Considering that video has taken over the social media platforms to ramp up online consumption by creating social experiences, even India has emerged as the video-first market. Here, Instagram riding on the favorable wave of videos have seized the opportunity to deliver unparalleled entertainment and expanded its features by incorporating Reels that have been spreading like a wildfire.

Talking about the campaign, Mr. Joy Chatterjee, General Manager, Sales & Marketing, Mankind Pharma, “Over the years, we have seen the changing pattern in the content consumption, earlier people used to rely on text based content but things have changed and people have started consuming more video content to visualize the overall concept and understand in a better manner. Instagram Reels has become one of the most used content platforms by the audience as per the reports and the responses we have seen personally as well. We at Mankind Pharma have always prioritized our consumer requirements, so we came up with this campaign to engage with the audience. Our audience wants information but in a quirky and fun way and I feel Instagram Reels is one of the best platforms to create fun loving content.’
