Mumbai: Savings app Magicpin has come up with a new commercial on the merits of choosing your neighbourhood retail store over online channels for a better shopping experience and better savings.

The new TV commercial created by Songfest India provokes viewers by highlighting aspects of online shopping vs the going out and shopping experience. From the right fit to instant delivery, to making great savings, the offline experience is second to none.

The TVC features the inimitable Vijay Raaz as the common man who talks straight, and brings to life the smart Indian who is sick of empty promises, tall claims, millions of paper points and online deliveries that don’t fit. He wonders about the need to go through this trauma when a quick walk to the nearest shop will solve this dilemma in a jiffy.

magicpin head of content Karanjeet Kaur said, “How many times can you poke a finger in the eye of giants and get away with it? That’s the question we set out to answer with our latest TVC-led campaign. After the viral success of our ‘The Bread ad’, we knew we had to level up. So we adopted the route of provocation once again, but focused squarely on the joy of stepping out and shopping at local brand stores. And Vijay Raaz - with his image as an everyman with a bullshit-free approach to life - was the perfect choice to deliver the message… again.”

The TV campaign has already registered responses from over 54 lakh views spread across YouTube, Twitter,Instagram Post, LinkedIn and Instagram Reel, said the brand.
