NDTV and Seagram’s 100 Pipers Glassware have launched True Legend – The Future of Young India, an initiative that celebrates individuals who have gone beyond the material markers of success to create a positive impact on the world. The initiative will showcase these ‘champions of good’ from different fields like Start-up Tech, Business Innovation, Music, Sports, Environment, Social Work etc.
The initiative will identify and felicitate these True Legends through multiple levels of evaluation, including a NDTV editorial shortlisting process – through which nominees across these categories have been selected. One ‘True Legend’ from each of these categories will ultimately be shortlisted through public voting and selection by the esteemed Jury of this initiative.
The Jury comprises individuals who inspire the aspirations of young India and are ‘True Legends’ themselves. They are Kunal Kapoor – Actor, Model & Co-founder of Ketto, Ghazal Alagh – Co-founder Mamaearth, Bhaichung Bhutia – India Football Legend, Rabbi Shergill – Iconic Musician and Taran Chabbra – Founder Neeman’s.
The brand has consistently brought to life the belief of ‘Be Remembered For Good’ – a rallying cry that inspires people to go beyond the material markers of success to make a positive impact on the world. Building on this strong legacy, the brand seeks to continue inspiring consumers to strive towards creating a better world with this initiative as well.
To empower consumers to be active participants, 100 Pipers has also created a special ‘Be Remembered for Good’ category as part of this initiative. In this category, anyone can share stories of people who might not be well-known to the world but are ‘champions of good’ and should be celebrate for the impact they make on society.
Kartik Mohindra, Chief Marketing Officer, Pernod Ricard India said, “Seagram’s 100 Pipers believes in leadership with purpose, and we always strive to work with partners who are aligned to our core philosophy of ‘Be Remembered for Good’.
