Campaign India First Cut: Titan Raga's new commercial

Watch the making of the ad film and the final version, created by Ogilvy & Mather

The new commercial for Titan Raga is set in an art fair. Katrina Kaif, the brand ambassador, sneaks into a tent, and tries her hand at the potter's wheel. When the clay threatens to drip down her wrist to her Titan Raga watch, she attempts to take it off with her teeth, but isn't able to. She notices a young man who's been watching her, and asks him for help. The two engage in a little flirtation in the process.

Campaign India First Cut found out that the set took almost six days to make, with everything being made from scratch.

On the campaign, Arkadyuti Basu, senior creative director, Ogilvy & Mather Bangalore, said, "Titan Raga is about celebrating the femininity and sensuality of women. That's really been the brief, over the years. If it were different in any way with this campaign, it would be to make it more contemporary while retaining the core values of the brand."
