BlackCab has curated a campaign for the launch of Avartana, ITC Maratha's latest culinary venture in Mumbai. Avartana represents an exclusive blend of traditional and progressive renditions of southern Indian cuisine, rooted in the gravitas of the unique tastes, aromas, and flavours of Southern Indian spices.
The BlackCab team collaborated closely with ITC Maratha for the launch of Avartana, a restaurant already established in other cities and now expanding its presence in Mumbai. Their partnership focused on two key areas: content production and social media strategy. The content production team planned how they would create content for Avartana's first appearance in Mumbai, considering the best way to approach the project and what they wanted to convey, ensuring a captivating launch.
BlackCab leveraged its network agency model using its specialised short form content studio Secret Sauce Studios to produce the content for the Avartana launch. The project saw them capture an array of photos and videos together with architectural shots that emphasise the restaurant's beauty. The project focused on bringing out and articulating the thought and inspiration behind Avartana's five different multi-course menus. The BlackCab team spent time with the chefs to understand why the ingredients play such a vital role in the dining experience at Avartana. Following this, the team crafted a content strategy that would bring the space to life.
A workshop was conducted with the chefs and Secret Sauce Studios co-founder Alok Verma, to help learn the nuances behind the menu and bring out storytelling in the direction of the videos and in each of the photographs clicked. The storytelling prowess of BlackCab continues to radiate, creating a unique experience by unfolding captivating narratives and stories across various platforms and leaving a lasting impression on the audience. This campaign for ITC Maratha represents BlackCab's superior understanding of a discerning audience. BlackCab hopes to tap into the audience through the content and strategy created for Avartana.
