Lifebuoy and ‘Krrish’ star Hrithik Roshan entertain kids
NEW DELHI: As part of their ongoing promotional campaign ‘Lifebuoy Main Bhi Krissh’, HLL brought together the movie’s super hero Hrithik Roshan to meet up with ten lucky contest winners. Lifebuoy had tied up with the movie Krrish, for joint promotion.
The little stars had a fun filled evening playing games, painting cards for Hrithik, solving puzzles and interacting with the star. The kids also had an opportunity to be photographed with Hrithik and receive memorabilia from the Krrish hero.
Talking about the promotional campaign, HLL marketing manager Punit Misra revealed that Lifebuoy stands for encouraging the hero within us. The germ of the idea began with the thought that super hero Krrish turns into a hero as soon as he puts on the mask, thus the synergy between Lifebuoy & the movie was born. Similarly, bathing with Lifebuoy would give the children unlimited protection against germs.
The Krrish superhero Hrithik Roshan said that he was delighted with the successful response from the “Lifebuoy Main Bhi Krrish” promotion. He also thanked Lifebuoy for this unique opportunity to meet the little stars.
Misra also added “The “Lifebuoy main bhi Krrish” promotion had an over whelming response, receiving more than thirty thousand entries, out of which ten lucky winners were chosen. The chosen winners were from different parts of India, as far as Amritsar, Vijayawada, Ahmedabad, Kolhapur etc, traveled to Mumbai from their respective locations to meet their favourite hero. We are over whelmed by the enthusiasm & response received by the kids that we received for this promotion.”
