HalaPlay appoints L&K Saatchi and Saatchi as creative agency
MUMBAI: HalaPlay, a popular fantasy sports platform, has appointed L&K Saatchi & Saatchi to handle its creative duties.
The agency has rolled out a brand new campaign featuring Hardik and Krunal Pandya to promote HalaPlay’s fantasy cricket platform, playing on the importance of the ‘Bro Code’ and how this so-called sacred code can be broken when the platform’s huge winnings are at stake. The high-decibel campaign has been launched on all media platforms.
Commenting on the campaign and the agency appointment, HalaPlay co-founder Prateek Anand said, “Fantasy Sports has become a way of life for many Indians, which is where we see our exponential growth come from. At a product level, our attempt has been to put the power in the hands of our player community and create a feeling of collectivism, hence the introduction of a strong product hook, like the no platform fee for games between friends/brothers. L&K Saatchi & Saatchi helped us fuel the momentum further during the prime cricketing season by creating our first campaign, leveraging Hardik and Krunal Pandya’s cricketing skills and their mischievous brotherly chemistry.”
L&K Saatchi & Saatchi CEO and managing partner Anil Nair said, “In a cricket-crazy country like ours, everybody has their eyes and ears glued to their phones for the next three months. With an opportunity like this, our campaign aims to make a mark in their minds and engage in a way that easily resonates with them.”
Nazara Technologies Ltd chief executive officer Manish Agarwal mentioned, “We at Nazara, were looking for creative partners who can match the passion of HalaPlay founders to build a lasting legacy in the shortest possible time. The team at L&K Saatchi & Saatchi has been more than an equal match to the challenges thrown at them. This is a fantastic start to a long journey which all the teams have embarked upon and we are confident of establishing HalaPlay as a very strong consumer brand.”a
