Sab launches new brand campaign amidst growing popularity
MUMBAI: In keeping with its brand promise of Asli Mazaa Sab Ke Saath Aata Hai, family comedy entertainment channel Sab has launched the third phase of its brand campaign that reiterates the promise of light hearted shows that can be enjoyed with the entire family.
In the first stage of launching its brand campaign, Sab had started with the catch line Asli Mazaa Sab Ke Saath Aata Hai. And as it grew along till a year ago, the channel launched its second campaign that read Shaam ko ek waqt aisa aata hai jab saara parivaar ikhatte ho jate hai kyon ki asli maaza Sab ke saath aata hai.
Going by the popularity that the channel has acquired growing from 28 GRPs (gross rating points) to the current 100 GRPs, Sab launched third phase of its brand campaign that reiterates the brand promise of light hearted shows that can be enjoyed with the entire family. The catch line now reads Ab toh Baache Baache ko bhi samajh mein aata hai ki asli mazaa SAB ke saath Aata Hai.
The TVC features a boy who gets a candy in school. He does not feel tempted to have the candy. He resists all temptation, rushes back home, goes to the kitchen and then breaks the candy into several pieces and eventually shares it with his entire family.
The TVC showcases that now even a kid knows that real fun lies in being with the whole family. The title track of the TVC is sung by classical singer, Shubha Mudgal.
Commenting on the launch of the new brand campaign, Sab executive VP and business head Anuj Kapoor says, “Our message to Indian families that asli maza SAB ke saath aata hai has really hit home. Today, several families across countries have realised and accepted that it is better to watch positive and light hearted family content on SAB TV instead of watching negative and regressive content on other GEC channels. Even a small child has realised the wisdom of this simple truth.”

Faber-Castell India appoints Sunaina Haldar as director – marketing
With stints at Tata, SleepyCat and ADF Foods under her belt, Haldar is primed to redraw Faber-Castell’s brand story
MUMBAI: Faber-Castell India has poached Sunaina Haldar from ADF Foods, appointing her director – marketing as the German stationery brand looks to muscle up in a category that is rapidly reinventing itself around creativity and self-expression.
Haldar hit the ground running. “My first couple of weeks have been incredibly energising, understanding consumers, visiting markets, engaging with retailers and immersing myself into the world of Faber-Castell Group,” she said.
She arrives with considerable firepower. At ADF Foods, Haldar ran marketing across India and international markets for a portfolio spanning Ashoka, Aeroplane, Camel and ADF Soul. Before that, she was vice-president – marketing at direct-to-consumer mattress brand SleepyCat, where she helmed brand, content and performance marketing. Her résumé also includes a stint leading marketing, new product development and CRM for Tata SmartFoodz at Tata Consumer Products, no small proving ground.
Between corporate roles, Haldar also operated as a fractional CMO for early-stage startups, building marketing strategy and operational structures from scratch, a signal that she knows how to move fast with limited resources.
With 18 years straddling FMCG, D2C and the startup world, Haldar now takes the reins at a brand that has long owned the classroom but is clearly hungry for the living room. In a stationery market where the pencil has become a lifestyle statement, Faber-Castell has picked someone who knows exactly how to sell that story.
