Idea ‘s Ullu Anthem not appealing
Idea cellular the flagship of
Aditya Birla Group.Idea is one of the operators with Airtel and Vodafone which
has focussed on PAN India Coverage.Idea being the 3rd largest mobile
network provider has left no stone
unturned in terms of branding.Idea has always focussed on Branding and
advertisements for building its brand value.Idea as a mobile operator always
focussed on value added services for differentiating itself in the market
place.Idea ad campaign has always focussed
on democracy,language,education and removing barriers.Be it “Walk the talk”,Use
Mobile Save trees campaign or the latest and popular “No Ullu Baanoning
campaign”.No Ullu Bannoing campaign has made Idea score high on brand recall in
the minds of consumers.Idea decision of
not featuring Abhishek Bachchan in these campaigns and primarily focussing on
Value added services ie mobile internet.It took the concept of
circumstances,situations and other possible sequences in which common man can
become fools.Consider shopkeeper selling fake goods,politicans false promises
or fake baba showing his miracles.Idea has actually empowered consumers to not
to get fools in all the circumstances by
saying that “No Ullu Bannoing”.These campaign has been highly successful and
well accepted by the consumers .Seeing this success Idea launched its new Ullu
Anthem on eve of independence day.Well the ad starts with the all the models
standing seriously and reciting the ullu anthem as if they are singing the
national anthem.The script,conceptualization,presentation and jingles of the ad
is so irritating when we compare it to previous “No Ullu Bannoing campaign”.It
was a clear disconnect from the prveious ads in all aspects of ad be it
jingles,concept and presentations.The ad on whole I felt that failed to strike
the cord with cosumers.Even though Idea was very innovative but losses its
charm during execution.
