Grey gets the creative mandate for RBNL!

Post a multi-agency pitch process in Delhi, Reliance Broadcast Network Limited has entrusted Grey India with its creative duties. The pitch process saw participation of several leading agencies. Grey Delhi will handle 92.7 BIG FM, BIG Magic ( UP, MP, Bihar and Jharkhand)  and Spark Punjabi (part of Big CBS), Grey Mumbai will handle Big CBS Prime, Big CBS Love and Big RTL Thrill

Confirming the development, Dip Sengupta , VP and Branch Head, Grey Delhi said “It’s a big win for Grey India. When we entered the fray, it was for the radio business , a hugely exciting opportunity. What makes the win sweeter is being awarded the mandate for the entire RBNL portfolio. What helped was the fabulous chemistry with the client, along with hunger, passion and some sparkling work !”

According to Dheeraj Sinha, Grey’s Chief Strategy Officer, South & South East Asia “This was a pitch which didn't feel like one. It felt like we were partners discussing strategy and responding to creative ideas. The vibe between the teams on both sides has been great and that to my mind is the biggest starting point to a successful partnership. I am fascinated by the role of media in today's changing cultural landscape and see a BIG opportunity for us in this space, especially with the width of offering Reliance Broadcast Network has across radio and television. We look forward to redefining some codes in this space” he added further.

“As usual we didn’t approach the creative through traditional above the line advertising. We tried to find solutions for BIG FM, whether they came through programming, slugs, on-ground activation, events or digital ideas. Most importantly we had great fun working on the pitch and that obviously showed in the work we presented” says EVP and National Creative Director of Grey India, Amit Akali.

For Jishnu Sen, CEO & President (Grey India) Delhi is a priority market this year and starting the year with this win is of huge significance for the agency. “It's like having 15 runs to make of the last over and hitting the first ball for a six” he stated.
