MUMBAI: The tantalising tangerine-tinted Mirinda, PepsiCo India's zesty citrus sensation, is splashing onto screens with a captivating campaign that promises to make this year's Holi celebrations even more vivacious and vibrant.
The scintillating spot showcases how the effervescent elixir transforms mundane moments into dazzling displays of delight, much like the kaleidoscopic festival itself. In the fizzy footage, a seemingly serious mother-son conversation bubbles over into brilliant banter after a single sip of the sunset-hued refreshment.
The carnival of colour that is Holi evokes nostalgic notions of carefree celebrations, where rainbow-hued powders paint participants in prismatic patterns amid peals of laughter. Mirinda's message mirrors this merry mayhem, reminding revellers that both the beverage and the beloved festival share the sparkling spirit of spontaneous joy.
“Holi is a festival that celebrates togetherness, joy, and fun—values that have always been at the heart of Mirinda,” mused PepsiCo India category lead for cola and flavours Shailja Joshi. “This campaign brings that essence to life, showing how Mirinda adds a splash of colour and playfulness to everyday moments. Whether it’s nostalgia for past celebrations or excitement for new ones, Mirinda is the perfect companion to make Holi even more playful, refreshing, and unforgettable.”
The tangy tipple, with its sunburst shade and zippy zest, doesn't just accompany the celebrations—it amplifies the already abundant atmosphere of unrestrained revelry.
Daftar Creative Room founder Sidhant Mago couldn't contain his enthusiasm: "Who wouldn't want to work on the Mirinda Holi brief? We brought out our rangeen zubaans the moment we heard it from the Mirinda marketing team. The most colourful brand and the most vibrant festival—this is easily the best collaboration of the year."
The pulsating production received star treatment from Shakun Batra, the celebrated celluloid craftsman, who expressed unbridled excitement about his first foray into Mirinda's effervescent universe.
“Working with Mirinda for the first time has been an absolute blast! The brand’s vibrant energy and playful spirit made this Holi campaign an incredible experience, “ Batra bubbled. ”With Sidhant Mago at the helm as the creative director and writer, we knew we were creating something truly special. The marketing team and Mago’s vision brought out the unfiltered madness and joy that define both Holi and Mirinda. Seeing it all come to life- the colours, the fun, the unstoppable laughter—has been nothing short of amazing. This is a celebration like no other, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be a part of it."
The vibrant visual feast will fizz across digital and social media platforms nationwide, encouraging consumers to embrace Holi's iridescent intensity with an extra splash of Mirinda's signature spirited spontaneity.
The gleaming golden-orange beverage is available in various volumes at retailers and quick-commerce platforms throughout the country, ready to add its radiant refreshment to India's most chromatically charged celebration.
