Commenting on the agency appointment, Saujanya Srivastava, Chief Marketing Officer, Go-MMT Group, said, “We have a long standing association with Publicis. The team has helped us deliver successful marketing campaigns for MakeMyTrip in the past, including the recent one on MakeMyTrip Assured Hotels proposition. Post the merger with the Ibibo Group, we have high impact marketing plans to pursue.”

He added, “For the first time ever in Ibibo’s journey, we now have a high profile celebrity, Deepika Padukone, on board as the brand ambassador of Goibibo. The recently launched Goibibo campaign delivers the message in line with our business objective while keeping the brand essence and philosophy intact. The TVCs have been received very well and we are confident of an equally positive impact on our business.”

Hemant Misra

Hemant Misra, CEO of Publicis Capital, said, “Ibibo is a really exciting brand, full of new ideas and innovations.  It was a challenge for us to create the impact we did with MMT for Ibibo but in a completely unique Ibibo avataar. Working with category leaders allows us the advantage of exploring new boundaries. We have done it with MMT with great success and look forward to doing it with Ibibo.”

Bobby Pawar, MD and Chief Creative Office, Publicis South Asia, said, “I am blown away by the faith that Go-MMT has placed in us. It is a testament to the quality of our partnership, the work we have created together and the results it has produced. The new campaign for GoIbibo does not attempt to recreate the magic we did for Makemytrip, but to conjure up a different kind of magic that is right for the brand.”

Publicis Delhi’s client list includes names such as Nestle, MakeMyTrip, Goibibo, Spice Jet, Beam Suntory India, Intex, Mrs Bector Foods & Specialities, to name a few.
