"And she's done justice to all the brands. For example, Trisha promotes a scooter whose target audience is college-goers. And Trisha portrays their aspirations beautifully: she's bubbly, young and fun, and this has made the ad more authentic," says Prasad Narasimhan, vice-president, marketing, of the brand.
Surya, who's a hot fave down south, is also endorsing a leading bike on national prime time TV. "He's our brand ambassador in the south. And even though the national campaign is dubbed from the Tamil version, he's started getting national recognition," says Narasimhan.
He adds that the brand demanded someone who's macho with an appealing personality because those are the qualities associated with the bike. "And we felt Surya fit the bill. And the nation doesn't see Surya as a southern hero; he's a protagonist in the ad," he says.
