Dermicool Talc has released a new campaign for the summer season titled – ‘Garmi ki Pakad’.
With a fresh take on the jingle, the ad campaign has been conceptualised by What’s Your Problem, a Wondrlab company.
The film has been dramatised to show the monster that summer is, in the form of a fiery hand that follows unsuspecting people. While the campaign focuses on the problems caused by summer like prickly heat, body odour and sweat, it also illustrates how Dermicool is the ultimate solution for all these issues. Plus, the jingle "Aaya mausam thande thande Dermicool ka" adds a touch of nostalgia to it all.
V Kaushik Vedula, AVP-Marketing, Emami, said, “Dermicool Talc has always been associated with summers. But this time, we wanted to do something different, something even more memorable. So, we came up with the fiery hand. Its beauty lies in its simplicity. It is such a simple metaphor yet so impactful.”
Amit Akali, CCO and Co-founder, WYP Wondrlab India, and Gauri Gokarn, the Content Director, said, “In today’s world of reels, 5-second skippable ads and rapidly reducing attention spans, we wanted to create something that grabs and holds people’s attention. While Dermicool has always had a distinguished place in people’s minds, the fiery hand goes a step further and brings alive the heat of Indian summers. We think it beautifully checks all the boxes while also making it a memorable piece.”
With a 360-degree approach, the campaign plans to ingrain Dermicool as the go-to for summers and aims to create an impact with all the media channels including TV, Digital, and out-of-home extensions.
