The main film of the campaign has lyrics with words from many regional languages – making it truly diverse – just like this country. “Conceptualising this campaign was a unique experience – the creative idea was hidden in the brief itself, but to dig it up and to shape it into a full-fledged campaign was a challenge our team took up successfully.” says Shobhit Mathur, Managing Partner and Creative Head, Hakuhodo Wyng. He further adds that “HMSI wanted to show how Activa has been such an integral part of Indian lives that it has become synonymous with the word, ‘Scooter’. So we gave the campaign a very Indian feel – diverse lifestyle yet similar values, and a common love for Activa!”
The campaign has been shot all over the country to show how diverse the customer base for Activa is. Talking about the same, Saptarshi Sengupta, Senior Business Partner, Hakuhodo Wyng speaks, “We have covered a very vast spectrum in terms of diversity to do justice to the love Indians have shown for Activa over the years.
