The brand proposition ‘On Nahi, Full On’ is an energetic and fun-loving mindset that embraces the beliefs of this distinct viewer set. Creating an immersive experience for our viewers, we have createdrefreshing content blocks with ‘blockbuster premieres’, ‘Full on Dynamites’ that celebrates Gen Z of Bollywood‘, 2pm ‘Full on Time-out’ slot, Hollywood movies back to back with ‘Full on Hollywood’, and many more. Foraying into original content with ‘Footfairy’, a TV first initiative is a testament of our commitment to offer enthralling content to complement the viewers evolving consumption patterns.Through this re-energized experience, &pictures aims to cement our positioning in the minds of our consumers.”

Pegged on this premise, ‘On Nahi, Full On’, gives the dynamic young generation, a cue to maximize every moment without slowing down. And, we are bringing alive this Full-On ideology through the visual mnemonic of a ‘power on button’ and the ‘&pictures shorties’ our brand films that draws a connect between the consumers world and the role of &pictures to amplify life.”
 
Prathyusha also added “Consumers ‘choice’ is driven by what’s being aired on the channel but through our groundwork we know that brands image and perception also impact these choices. We tested 2 concepts with consumers, to help us learn their understanding and resonance, that led us to the winning concept – ‘On Nahi, Full On’. The rebooted brand philosophy could be a game changer in moving &pictures from the ‘known and listed’ basket to the ‘my consideration set’ amongst the audience.”
