MUMBAI: Changing the narrative of telling customers to wear to ‘fit-in’ and stay ‘trendy’, Max Fashion, in partnership with Dentsu Webchuteny has launched its latest campaign #BehenKuchBhiPehen, asking women to wear whatever they want to.
“For far too long, Indian women have had to dress in a way that they don’t necessarily want to,” says Lifestyle International vice president Jiten Mahendra. “Whether that be from the fear of being judged or because of unwritten societal codes, women don’t feel free enough to where the kind of styles they want. ‘Behen, Kuch Bhi Pehen’ is a statement of assurance that, when it comes to fashion choices, a woman must only listen to herself.”
The campaign is led by a music video, written by Dentsu Webchutney, sung and composed by renowned Bollywood playback singer Anushka Manchanda, and created in association with content creators - Culture Machine. The video is steadily beginning to find effect on social media channels such as YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram while the song is already receiving airtime on Radio Mirchi and Red FM. The video’s signature dance move is now also being recreated across India’s youngest social platform, Tik-Tok.
“At Dentsu Webchutney, we have always strived to generate brand-speak that creates an impact on the broader Indian society,” says Dentsu Webchutney client services director Priyanka Borah “Max has democratized fashion but our minds are yet to be! ‘Behen, Kuch Bhi Pehen’ marries the diversity of choice and selection that the brand offers to a statement of much-needed liberation. Kudos to Max for endorsing a statement that all modern women can get going with,” she adds.
