Wringley's Doublemint tells a 'fresh' new love story

Wrigley's Doublemint Mints TVC

MUMBAI: Released on Youtube on 21 October, the new TVC of Wringley's Doublemint conceptualised by BBDO Indua and directed by Shoojit Sircar has already garnered over two lac views.

The advertisement that depicts a heartwarming love story of a young boy Adi & his new neighbor Niara. The advertisement is based on the fresh and beautiful cover of “Ek ajnabee hasina se," originally sung by the legendary Kishore Da. Reiterating the recently launched Doublemint© Mints freshness proposition, the love story around the quintessential romantic Indian couple encourages us to ‘Start Something Fresh’ whilst making ‘long lasting connections.'

Wrigley India MD MV Natarajan said, "The Doublemint© Mints TV advertisement fantastically weaves in the essence of connections that Doublemint© stands for. It is seen enabling the young couple falling in love."

BBDO India  CCO and chairman Josy Paul added, "The role of Doublemint is to help create new connections and start something fresh. Like the innocence of true love – you can’t write it; you can only wish it. Love just happens when you are busy doing other things. That’s what this campaign is about! When I saw the offline of the film, I was moved to tears. I called Shoojit way past midnight bawling like a teenager. It took me back to the purity of love. It’s not advertising, it’s the sound of a world looking for a more meaningful relationship. We are not just selling chewing gum or mints; we are spreading the hope of better connections."

TVC director Shoojit Sircar shared, "This has been such an interesting journey for me personally. We brainstormed and sorted through close to a hundred songs before settling on ‘Ek ajnabee hasina se’, which fits beautifully to the story. And, we have added  a refreshing take to this Bollywood classic. This TVC debuts with fresh faces who have brought Adi and Niara to life. The actors, Banita and Shubham, beautifully portrayed the innocence of a first time love story with absolute purity. This advertisement aims to tell a simple tale of a young couple embarking on a new connection infused by the freshness of Doublemint© Mints."
 
The advertisements are being aired nationwide from 22 October, 2016.
