Dollar ropes in Akshay Kumar and Yami Gautam for its thermal wear range; to launch new TVC featuring the actors

Dollar Industries has roped in actors Akshay Kumar and Yami Gautam as brand ambassadors to promote its existing range of thermal wears. 

The brand has also shot its new TVC ‘Thand Ka Weapon’ featuring both Akshay and Yami for Dollar Ultra Thermal.

The TVC, created by Lowe Lintas, builds on the fun and entertainment quotient and showcases Dollar’s thermal range as a must-have in every Indian winter wardrobe.

“As part of our vision to be part of every Indian’s life, we wanted the new generation to experience our wide range of thermal wear which not only promises ultimate comfort but also keeps the wearer warm against extreme cold and harsh weather conditions. Thanks to extensive product research, our R&D team has come up with a unique technology intervention (Wintershield Technology) which helps retain latent heat, keeping the wearer warm. We wanted to convey the message that winters are not to be taken lightly and roped Bollywood superstars, Akshay Kumar and Yami Gautam, who also endorses our brands Dollar BigBoss and Dollar Missy respectively, to create a memorable campaign that would appeal to both men and women across every age group. We are affirmative that the Dollar Ultra Thermal range would be an instant hit and find its place in every winter wardrobe,” said Vinod Kumar Gupta, Managing Director, Dollar Industries.

The TVC featuring the brand ambassadors is set against a chilly winter night. Two burglars break into the house through the fireplace flue. However, the sound draws Yami’s attention who is terrified that the burglars have weapons in their hands. She wakes up a sleeping Akshay who assures her that they have a better weapon to combat the burglars. A synchronised song and dance sequence ensues as Akshay and Yami open all the windows and doors letting the cold in and ultimately freezing the two burglars.

As the police arrive, Akshay warns the burglars against taking winter lightly and hands them over a pack of Dollar thermals -the ultimate weapon to combat cold.

“We wanted to break away from the usual stereotype of winter communication by creating an entertaining song and dance number that addresses the fact that winters are not to be taken lightly while clearly landing the message that Dollar Ultra is the ultimate Thand Ka Weapon to combat extreme weather conditions,” said Sagar Kapoor, Chief Creative Officer, Lowe Lintas.  

The campaign will go live across online and offline platforms.
