Singaporean gourmet donut brand Mad Over Donuts has announced its association with Bollywood Film – Go Goa Gone. This is the first time Mad Over Donuts will be associating itself with a film.
Announcing this association, Mr. Tarak Bhattacharya – COO, Mad Over Donuts stated, “Mad Over Donuts is India’s 1st gourmet donut brand known for its vibrant and youthful customer connect. On the other hand Go Go Gone is India’s 1st zom-com based on youth, friendship and fun. Both Mad Over Donuts and Go Goa Gone share the same target group and thus associating with this movie seemed like a perfect fit. Its our 1st film association and as a Brand we are willing to explore this platform in future as well.”
Tanaaz Bhatia – CEO/Founder of Bottomline Media Pvt Ltd, the agency that was the behind the association, states, “Creating the Zoombie Keel-er donut was a fun process. Go Goa Gone and Mad Over Donuts are all about innovation and creating new spaces in their own field. Marrying the two , just made it a perfect fit for us to come up with the association, which has never been attempted before.”
“It’s a cool association. Both are fun brands! Ours is a mad, wacky film and they are Mad Over Donuts,” says the director-duo, Raj & DK. “In fact in the last couple of years, we’ve got into the habit of taking their dozen pack to parties.”
