KFC declares 'Aao Lunch Karein!' as Colonel Sanders leads lunch police in new campaign

In KFC’s latest campaign for the all-new KFC Lunch Specials, Colonel Sanders leads a squad he proudly calls the KFC Lunch Police. Colonel Sanders and his crew have a single mission - catch those who think missing lunch is okay.

In the new campaign unveiled today, the KFC Lunch Police are seen visiting an office where everyone seems to have something to do at lunchtime, except eat lunch! Colonel and his crew swiftly move around grabbing people’s phones, shutting laptops, closing files, switching off the power supply, and much more. So that Lunch can get justice.

Confusion takes over every employee as they wonder what’s happening. Until Colonel Sanders declares that all lunch offenders are under arrest. After all, lunchtime par lunch ke alawa aur kuch karna is a crime.

The film ends with a powerful declaration of “Aao Lunch Karein!” by Colonel Sanders as he urges everyone to join in the lunch revolution and indulge in the KFC Lunch Specials.

Aparna Bhawal, CMO, KFC India and Partner Countries, said, "Lunch is often the most compromised meal of the day, because of a myriad of reasons – we’re on the move, or there’s an assignment to finish, a meeting to get to, pocket money running low, or simply because we want more variety for lunch. KFC Lunch Specials is a range of meals combining value and variety and will come to the rescue of those looking for an option that is filling and at the same time gives them good value for money at just Rs 149. The new launch is in line with our ambition to expand our core menu through interesting formats to provide unmatched variety and value to our consumers. With the range of options under KFC Lunch Specials, there is something for everyone to enjoy, whether they are existing KFC fans or trying our deliciously crispy menu items for the first time.”  

Ritu Sharda, CCO, Ogilvy-North, said, “Lunch doesn't always get the justice it deserves. Sometimes we work at lunchtime, or have working lunches, or skip lunch. We settle for what's available around us, at the table or in our bags, with convenience towering over love. With KFC Lunch Specials, we wanted to highlight this cultural shift that has slowly crept into our lives. So we created the KFC Lunch Police. Led by Colonel Sanders with a team of undercover lunch agents, who pop out of thin air and catch lunch offenders on the fly. It's a fun, slightly wacky, and a completely unmissable way to remind people that with KFC Lunch Specials, we are bringing back the adage, lunchtime means lunchtime.” 

Subsequent films in the campaign will showcase different situations and reasons people are compelled to skip lunch – whether it’s a boss who wants his team to eat the exact same thing each day or a college student whose pocket money won’t stretch for a lunch outside the canteen.

The campaign will run on TV and digital platforms, along with a robust 360-degree plan.
