Veeba launches first National Brand Campaign “Aaj Kya Khaoge?”

Mumbai: Veeba sauces, dressings and dips is launching its first national marketing campaign, with a strategy to align itself closely with the creativity in Indian kitchens under the strapline “Aaj Kya Khaoge?”

Starring Amit Sadh and Shruti Seth – in an endearing relationship, the campaign aims to ‘inspire’ and capture the excitement of creating something new and ‘empower’ young Indians to be creative and experiment every day.

‘Aaj Kya Khaoge’ is the governing thought behind Veeba’s new brand campaign and reflects the insight that there’s an innovator in every kitchen who is waiting for the right springboard and Veeba aims to be that ’Enabler’ in every kitchen with its wide range of authentic tasting as well as better-for-you products that can unleash that creativity.

Veeba products enable you to get fantastic taste, unending variety and inspiration for you to be creative while cooking. The 4 creatives of the television campaign capture this precise sentiment.

Set in a modern Indian context, the ads capture the friendly banter between husband and wife, father and daughter, and those moments of truth when you discover the difference that Veeba sauces have made to the meal!

Mr. Viraj Bahl said, “As a brand that is in tune with the young and modern Indian, we are sensitive to the changing dynamics in the kitchen. With Veeba every member of the family could cook and consume the food.

One of the most asked question in every household is “Aaj Kya Khaoge?” and our wide range of tasty products aim to answer just that. We have a product for every mood and occasion

Even though we are relatively new in the retail space, response to our products has been overwhelming. Buoyed by this love and appreciation, we felt it was the right time to invest in increasing the Brand Awareness and Recall, creating a platform for future growth.”

The campaign was created in partnership with an integrated cross-agency, multi-disciplinary team of TapRootDentsu, and MSix.

The campaign has 4 creative expressions and will be aired across multiple genres such as GEC, English entertainment, Movies, Music and Kids Networks.

Titus Upputuru, Creative Head, Taproot, Dentsu said, “Kitchen is the new playground. Men and women are increasingly finding joy in being creative with food! This is where we found the sweet spot for Veeba’s first television campaign,“Aaj Kya Khaoge?” As the husband and wife duo get creative with Veeba, they engage in playful banter that derives its inspiration from everyday conversations over food”.

Saket Sinha, Leader, mSix India said, “As the media agency on record for Veeba, mSix is planning to engage consumers with various touch points across a multi- channel integrated campaign. With our deep understanding of the brand and data to support our inference, mSix is rolling out a sharp targeted content driven media campaign that has been created panning across TV, digital and Cinema over the next two months. We will put in our best to deliver the desired outcome for Veeba.
