Star India has rich haul of 21 metals at ABBYs

The Star India Network emerged as a strong winner at the prestigious ABBY Awards at the Goafest, 2017, with a tally of 21 metals; 15 of which were entries by Star India with 6 awards going to agency partners – Mindshare and Social Street.

Nayi Soch, Star’s marquee campaign that won hearts across the Nation, was a big winner with 3 Golds, a Silver and 2 Bronze, along with  POW-Bandhi Yuddh Ke, which bagged a Gold, 2 Silvers and 2 Bronze. Following up with five more metals was Star Jalsha’s memorable ‘Bring Them Back’ campaign commemorating the West Bengal Police – it took home 3 Silvers and 2 Bronze. Rounding off this rich haul were awards received by Star World’s Koffee with Karan, which won in two categories, and Hotstar’s Splits, Jungle Book on Star Plus and Star Movies’ Book Adaptations War Promo, which won a bronze each, for an impressive network total of 4 gold, 8 silver and 9 bronze wins.

"We are delighted to win big at ABBYs this year. Our shows and brand campaigns have always reflected our intent to entertain in a meaningful manner. It is great to see such campaigns resonate well with the audiences and be recognised on an industry platform like ABBYs", said, Gayatri Yadav, President – Consumer Strategy & Innovation, Star India.

The campaigns have mirrored the intent and quality of Star India content to not just entertain, but also empower. While the memorable #NayiSoch campaign has challenged the stereotypical societal mind-set by bringing women to the forefront championed by heroes like the Indian cricket team and superstar Aamir Khan, ‘Bring Them Back’ has highlighted the issue of human trafficking; both, milestones in the network’s on-going mission to bring about critical and much needed societal change.
