New Delhi: House of McDowell’s Soda has appointed actor Vijay Deverakonda as its latest brand ambassador, joining Kartik Aaryan in a campaign centred on friendship, referred to by the brand as Yaari.

Vijay, known for films such as Liger, Pelli Choopulu and Arjun Reddy, has a significant following across India, particularly in the South. His addition alongside Kartik Aaryan is intended to reflect connections across different regions and cultures through shared experiences.

Speaking on the announcement, Varun Koorichh, Vice President and Portfolio Head, Marketing, Diageo India, said, “House of McDowell’s Soda has built a legacy of celebrating friendships and fostering meaningful connections, the kind that creates memorable moments and unbreakable bonds. Over the years, the brand has continued to evolve with the changing tides of culture and consumer behaviour, while staying true to its core purpose: championing the spirit of friendship.

“Vijay Deverakonda embodies the values of today’s generation, real, grounded, and deeply connected to his roots. His authenticity and wide-reaching appeal make him a natural extension of the brand’s voice. With Vijay and Kartik together, we’re bringing two powerful storytellers into the fold, voices that reflect the emotions, aspirations, and friendships that define modern India.”

Vijay Deverakonda said, “Some of the most defining moments in my life have been shaped by the people who stood beside me, my friends who’ve been there through success, struggle, and everything in between. That kind of bond is rare, and it’s something I hold closest to my heart.

“That’s what makes this association with House of McDowell’s Soda so special. It’s a brand that celebrates the beauty of real, unfiltered friendships, the ones that ground you, lift you, and stay with you. There’s something incredibly powerful about staying connected to your roots and reliving those memories with your closest yaars. For me, this is more than a collaboration, it’s a partnership with a brand that truly reflects what I believe in. I’m excited for the journey ahead and everything we’ll create together.”
