Watch the ad film conceptualised by Ogilvy on the occasion of World Social Media, which falls on June 30, 2023.

Brooke Bond Red Label has collaborated with Ogilvy to launch a film titled “Red Label – India’s favourite Social Network” on World Social Media Day.

The film highlights the connection between social media lingo such as likes, shares, friend requests, reposts & trends and everyday moments in India, portraying Red Label tea as a catalyst for bringing people together.

The ad film further emphasises that while people celebrate Social Media Day on their apps, a cup of tea serves as India’s original social network, fostering conversations.

Talking about the campaign, Shiva Krishnamurthy, Vice President, Food and Beverages, Unilever South Asia, said, “Tea is India’s favourite Social Network. While this is obvious in hindsight, it is a refreshing way to pay tribute to India’s favourite drink. It is only befitting that India’s no. 1 tea brand, Brooke Bond Red Label does this. With its characteristic warmth, Brooke Bond Red Label brings out the uncanny applicability of social media terms to a cup of tea. We are excited to launch this campaign on World Social Media Day and hope that it resonates with all Indian chai lovers.”

Harshad Rajadhyaksha and Kainaz Karmarkar, Chief Creative Officers, Ogilvy India, said, “This campaign is thirteen years old! Our strategy partner Prem had shared this insight with us, back in 2010. Even today, it is super relevant. That is the power of this insight but that is also the power of tea. A simple but well-made cup of tea is the glue our country bonds over. Friends are made, friendships are rekindled and this tea time, is truly a time for togetherness. We love the way our director, Nobin Datta, has captured this. We hope the country loves it as much we do.”
