BEHIND THE SCENES
Cadbury Milkinis was truly one of the highlights of our stacked year. Getting to work on a Cadbury project again after a little over a decade (our last one was Cadbury 2 in 1 “kitna maza aaye re”) made this especially close to our hearts. Aur usmein jitna maza aaya tha, utna hi maza ismein bhi aaye re.
This film was also our humble attempt to take everyone back to the world of 90s advertising, and it’s been incredibly heartening to see it resonate so organically transporting so many people back in time.
We loved every bit of the process and are finally excited to share a glimpse of the fun and madness behind it. From 2D pre-production to a high-energy live-action shoot with a brilliant cast and crew, all coming together inside a beautiful CG world this one let us combine three mediums we truly love working with.
