Indian TV shows like Shakalaka Boom Boom, Bigg Boss, KBC, MTV Roadies featured in the campaign, along with popular International TV series like Game of Thrones and FRIENDS.

With punchy replies like ‘taking back BIGG BOSS ki ankh (eye) to keep an eye on FRIENDS who don’t pay on time’ from Paytm, to ‘Har ek show zaroori hota hai’ by Zee Theatre, to MobiKwik’s ‘It’s so easy to recharge the Tata Sky accounts, one can sit on their SOFA, enjoy their favourite shows, and by the time the COOKER whistles 2 times, the recharge is done’ – the amusing one-liners proved to be a delight for the netizens.

We received surprising response from audiences and many brands making the overall activity very gratifying.”
Angad Singh Manchanda, CEO; Co-founder of Chimp&z Inc said, “World TV Day has always been and will continue to be an event close to our hearts.

We helped people celebrate this emotion with the help of popular souvenirs that have been ingrained in our minds with the magic of TV and the participation from not only the audience, but also other brands made the campaign a big success.”
