Mumbai: SAB TV, India’s only family comedy entertainment channel launches fourth phase of its brand campaign in keeping with its brand promise of “Asli Mazaa SAB Ke Saath Aata Hai". The campaign reiterates the brand promise of light hearted shows that the entire family can enjoy together.

After almost everything about the couple being divulged by the families, the grandmother intervenes and says that let the prospective bride and groom talk to each other. In the end, the prospective groom is seen asking the bride’s family if the proposal has been accepted by her. With this, everyone bursts out laughing. The TVC brilliantly showcases that families have understood and accepted the SAB brand promise and enjoy spending life’s moments being together.

Commenting on the launch of the new brand campaign, Mr. Anooj Kapoor – Executive VP & Business Head, SAB TV, said, “We offer light hearted content which, appeals to the entire family audience and in the new version of the campaign we will reinforce the message with a mix of humour and emotion.

Gillette Mach3 Turbo Sensitive came on board to support the Shave India Movement 3, following the results of a Nielsen survey, revealing the preference for the clean-shaven look by a majority of Indian women. The movement kick-started earlier in January, with the Stop Prickly Men’s Stubble campaign supported by leading Bollywood divas Preity Zinta, Neha Dhupia and Malaika Arora Khan. Stop Prickly Men’s Stubble is one of a kind movement started by like-minded women to tell men that their stubble is prickly for women and they need to get rid of it by shaving EVERYDAY.

To add momentum to the campaign, Bollywood actors Arjun Rampal & Malaika Arora Khan came to the rescue of Indian men by solving the eternal mystery of – What Women Want and that was clearly clean-shaven and well-groomed men.

Gillette Shave Sutra - World’s Largest Shaving lesson saw 150 men getting the ‘perfect shave’, helping them to look and feel their best. These men along with their partners, all supporters of the Gillette Mach3 Turbo Sensitive, Shave India Movement 3, gathered in an attempt to create a record for the world’s Largest Shaving Lesson – Gillette Shave Sutra in the Guinness Book of World Records, Limca Book of records and India Book of Records.

This is a great moment for India with so many couples having gathered here today to signify that men should get rid of their stubble and sport the clean-shaven look.”


Commenting on her support to Shave India Movement 3, actress Neha Dhupia, said, “Women find the act of shaving their men alluring. With this movement, Gillette has put forward a unique thought that shaving can be made a fun activity that both partners can engage in and enjoy together. With the overwhelming success of the campaign, I see more and more men stepping forward to shave and be more thoughtful towards the needs of their women. The Nielsen survey highlighted that 89% men agree that Sensitive skin needs a sensitive shave. I am glad that Gillette has launched the Mach 3 Turbo Sensitive at an affordable price of Rs 125/-, for men with sensitive skin who can now shave everyday even on the more sensitive areas of their face”.

Speaking on this historical occasion that is poised to go down in the world-record books, Sharat Verma, Marketing Manager, Gillette India Limited, said, “Today is truly an incredible moment as Gillette is all set to create the shaving world-record yet again this year. Gillette has always believed in enabling men to look and feel their best and the launch of the Gillette Mach3 Turbo Sensitive razor at Rs 125 is a step in that direction. Mach 3 Turbo sensitive is backed by excellent research and technology that provides consumers with sensitive skin a close and comfortable shave with less irritation, even on the most sensitive areas of the face - including the neck and jaw line. It makes shaving effortless”

Gillette Mach 3 Turbo Sensitive Shave India Movement 3 would not have achieved the success it has without support from renowned celebrities like R Madhavan, Tisca Chopra, Samir Soni, Anchal Kumar, VJ Bani, Radhika Pandit, Shruti Seth, Danish Aslam and Niketan Madhok, Rhea Saran etc, who played a key role in influencing more and more consumers to join this movement.


Steps for a Perfect Shave

Below are the five steps to a Perfect Shave that we aim to educate women on to attempt the record for the largest shaving lesson

1. Soak before you shave – Beard hair is about as tough as copper wire, soften it by washing your face and neck with warm water and a mild soap, removing natural oils and perspiration that inhibits water penetration. After approximately 3 minutes of soaking, your beard hair will be optimally softened; infact the force required to cut beard hair is reduced by almost 70% after only 2 minutes.

2. Apply shave gel – Although water is an essential softening agent, it evaporates quickly. Shaving cream or gel moisturizes and softens beard hair, creating a protective layer of lubrication to maximize razor glide. In addition, using a shave gel reduces friction between blade and skin, improving razor glide for a smoother shave.

3. Use light, gentle strokes – Use light, gentle strokes with or against whisker growth for ultimate comfort with a superior quality razor and rinse frequently to prevent build-up on the blade edges.

4. Shave tricky spots last – The toughest hairs grow on the chin and around the lips. Save these areas for last as more time soaking in shave gel will soften them further.

5. After shaving, rinse your face with cool water and pat dry – At the end of every shave, rinse your face and neck with cool water to close pores and soothe freshly exfoliated skin. Rinse your razor thoroughly and shake off excess water before storing. Do not wipe the blades as this can damage the fine shaving surface. End, your shave, with a superior after shave lotion which calms and moisturizes your face after shaving.

Mumbai: SAB TV, India’s only complete family comedy entertainment channel entertains their viewers this Holi with lots of interesting sequences happening in their shows.

In the most popular comedy, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, the news spreads that Sundar has gone missing from his home in Ahmedabad. After receiving a threatening call from Ahmedabad, Jethai instructs Dayaben not to allow her brother to hide at their house as he is absconding with a lot of money. But being the doting sister, Dayaben goes against her husband’s wishes and hides her brother Sunder in their house. They manage to keep this big secret from Jethabhai for four whole days.

On the day of Holi, Sunder is tempted to go outside and join everyone else in the celebrations. He decides to cover his face with a lot of colour so that nobady can recognize him, especially Jethalal. However the secret cannot remain covered any further and his true identity is revealed.

In Ring Wrong Riing too it’s a magical holi with Manasi & Vijay.
In Papad Pol, Kokila wants to be the first one to color Vinay but Vinay is too quick for her and manages to colour her first. But all around them, it seems to be a lot of silence as no one else seems to be in the mood to play. Vinay tries to cheer his friends by reminding them of the other times Holi would be celebrated in the ‘Pol’. That cheers them all up and they begin to enjoy the festivities. Meanwhile, RJ enters with Dev and Mrinal to do the ‘Bhoomi Pujan’. However a bucket filled with coloured water tied to a tress falls down on RJ which makes him quite angry. He leaves. Vinay throws colour on everyone and everyone continues to enjoy. Kokila notices Hetal’s absence and goes to look for her. She finds out that Hetal is missing her husband Manu. Kokila cheers her up and makes her join in on the festivities.

In the delightful comedy Mrs. Tendulkar, the society members decide to celebrate Holi, but there is no water. Unable to play Holi without water, they complain to the municipality and finally, their problem is resolved. Amongst all the society members gathered to enjoy the festivities, Suhas realizes that Kamla tai is not around. He discovers that she has locked herself in the house and refuses to come out. Not willing to be defeated and wanting to finally get all the details, Suhas decides to take the help of the rest of the society members and a human ladder is made.
As he begins to climb up, he gets tempted by a plate of ‘bhajias’ and falls down. Finally, he manages to enter the house with Vibha and is surprised to see a different side of the ever-so-strict Kamla tai. The mystery of her strictness is finally resolved and Suhas manages to convince her to let down her hair enjoy the festival with the rest of the society members.

In true traditional style, this time, the people of Lapataganjdecide to celebrate Holi with the famous Lathhmaar Holi of Barsaane. All the ladies get very excited they get a golden opportunity to hit their men. However, it is not only the women who want to beat up the men. Mama has fallen in love with Lalan’s sister who is a widow and he plans to reveal his emotions to her on the occasion of Holi. But Biji is angry with Mama for being against his marriage with Surili.
