The actor’s vivacious and pleasant personality image which also resonates with today’s Indian men and women, was found to be appealing and the right choice to become the face of ‘Mantra’ spices. Her commitment to her profession and the flavour that she brings to each of her characters was a perfect match with the brand’s strong commitment to its consumers to provide best of taste, flavour and aroma to cooking. The collaboration with Katrina Kaif is expected to reach out to audiences across age groups with ever-changing taste preferences across the Indian geographies.
The brand’s USP is in its rich and pure aroma, colour and taste that comes from the use of the unique Cryogenic technology. The Cryo-processing at zero to minus 50-degreeCelsius helps the spices retain highest level of all the natural oils up to 95% as compared to traditional grinding process using heat up to 70 degrees Celsius, where essential oils are retained only up to 40%. The brand has also been awarded the “Superior Taste Award” from the International Taste Institute of Brussels (Europe) for its excellent quality of spices. Additionally, the brand’s blended variety of spices comes in zip-lock packs to preserve the freshness and aroma for a longer period.
On the occasion of this association, Jayant Goenka, director, Emami Group, said, “We are extremely elated to be associated with Katrina Kaif, one of the leading and vibrant actors of Indian cinema. We believe that she is a perfect fit for Mantra Masala as her credibility, hard work and commitment resonates with the values of our brand. We do believe that her popularity and huge fan following will help us connect better with our consumers across the country and make Mantra a preferred choice of a spice brand. We have also drawn up aggressive marketing plans for Mantra and target to reach around 25 lakh outlets (both direct & indirect) by next three years.”
