Mumbai: Bharat Matrimony, an Indian online matrimony service, has launched its new campaign #BeChoosy. The campaign is conceptualised by WYP Wondrlab.
With lakhs of verified profiles on the app and a feature to choose based on education, profession, location and more, the company says both men and women can be choosy as they want in choosing their life partner.
Ajeeta Bharadwaj, Chief Strategy Officer of Wondrlab, says, “Society has always looked at finding your match as the end goal, when in fact it is the beginning of the next forty years of your life. So, it is important to choose right. But in our conversations with women who were in the journey of selecting their life partner, we found that when a woman exercises her choice even on fundamental things, she gets labelled as ‘choosy’. We wanted to turn this on its head and make being choosy a good thing.”
Here is what Amit Akali, co-founder and CCO of WYP Wondrlab has to say about the campaign. “At Wondrlab we’re always trying to create work that questions the consciousness of society. That brings about change by focusing on things that haven’t been focused on. This film too tries to do just that. We’re just trying to make the viewers realise something that they might have not thought about before.”
Arjun Bhatia, Chief Marketing Officer – Matrimony.com elaborates, “Bharat Matrimony has been constantly breaking new ground and changing the social narrative about relationships and marriage. When women, after careful consideration, make their choices be it about education, career, finance or finding a partner, people tend to say they’re being very picky and question their choices. On the contrary, men are never subjected to the kind of scrutiny or questioning when it comes to the same things. That’s why Bharat Matrimony seeks to put the spotlight on this issue by encouraging and empowering women to be choosy.”
