Getting lost gets a whole new meaning in the Cadbury 5Star campaign via Ogilvy India

Mondelez India Foods recently launched a new TVC for its latest renovation – ‘The extra caramelly Cadbury 5Star’, starring its iconic brand ambassadors, Ramesh and Suresh.

Showcasing the idea ‘Jo Khaaye Extra Kho Jaaye’, the new TVC by Ogilvy & Mather India has given the iconic duo – Ramesh and Suresh, a much more aspirational and cooler look as they go on a vacation. The TVC portrays Ramesh and Suresh sitting on a bench, getting extra lost in the taste of new caramelly Cadbury 5Star. Right next to them is a thief, eyeing the purse of a lady sitting on the adjacent bench. While, Ramesh and Suresh are engrossed in the immersive eat experience of the extra caramelly Cadbury 5Star, the robber attempts to steal the lady’s purse and run away, not realizing that Ramesh/Suresh had accidentally tied his shoelaces with that of the robber, causing him to fall flat on the floor. The film brings out the good in getting extra lost as the duo manage to save the day. The film once again manages to showcase the quirky behavior of the duo, bringing a smile to viewers’ faces.
