The Challenge

Making a Price Offer Worth Watching

KFC was launching its new 9 pcs for ₹299 deal in April 2025, and Gen Z was the audience it most wanted to reach. A price offer is easy to scroll past on its own, so the deal needed a story and faces that people would stop and watch. KFC also wanted the launch to feel like a big brand moment, with the polish of a TVC and the pull of a celebrity pair.

What We Had to Solve For

Our Strategy

The Insight:

Contrast is what makes content memorable. Two very different personalities sharing one screen create energy and humour, and that is what people watch, share and remember.

The Approach:

We chose Mrunal Thakur, who was trending with back-to-back releases across South and Hindi cinema, and paired her with Danish Sait, the extroverted comedian who is her complete opposite. The shoot ran about 8 hours at a leading Mumbai studio, with six agencies working in sync and our first TVC-style shoot for any brand.
