The campaign is going to be launched on OTT video streaming platform Disney+ Hotstar, short video platforms along with PlayerzPot’s social media channels.
Talking about the campaign and his association with the brand, Kiku Sharda said, “Out of all the comic characters I have played so far, this avatar is very different in both its approach and appearance. It was also very exciting for me to share screen space with a sports star like Bhuvi. The idea and the script are very apt and interesting, given our love for cricket, especially IPL.”
