Jio Studios brings Bappa closer to people who can’t reach Him

Jio Studios - the marketing, content and advertisement agency of India’s biggest data network: Reliance Jio in its quest to combine technology with content today unveiled a VR technology driven solution to bring joy and happiness in the lives of several senior citizens by taking their beloved Lalbaugcha Raja to their homes.

The magnificent and enchanting Lalbaugcha Raja holds a deep routed connection with the people of Maharashtra by being the One who fulfils all wishes - Navsacha Ganpati. 
More than 1.5 million people visit this pandal every year to seek Bappa’s blessings in spite of the never ending queues.

On the auspicious day of Chaturthi this month, Lalbaugcha Raja arrived at His pandal amidst great fanfare, celebrations, dancing, chants of ‘Ganpati Bappa Morya’, and singing of devotional songs and aartis. However, many are deprived of this festivity and the feeling of being in the gracious aura of the divine Lalbaugcha Raja. 

Over 100 kilometres away from Mumbai, the residents of an old-age home, were disheartened for not being able to be a part of the grand celebration.

 “We just thought of a simple idea. What if we bring Lalbaugcha Raja to those who cannot visit Him personally.’’ said Aditya Bhat, Head of Jio Studios.

‘’This thought was so simple yet so exciting that we got working on it immediately. And the results are absolutely thrilling. I am truly happy for what we have been able to achieve,’’ he added.

The whole Lalbaugcha Raja experience was assembled with love in a VR head set and taken to these people. The moment they put on the head set, Bappa’s mooshak in various forms and avatars guides them through the city leading to the pandal and finally to the much awaited darshan of Lalbaugcha Raja.

“Their overwhelming reactions and the sheer bliss on their faces were the true reward for us which was definitely worth all the effort.” said Aditya Bhat.

Jio Studios also works with multiple non-compete brands to help them in their marketing, content and advertising strategies. Jio Studios has created multiple tech-content videos for brands like Jet Airways, MG Motors, Tresmme, Bigg Boss and many more.

 As a new-age content agency, Jio Studios believes in storytelling beyond the 30-second format. The company has conceptualized campaigns across mediums and understands the acceptance of content. It creates consumer immersive experiences with tech based content (AR/VR and 360 degree) to take advertising and marketing a step closer to the penultimate and ultimate buyer.
