Sanju is the first of many special films we will be working on for them. We worked closely with Indigo Consulting for this project, starting with putting together a specialist team comprising India’s finest social creative and digital marketing minds. The project team ensured that we not only were on top of the social piece but also indexed most of our product and effort to the holy grail – ticket sales.

Added Rajesh Ghatge, CEO, Indigo Consulting, “The digital platform allows a dialogue; it facilitates conversations and participation. A movie experience now is no longer limited to the show in the theatre – it extends before, during and after screenings. The experience allows deep discovery of the characters, stars, the subject and also artistes who have made it happen. We are excited to have partnered Fox Star in driving the digital mandate of ‘Sanju’. We got an opportunity to strategically and creatively drive its narrative and engagement on digital with the use of data led insights, nimble content and interesting platforms.”
