It offers consumers extra nutrition in the form of more protein, calcium and iron, without compromising the taste and softness of the rotis. With this atta available soon, now it's easy for moms to provide extra nutrition to their families with this unique offering.

On this, Gayatri Yadav, Marketing Director, General Mills (India) said, "We spoke extensively to moms and learnt one key insight: Today's kids are different, and are more demanding of life. Moms often struggle to keep pace. This led to the creative idea of "Aaj ke Bacche, Aaj ka Poshan" ' kids of today need more from their nutrition to help them give more to life. Pillsbury Multi-Grain Atta seamlessly fulfils that need.

Yadav further added, "The campaign will be released across national and regional channels, and it will help create and drive the extra nutrition segment in the branded Atta market in India."
