MUMBAI: For the first time ever, recently launched Zee Biskope has got on-board all three superstars of Bhojiwood – Nirahua, Pawan Singh, and Khesari Lal Yadav as its brand ambassadors. It also rolled out a high-decibel integrated ad campaign that celebrates the channel’s unique offerings. The campaign spanned across mediums like television, print, outdoor, digital, and radio with the aim to create awareness and build sampling momentum.
Publicis India conceptualised a unique campaign that epitomises the three main genres of Bhojpuri movies: Action, Romance, and Drama which are essayed by Zee Biskope’s brand ambassadors Pawan Singh, Khesari Lal Yadav, and Niruaha, respectively. All three films were written and directed keeping the Bhojpuri audience and nuances in mind. The creative idea was to rejoice every moment of your Bhojpuriya life to its unabashed best just like Bhojpuri movies do.
Highlighting the marketing idea behind the campaign, Zee Biskope and Big Ganga business head Amarpreet Singh Saini said, “The idea behind the campaign was to capture the essence of Bhojpuri movies albeit with a clutter breaking rendition. The films were meant to connect with the audience and at the same time establish the brand as a unique offering in the category. Each film takes a distinct and stand out route to introduction of the conflict, revealing the mega star and culmination into celebration of brand promise in three distinct styles. The high uniqueness score’ in brand survey corroborates the efficacy of this well thought out campaign. The collaboration with Publicis ensured authenticity and finesse across films, given their keen eye for detail and high thrust on sophistication in execution.”
