What is the history behind the Mauka Mauka Ad Campaign?
The ‘Mauka-Mauka’ ad campaign was first launched ahead of the ICC ODI World Cup 2015 India’s fixture against Pakistan. Although it was planned as just a single ad for India’s Group Stage fixture against Pakistan in 2015, the appreciation that the Ad Campaign received resulted in the broadcaster launching a series of ads for the upcoming years which get released ahead of every IND vs. PAK clash in ICC events.
The creators of Ad Film- Bubblewrap Fims- then selected Vishal Malhotra for the role of the Pakistani Supporter. While the music composers approached Chandigarh-based singer Alamgir Khan to record the jingle for the advertisement.
And now with the recreation of the ‘Mauka Mauka’ Ad campaign for the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 on plates, Vishal Malhotra is back to play his role as a Pakistani supporter. And there comes a twist in the new “Mauka Mauka’ Ad campaign as Indian Player Ravindra Jadeja is wearing a Pakistan team jersey. Now what is the exact plot of the Campaign what will be known after the teaser of the same will be released?
Meanwhile, India has never lost to Pakistan in the ODI World Cup 2023. They emerged victorious in every 7 matches they have played with India.
On the other hand, the Pakistani clan who were facing difficulty in getting visas for traveling to India for the ODI World Cup 2023 has finally received their Indian visas. The delay in visa issuance has created chaos & resulted in strong protests from cricket enthusiasts. However, ending all the speculations around Pakistan’s travel to India, the visa department has finally issued Indian visas to the entire Pakistani Contingent. The team will depart for India on 27 September 2023.
