In the saturated telco scene of Bangladesh, customers seek three major things from their operators – price, network and offers. Price is the key recommendation driver and Banglalink has been catering price benefits for their customers. This thematic is a continuation of the story, where we previously claimed Banglalink as the “Champion of giving more”. Now, this TVC showed the customers’ point of view, where they get happier after receiving Banglalink offers that gives them more of everything than anyone else in the market. We created three specific dance moves that symbolizes “With Banglalink”, “getting more” and “happiness” to communicate the brand proposition consecutively. We took Shakib Khan and Nusrat Faria as our protagonists who have a huge fan following in Bangladesh. Using them as protagonists have helped us to generate huge response and positive word of mouth. These dance moves went viral in tiktok and other social media platforms as thousands of people replicated the dance move there.

Bangladesh is the only country to have shed blood for the rights to language. In 21st February 1952, several University Students sacrificed their lives in protesting against the then ruling Government decision of imposing Urdu as the only state language of Bangladesh (Then East Pakistan). Recognizing such a noble act by the language martyrs, UNICEF, in 1999, decided to declare 21st February as the International Mother Language Day. Bangladeshis today recognize the song ‘Amar Bhai er Rokte Rangano Ekushe February” (My Brother’s Blood Spattered on 21st February) as the most influential musical piece remembering the sacrifice made by the martyrs. On International Mother Language day – 21st February, Grameenphone, through a unique Digital content, paid a tribute to Late Altaf Mahmud – the composer of this very song. We believe that the student’s combined voice, and languages will shed a whole new light on the iconic song.

This year on ‘The International Day for the Elderly’, we took an initiative to highlight the role of the elderly in society and raising awareness of the challenges they face in today’s world. To raise awareness about this issue, we have emphasized the toll time takes on an aging father and his son. Time plays a large role in our relationships – those who once raised us and cared for us become those in need of our care and assistance. We love them, perhaps in many ways we provide for them. But time is the one thing we fail to give to the elderly. Time is always the one thing we run out of. It is our responsibility to be compassionate and attentive to people, whose bodies and minds are failing them because of the hands of time. We should appreciate the elderly while we still have the chance, while there’s still time. Film advertisement created by Mediumrare, Bangladesh for Frutika, within the category: Food.

Despite being teased, they never stop trying doing something new everyday, breaking barriers every moment.

Independence is more than a moment in history, it’s a legacy. In 1971, Bangladesh gained its independence – a glorious occasion we celebrate every 26th March. With these national celebrations come joy, hope and sentimentality; yet, we forget that independence is not simply an achievement, it is a complex idea that comes with constant struggle and responsibility, from the individual as well as a culture.Surrounding Independence Day every year, the media has a tendency to be tackily sentimental and traditionally monotonous in their themes and communication. However, with this campaign, we decided to break the mold with a genuinely disruptive and bold take on the meaning of freedom – using the power of slam poetry. A new direction for a telecom giant such as Grameenphone, the spoken word piece is raw, powerful and visceral. With electric visuals, immersive sound design and a complex narrative, the campaign is truly innovative in terms of the usual Independence Day content in Bangladesh. The AV features a young woman waking up and narrating how the basic beauties of life, and independence form a double edged sword. As sweeping, colorful and hard hitting visuals take us on a trip across the nation – we see the everyday hypocrisies, pollution and crimes that we casually excuse as well as the hope, connections and progress coming our way, only to be dismantled by debates and the natural divide that comes as a token conundrum of a world brought close by the digital media, yet torn so much further apart. Taking off the rose coloured glasses of sentimentality, the multifaceted notions of freedom are explored with the power of slam poetry. Amidst a vast sea of sentimental content, this AV is both thought provoking and disruptive, reinstating the values that come with freedom and establishing Grameen Phone as a brand that prioritizes the nation’s ideals.

Words hurt, even if it’s just online. Cyberbully is a grave matter all over the world, even so in Bangladesh where 47% of the nation’s growing online culture has faced some form of cyberbullying. To address this issue, we’ve created an anti-cyberbullying campaign for Grameen Phone/Telenor, the largest mobile operator in Bangladesh. Grameen Phone’s massive customer base and presence as a trustworthy national brand makes them perfect for this campaign to be highly impactful. Often, online forms of violence are not considered consequential or problematic, leaving many anti-cyberbullying messages to be ineffective. Our campaign addresses this head on by drawing shocking parallels between cyberbullying and physical torture. The graphic depiction of online violence in such visceral fashion instantly draws attention to the issue while also establishing a coherent message – cyber violence is just as real as any other kind. Grameen Phone’s campaign is the first step to combating this issue. Further collaborations with Bangladesh’s national ITC division are underway to take this campaign forward and create a hotline to address cyberbullying.
