4700BC and Netflix unveil new popcorn flavours with Karan Johar
Mumbai: 4700BC, a snacking brand, has partnered with Netflix to enhance the entertainment experience. This collaboration, featuring filmmaker Karan Johar and television actors Karan Wahi and Karanvir Bohra, introduces two exclusive popcorn flavours: Sweet & Salty and Cheese & Caramel, designed to complement Netflix’s diverse content library.
The partnership is based on the insight that people enjoy combining flavours at the cinema, a choice previously unavailable at home. 4700BC and Netflix aim to enhance the viewing experience, offering a flavour for every genre. The Sweet & Salty flavour blends sweetness with a touch of sea salt, while the Cheese & Caramel combines cheddar cheese with Himalayan Salt Caramel. These flavours will be available at major retailers, e-commerce platforms, and the 4700BC website.
4700BC founder and CEO Chirag Gupta expressed his excitement about the partnership: “At 4700BC, we understand the strong connection between popcorn and entertainment. Our collaboration with Netflix allows us to bring this beloved snack into more homes, making it a staple for any content-watching experience. This partnership is a natural fit, as both brands are committed to enhancing the entertainment experience for our consumers.”
This launch is complemented with a visually stunning ad campaign that captures the essence of this collaboration. It begins with Netflix’s familiar “Who’s watching?” interface, where the three Karans humorously debate their favourite popcorn flavours while deciding what to binge-watch. The playful banter is resolved when Karan Johar, in his signature style, combines sweet and salty flavours, showcasing the joy of mixed tastes.
Filmmaker Karan Johar added: “As someone who loves good cinema and great food, I believe this partnership between 4700BC and Netflix is a match made in heaven. It ensures that every time you sit down to watch something, it’s memorable, truly capturing the essence of enjoying premium snacks with top-tier entertainment. I’m thrilled to be part of this venture, where every moment and every bite are perfectly paired.”
Netflix India head of marketing partnerships, Poornima Sharma expressed her excitement: “Snacking while watching content has always been a beloved tradition. These special-edition popcorn from 4700BC complement Netflix’s blockbuster entertainment, allowing us to elevate the cherished experience of snacking and watching films and series in the comfort of our homes. Exceptional content deserves exceptional snacks, and this partnership delivers just that.”
This collaboration marks a significant milestone in brand partnerships, setting a new standard for immersive at-home experiences. The campaign centred around the theme “Best Enjoyed Together,” is slated to run across various platforms, inviting viewers to explore the perfect pairing of 4700BC Popcorn and Netflix content.

Hyundai India posts record April sales with 17-per cent growth
Domestic sales hit 51,902 units, exports stand at 13,708 units
MUMBAI: Hyundai is clearly shifting gears and April has put the pedal firmly to the metal. Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) has reported its highest-ever domestic sales for the month of April, clocking 51,902 units in April 2026, marking a 17 per cent year-on-year growth. The milestone sets a strong tone for the new financial year, signalling sustained demand momentum across its portfolio. Alongside domestic performance, the company recorded export volumes of 13,708 units for the month, underlining its continued strength in overseas markets.
The growth has been driven by a mix of refreshed models and special editions across segments. Recent launches and updates including the Exter, Verna, Ioniq 5, Creta Summer Edition, Grand i10 NIOS Vibe Edition and Venue Knight Edition have helped keep the line-up competitive in an increasingly crowded market.
A standout performer was the Venue, which recorded its highest-ever monthly domestic sales of 12,420 units. The model’s 5-Star Bharat NCAP safety rating, including for the VENUE N Line, appears to have bolstered consumer confidence, reflecting a broader industry shift where safety credentials are becoming a key purchase driver.
Tarun Garg, Managing Director and CEO, HMIL, said the company has carried forward recent momentum into the new financial year, with product interventions and safety-focused positioning playing a central role in driving growth.
The numbers suggest Hyundai’s strategy is ticking multiple boxes fresh product cycles, safety-led messaging and steady export performance. If April is any indication, the company isn’t just starting the year strong, it’s aiming to keep the engine running at full throttle.
