So if I’m a good brand manager, I should be doing a viral too, that seems to be the rationale behind virals these days. I’d written about it a few days back.<\/p>\n
What provoked this post was the latest viral from (nah, you go see it<\/a> and come back, then we’ll talk). Ok, lazybones, i know you didnt click, now how is the damn viral supposed to work if you don’t!!!<\/p>\n Anyway, Bingo and i share a dislike for the same thing, the thing which has joined the elite club that until now only had Bollywood and Cricket – Balaji Productions. I got to know of this viral through a mail from Ekta Kopper with a subject line ‘Kyunki is Bache ka Baap kaun hai”. And before you\u00a0do my character assassination\u00a0mentally, I dont like oats, wild or otherwise. But it was still a neat hook \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n And thus it was that i landed up at this c2w creation, which is a spoof on any of the gazillion soaps from Ek Tha Kapoor, complete with a five digit episode number, bahus and a tulsi lookalike. (damn, i let it slip that i watch the soaps :|) . The good part is that the spoof is done well, and the funda of the flavor (achaari masti) has a synergy with that of the TVC – i.e. best way to confirm pregnancy, but…..<\/p>\n It has a predictable ending albeit a cute one, but more importantly, does it make the viral cut? Only time will tell. I admit its way more VFM than shooting a 30 lakh TVC, but then they’re doing a TVC anyway. Meanwhile, full marks to the Bingo guys for trying. Even their ‘Mad Angles’ TVCs actually broke the clutter, me thinks. Also, they’re\u00a0genuine in their web efforts (this was an earlier one- http:\/\/www.bingeonbingo.com\/login\/login.asp<\/a>)<\/p>\n until next time, what’s the programme now? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So if I’m a good brand manager, I should be doing a viral too, that seems to be the rationale behind virals these days.
