Mirinda Pagalpanti Solution



About the Campaign


Exam time is pressure time, not just for the students but the entire family. This exam season, some brands are addressing this serious issue through their campaigns. Mirinda, the orange-flavoured beverage from PepsiCo, lent its voice to the cause that matters to Indian teenagers. Frayed nerves and tension take center stage in the daily lives of teenagers during exam time.

The campaign, launched across the country, is all about engaging TG by inviting ideas of "Pagalpanti – the madness" they can think of! As the brand tag line is "Pagalpanti Jaroori hai"; the campaign invited "Pagalpanti Ideas" – the crazy ideas.
