NEW DELHI: Lionsgate Play has launched its campaign ‘Play More Browse Less’ in India with a quirky digital film featuring actors Tiger Shroff and Ananya Panday. The digital film is developed on the insight that millennials spend too much time today trying to find what to watch and the app, with its curated edgy line-up, looks forward to solving this problem.
The integrated campaign will be extended across impact properties on digital and social media.
The film showcases Tiger Shroff pranking Ananya Panday by drawing a moustache on her face while she is sleeping. Seeing herself on a video camera she gets annoyed and tells Tiger to utilise his time better. Tiger says, “Teri tarah browse karne mein time waste nahi karta, Lionsgate Play app hai mere paas (Unlike you, I don’t waste time browsing. I have Lionsgate Play app).”
Lionsgate South Asia and Networks - emerging markets Asia MD Rohit Jain commented, “Our app launch has received a phenomenal response from Indian viewers. We have been offering curated content from all across the globe to our viewers. We extensively emphasise on edgy content that is easily accessible on our savvy interface. Today the consumer has a plethora of choices but is always struggling as to what to watch next. We have launched our brand campaign basis this insight and bring a promise to our consumer to Play More Browse Less. We are very excited to rope in Tiger Shroff and Ananya Panday and feel they are the right talent to introduce Indian audiences to shows like Normal People, Manhunt: Deadly games, Romulus and No Man’s Land to name a few.”
Tiger Shroff said, “I am really excited to partner with Lionsgate Play, have loved some of the global movies and shows they have made. Very happy to be a part of their India chapter.”
