    Talking about the collaboration, Ayesha Ghosh, General Manager, Taproot Dentsu Mumbai, said: “We are happy to be working with Big FM. The task of repositioning a brand is always most exciting, considering that it’s like a rebirth that one must design with utmost care. From “Suno, sunao, life banao” to the plausible next stage in the brand’s journey, there was a wide spectrum to cover. Eventually, with unanimous agreement on what we should stand for, nuancing the personality in great detail and laying out a sustainable plan, we are ready to go live. This positioning will drive all that Big FM stands for; from content to packaging to communication. We look forward to a successful launch and continued consumer relevance thereon, because it is a thought that we all believe firmly in and are eager to spread far and wide.”

    On the subject of repositioning, Sunil Kumaran, Country Head, THWINK (Big FM’s short-form video and audio talent incubator and marquee content studio) added: “We were at a stage where the category was moving from being just a provider of entertainment, to being torch bearers of improvement and progress towards a better world. From our interactive relationship with the audience, we wanted to take it to the next level with our listeners, by making both them and ourselves responsible for a better tomorrow. “Dhun badal ke toh dekho” is something we strongly believe in, because at every level, truly, change in the world will begin only with change in the mind. We plan to live this and own this every day with our every move and hope to transcend the relevance of this thought from our collective conviction to our audience’s, and of course, the world at large.”

     

     

  • Over the decades, Parle-G has remained the largest selling biscuit brand across the world

    Parle-G reminisces old memories through latest campaign

    By A Correspondent

     

    Parle Products has partnered with Taproot Dentsu to launch a series of five films for its flagship brand, Parle-G. Taproot’s task was to move Parle-G right up in the emotional consideration set of consumers, thereby reminding them of what Parle-G really is – the unsung hero of biscuits.

     

    Said Pallavi Chakravarti, Executive Creative Director, Taproot Dentsu Mumbai: “Parle-G is a staple. Quite like our rice and pulses. It is like that one person everyone has in their life who has always been there, albeit on the side-lines. This campaign is a celebration of relationships that we seldom acknowledge but without which life isn’t quite the same. It’s a message that only a brand as iconic as Parle-G can give. Because come to think of it, everyone has eaten one and everyone has a human equivalent, if they just take the time out to think of it.”

     

    Speaking about the campaign, Mayank Shah, Category Head, Parle Products said: ‘’Over the years, Parle-G was strongly positioned as a staple given that it is associated with health and nutrition. However, a consumer research that we conducted recently revealed that Parle-G has moved beyond being a staple and is now an emotion. Through this campaign, we want to celebrate that emotion and the bond a consumer has with Parle-G by showcasing how there are relations in our life which are never acknowledged but have played a significant role in making us who we are.”

     

     

  • The brief to Taproot was to reclaim a territory for Milano

    Taproot Dentsu, Parle launch new films for Milano

    By A Correspondent

     

    Parle, in association with Taproot Dentsu, has launched a series of films for its premium biscuit offering Platina Milano.

     

    Speaking about the campaign, Mayank Shah, Category Head, Parle Products said: “Since the launch of the Platina range last May, we have observed a renewed interest among consumers towards Parle’s premium offerings. We have always been innovators across categories and while we were happy that our premium brands were being well received, we also felt the need to bring something refreshingly new to the consumers. Extensive research and understanding of our target audience’s evolving tastes led us to add new variants to the Milano range, which consequently resulted in India’s first cookie with Hazelnut filling by an FMCG brand.”

     

    Added Ayesha Ghosh, General Manager, Taproot Dentsu Mumbai: “In times where balance and perfection are being chased and when indulgence is frowned upon, our task was to carve out a special guilt-free place in the minds of consumers for a rich, delicious cookie like Milano. The idea that followed was to approach it from an individual’s perspective, bringing out the importance of irreverent self-pampering. The fact that Twinkle Khanna personally identified with the messaging, further spurred off the idea for us to also add the element of ‘There’s a me in every Milano’ in the TVCs. Overall, the ads have been shot in a manner to remind us that every now and then, it’s okay to listen to your heart, give in to a craving and bite into that tempting cookie!”
