Shave India

So all you men out there, with Neha Dupia, Mugdha Godse calling, you will experience Gillette Mach 3 atleast once for sure. Such will be the power of the campaign and i admire the way this campaign has been planned. When i saw the TVCs i did not pay much attention to the details nor the campaign bit, till i read it in CT. What better way than this perfect PR opportunity for the brand to reach out to the TG.

For long, i have always wondered on the understanding of PR beyond press releases and X xX column coverages. This will be a classic case study on what a well thought out PR campaign can do to a brand. A creative thought of a survey, an intelligent use of the survey results and voila...Shave India Movement.

After all women prefer clean shaven looks , get one right now.

Corona positive

Hold your thoughts there! Yes, you read the title right, but probably the inference is not what you think!! I #StayatHome, therefore, I #StaySafe.  Ever since the pandemic situation took center stage, there is gloom, sadness, incidences of humanity and inhumanness too, jobs lost, migrants suffering, economy taking a beat., overall more of not so positive conversations around us.  As a strong believer in "there is an opportunity in every adversity", I set my mind to think of all the positives that this abnormal situation has brought with it, in the last few weeks.  # Family time:  In my entire career life, I have never ever spent so much time at my home, being together with the family for so long, except the customary break for a family holiday every year. Be it, children or adults, everyone has their own routine and even for planning a family dinner, you need to prioritize between homework, meeting schedules, etc. In the normal routine, Sunday is rest tim...

Hap Happ Happy

What drove me to write on this is two things - a post by my journo friend  questioning the way we are living today and a related article that I read on happiness index and how India fares very poor in this , in the 117th place much below small countries like Bhutan.  And I just cant resist sharing the pride that I had when my son's teacher had penned in the report card that he is a happy child -  a remark that I really take more seriously than even the academics. And when we met in one of PTA, she did not forget to mention this too.   As a mother of two, I had always been firm that academics will not be on top of my agenda and that I would rather see my child being a sensible thinker and being humane rather than a topper. Now coming back to being happy, happiness is a relative term and can there even be a yardstick to measure it? For me, happiness is measured by the smiles per day, and it helps me also do a quick che...

A byline story in the front page - at what cost?

I have been wanting to vent out my feelings on this topic for quite some time, happy am able to do it now. When Times launched in Chennai, i was one of those many / few whatever the case may be, who was really excited and became a regular reader. But when i read this particular newsarticle titled "Commandos strike through stormwater drains" which made the front page of TOI, my blood was boiling and the feeling was one of anger and frustration. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Chennai/In_the_pipeline_Commando_strike_through_stormwater_drains_/articleshow/3847830.cms I have nothing against the journalist, but what prompted me to react was the story. How can a strategy which our commandos will adopt be made so public that too as a story of that prominence. Well you may call it freedom of expression? but at what cost????????? (Want to write more on this topic but would reserve it for now)
