Description
Over one million people die in India due to smoking each year. While most youngsters are aware of the fact that smoking damages their health, due to their living-for-the-moment attitude, long-term harm to their health is not a deterrent ENOUGH to stop them from smoking. We gave them a more compelling reason - smoking could stop you from fulfilling your most cherished desires. We dramatized the fact that every cigarette costs you 11 minutes of your life with a tragicomic story. To engage youngsters online, we cast celebrities with absolutely contrasting images. Sunny Leone, most known for her sex appeal, and Alok Nath, a veteran actor who has recently been trending since he has been typecast as an overtly religious character. The unusual pairing grabbed the attention of young netizens and ensured the message got home.
This professional campaign titled '11 Minutes' was published in India in June, 2016. It was created for the brand: No Smoking, by ad agency: Scarecrow. This Film medium campaign is related to the Public Interest industry and contains 1 media asset. It was submitted almost 8 years ago.
