MUMBAI: Deafening! Pounding! Lots of Jumping! These are a few words
that come to mind when one thinks of last nights event at the popular
discotheque Fire n' Ice. The occasion was India's 'First Singles
Party' organised by Swiss watchmaker Swatch. The event will air
today on In Mumbai.
Explaining the logic behind the concept, Country Manager Swatch
Group India G Kannan said that the party was an attempt to offer
Mumbai's youth an out of the box experience and get out of the mushy
feeling that one associates with couples in love.
Music spun by DJs blasted in one's ears accompanied by innovative
Swatch TVCs, which were aired, on a giant screen. New actress on
the block Esha Deol put in an appearance to unveil a special Valentine's
watch 'Aiming For Your Heart'. The watch features multi coloured
hearts covering the numberless dial. The gold toned hour hands are
meant to symbolise cupids love arrows.
James Bond fans may recall that to celebrate the anniversary of
the spy last year, the company had launched the James Bond Series
of 20 watches each named after a Bond movie. Swatch was launched
in India three years ago.
