  • Client

    Wrogn (Indian alt-fashion label equivalent to Supreme)

  • Format

    • TV
    • Digital brand films

  • Focus

    • Brand differentiation
    • Behavioral storytelling

  • Goal

    Promote Wrogn by turning silence into a brand statement during the Indian Premier League, a cricket event with Super Bowl-level viewership.

  • Role

    • Conceptualized the campaign idea of surrendering primetime ad space as a form of brand authorship

    • Wrote a three-part “ad series” that offered nothing to sell and everything to signal

    • Aligned messaging tone with the brand’s anti-mainstream DNA and cricket icon Virat Kohli’s irreverent public persona

  • Result

    • Aired during the IPL, which draws over 400 million viewers across digital and broadcast

    • Cut through a hyper-competitive media environment by doing the opposite of what every brand was doing

    • Positioned Wrogn as a brand that lives its values by how it behaves, not just how it looks
