FCB Interface crafts Blazo campaign

FCB Interface crafts Blazo campaign

MUMBAI: As a next leg to the campaign launched in 2016, harping on the never-before guarantee: Get more mileage or give the truck back, Mahindra Blazo and Ajay Devgn are continuing the campaign communication in yet another dramatic, hard hitting manner. The campaign has been crafted by FCB Interface with another emphatic communication that underlines the success of Mahindra Blazo and how its mileage has lived up to the company’s promise.

The campaign is on air across leading television channels, supported by digital presence.

USP of the campaign/ product: Mahindra Blazo comes with a ‘Get more mileage or give the truck back’ guarantee and not a single truck has come back.

Film Description: The film opens dramatically with a shot that shows a pair of legs and the shadow they cast on the road. As the legs move, we see two trucks right behind and slowly it is revealed to be Ajay Devgn followed by two Mahindra Blazo trucks. As the film progresses, Ajay presents big facts about the Blazo and its FuelSmart CRDe engine and how it is living up to the guarantee that the company offers: Get more mileage or give the truck back. The biggest proof of performance is that ‘not a single truck has come back’! Delivered by Ajay Devgn in his own inimitable style, the film captures Mahindra’s confidence in its trucks in an emphatic manner.

Excerpt from spokespersons: Ajay Devgn “Such a guarantee is a very big thing for a brand ... and if not a single truck has come back then that says a lot.”

FCB Interface CEO Joe Thaliath says “Our internal investigation said that the ‘mileage guarantee’ campaign delivered successfully in the market. The challenge was to now step up the game and bring alive the success of Blazo to the customers. The fact that the Blazo is BSIV-ready adds to the opportunity … And yes, Ajay Devgn continues to be our ‘Suthradhar’ as he has proven to be the best fit for the brand.”

FCB Interface CCO Robby Mathew says “Some months ago, Mahindra made a claim that no other truck company in India would make. This film had but one objective. Tell the world what happened in the marketplace when the customer took Mahindra on their offer …."

Mahindra & Mahindra - truck & bus division sr. general manager - marketing Rajeev Malik says, “Our first campaign was a bold step. So we decided to extend the ‘mileage guarantee’ and at the same time bring alive the proof of performance of the FuelSmart-CRDe engine. That’s why our new film highlights the fact that ‘not a single truck was returned’ …."
