“SALAAM AND NAMASTE DONO KARNE MEIN HI SWAG HAI” SAYS PEPSI® AND SALMAN KHAN



~Brand unveils special initiative featuring brand ambassador Salman Khan to encourage social distancing while greeting each other~
Mumbai, May 29, 2020: As people in India and globally, are gearing up to embrace the new normaltraditional greetings like Salaam/Namaste have never been more relevant. In an endeavor to make these contactless Indian greetings a part of the pop culture, Pepsi®, along with brand ambassador and Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, today introduced an exciting digital forward campaign. The video campaign aims at inspiring the world that greeting each other with Salaam/Namaste is a perfect way to ensure social distancing and yet maintain connections responsibly.
The video is an extension of youth centric campaign – ‘SWAG SE SOLO’ and is based on three relevant insights. The cultural insight which recognizes salaam and namaste as an inherent part of the nation’s culture; the social insight which recognizes the importance of social distancing in the new world; and the consumer insight which recognizes the people’s need to express themselves in a fun and engaging manner. It encourages behavioral change through adherence to social distancing norms through a simple act of doing salaam/ namaste in an entertaining manner.
Speaking about the campaign, Pepsi® brand ambassador and Bollywood superstar, Salman Khan said, “Social distancing is the need of the hour and I am proud to partner with Pepsi® in this culturally relevant campaign. All our life, we have been taught to care about others and to maintain social distancing in today’s times, is an extension to that lesson. I truly believe that there is real swag in greeting people with Salaam & Namaste as you are not only keeping yourself safe but others too, in the process. Together, Pepsi and I, salute people who are embracing these contactless forms of greetings.”
A PepsiCo India spokesperson said, “Existing habits and beliefs have never been challenged as much as they are being today. Social distancing will take centerstage as people step out of their homes once again. Pepsi® as a responsible brand, aims to champion the cause of contactless greetings by encouraging people to use our old age traditional ways of greetings with Salaam/Namaste.”

  3. Happiness is all i see now I never thought that I will be cured from HERPES virus again. I have been suffering from a deadly disease (HERPES) for the past 3 years now, I had spent a lot of money going from one places to another, from churches to churches, hospitals have been my home every day residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this faithful day, I was searching through the internet, I saw a testimony on how DR agaba helped someone in curing his HERPES disease, quickly I copied his email which is Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com just to give him a test I spoke to him, he asked me to do some certain things which I did, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he did, then he asked me to go for medical checkup after some days after using the herbal cure, behold I was free from the deadly disease, he only asked me to post the testimony through the whole world, faithfully am doing it now, please brothers and sisters, he is great, I owe him in return. if you are having a similar problem just email him on : Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com or WhatApp: +2349074536486
