Insights, Strategy and the Idea

Kwality Walls Cornetto from Unilever is a leading Ice Cream brand in India. Cornetto’s brand philosophy is “Ho Jaane De” which translated means “Make it happen”. Cornetto needed its teenage audience to experience its brand philosophy first hand. For this Cornetto needed a platform which would bring its teenage aspirations to life. The target audience was teenagers. Cornetto wanted to give them a chance for to reveal, revel & excel themselves. The life of Indian teenager revolves around 3 Ms: -Music -Movies – especially romantic movies! -Masti (Fun) In India this triple sundae is represented by Bollywood, the Indian film industry- A place where every budding Indian talent wants to be, given its glamour quotient. Cornetto then needed a way to bring its ordinary teenage audience seemingly impossible Bollywood(Indian Movies) aspirations to life, if they were to believe that a Cornetto can really make it happen!
