The campaign had to be replete with XUV500’s proposition May Your Life Be Full of Stories. Long journeys with the XUV500 give way to incredible experiences and stories. Mahindra wanted to leverage this aspect and work out an idea around it. There was already a lot of excitement around the first global SUV – Mahindra XUV500 and this campaign would help us leverage the overall brand appeal. The XUV500 Memorable Stories campaign tapped into India's talent pool of short-filmmakers.
30 teams of filmmakers across India were given the XUV500 for 6 days each. Each team was required to make a film (of duration between 3-5 minutes). These films were then uploaded on to the XUV500 YT channel for public viewing. At the same time, the brand was promoting the contest organically on its social media platforms. At the end of 2 months, a jury selected and awarded the Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Story, Audience Award etc etc.
