Link:- http://www.cadburyindia.com/in/en/Brands/Pages/videoplayer.aspx?vid=1649

Created by Contract Advertising, the film takes forward the Meetha Bomb campaign, which showed people getting completely lost in the taste of the Eclairs candy, with the chocolate 'exploding' in their mouths.

The tagline this time is 'Doob Le Zara'. The film shows the protagonist being extremely bored at a retro-styled social gathering. As he pops an clairs, things seemingly change for the better - with the scene suddenly turning into a fantasy which gets more upbeat as he delves further into his chocolaty fantasy. He is brought back to the present soon - but not before he smilingly looks at another clairs in his hand. The play in both the Meetha Bomb and the current film is on the experience of eating the Eclairs and hence, explosion has been used as the creative device. The key insight used was consumers getting lost with every clair. Reviews: - "Stuck in a bored situation, pop the product and voila! Nothing new! The casting and acting, too, were rather predictable. The concept is too close to the 5 Star commercials, which also talk about getting lost in the taste idea.

5) 2011 New TV Commercial Cadbury clairs rang in the New Year 2011 with an exciting new addition the new Cadbury clairs Rich Brownie priced at Rs. 2. The agency was again Contract Advertising.

6) 2012: TV Commercial Tagline: - Get Lost While the new variant is banking on the chocolate fountain, the original Cadbury's Eclairs is experimenting with the Lost in Taste proposition.

Conclusion:The new tagline is far below the average creative standards for the reason that another brand from the same company i.e 5 Star is having the same positioning. It is common sense that it is not advisable for two brands from the same company to have same positioning. Positioning has to be unique and should not be shared unless it is a branded house. The entire campaign has a negative tone coupled with the tagline which itself is negative.

Fun facts from Parles website:


http://www.parleproducts.com/brands/parlemelodychocolaty/#

Parle Melody doesnt have an Official Facebook page where as Cadbury clairs has a dedicated Facebook page where in the number of like is more than 1 million. Both basically use Television commercials for the purpose of Promotion and advertisement. Parle Melody has stuck to the same tagline i.e. Melody itni chocolaty kyu hai? Melody Khoa Khud Jaan Jao!! Whereas for Cadbury clairs it has gone through quite a revolution from 'Kar De Dil Pe Jadu' to Very Tasty Very Useful to Chocolate Ka Meetha Bomb to Doob le Zara to Get Lost. But the Group still feels that The Tagline of Melody is unique and more effective when compared to Cadbury clairs because of the fact that Cadbury clairs campaign feels synonym to that of 5star advertisement. Both Cadbury clairs and Parle Melody are using the Integrated Advertising as Cadbury clairs online campaign on orkut and facebook was similar to the TV commercials where Parle Melody TV commercials and it online website focuses on the same concept that why is Melody so Chocolatey. Both Parle Melody and Cadbury clairs focus on the point that the recipient of these candy gets engrossed in the yummy taste and forgets everything else but the tagline of Melody has had a more everlasting and deep impact on the individuals.
