The three TVCs featuring Kalki Koechlin, Manoj Pahwa and Kunal Roy Kapoor, take a humorous road towards addressing the safety concerns of the consumers and are designed to instil a sense of self-security in their minds by showcasing them the strength of the ‘Manage Cards’ feature.

Each of the three TVCs cater to one of each features viz. ‘temporary block / unblock card’, ‘block / unblock online transactions’, ‘block / unblock international transactions’.

Ogilvy senior ECD Zenobia Pithawalla says, “Even though we use humour and exaggeration, we have still kept the communication extremely relatable, for people who are hesitant to use credit cards, owing to the fears associated with them.
