold and impersonal and when it comes to seeking help in the hour of need, customers always look for the human touch. For us, technology is not the primary solution, but an enabler for our team to help our customers, whenever they need our support. The campaign effectively communicates this thought by showcasing our employees, those who burn the midnight oil to introduce these innovative and customer friendly solutions”.

     

    Added Talha Bin Mohsin and Mahesh Parab, Group Creative Directors, Ogilvy & Mather: “ICICI Lombard’s communication has always been driven by its customer-centric values of keeping promises no matter how difficult. But this time it was a bit different. We wanted to tell customers that we keep our promises. This is only possible when the company is driven by technology that in turn is driven by empathy of our employees towards our customers and their evolving needs. The result – stories of our technologies helping our customers and the real men and women of ICICI Lombard behind those technological innovations.”
