Ethnic wear brands Manyavar and Mohey have rolled out a new campaign featuring actors Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna, developed and executed by Prachar Communications.
Designed as a moment marketing activation, the campaign taps into audience interest around the pairing of the two actors while aligning with India’s peak wedding season. The initiative was conceived and executed within a short turnaround window, leveraging Prachar Communications’ long-standing partnership with the brand. The campaign has been rolled out across digital and social media platforms, with additional amplification planned through cinema, print and outdoor media. The creative approach combines celebrity presence with storytelling centred on contemporary wedding celebrations.
According to Prachar Communications, the campaign was conceptualised and executed in under three days, drawing on the agency’s decade-long association with Manyavar to facilitate faster decision-making and coordination.
In the first few days following its launch, the campaign has recorded significant traction online. The collaboration post featuring the two actors crossed 100 million cumulative views on Instagram within 72 hours, generating over 8 million organic likes. Across platforms, the campaign has now surpassed 300 million views, while reaching more than 250 million users.
Engagement metrics include over 4 lakh shares, nearly 65,000 reposts and more than 29,500 comments, with engagement rates estimated at 7–8% across platforms.
Rakshit Jain, Director, Prachar Communications said, "Pulling off a campaign like this in just three days felt like orchestrating a high-stakes performance. Our decade-long relationship with Manyavar gave us the trust and clarity to move fast, and having Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna on board amplified the excitement beyond what we could have imagined. Seeing millions of engagements in a couple of days proves that when deep collaboration meets bold and thoughtful execution, you can turn a tight timeline into a cultural moment that truly resonates."
Speaking about the campaign, Rashmika Mandanna said, "Manyavar Mohey has a beautiful way of celebrating weddings through emotion and storytelling, and that’s what made this association special for me. The outfits are not just elegant and fashionable but also showcase incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail."
Vijay Deverakonda added, "This campaign stood out for me because it captures the real energy and dynamics of relationships. The concept, the music, the outfits—everything came together in a way that feels contemporary yet deeply connected to tradition. The collaboration with Rashmika and the team was energising, and seeing how the audience responded so enthusiastically reinforced how impactful well-executed storytelling can be."
Vedant Modi, Chief Revenue Officer, Manyavar, said, "Partnering with Prachar has always given us the freedom to experiment and push boundaries while staying true to Manyavar’s vision. For this campaign, we wanted to capture the energy, fun, and emotion of modern weddings and bring it to life with Vijay and Rashmika in a way that feels authentic. Prachar’s deep understanding of our brand and our audience allowed us to take bold, creative decisions with confidence. Only a deep and trusted partnership like this could enable a campaign of this scale. With just five days to turn it around, this was the only team we could trust to deliver at this level. The response from audiences shows that combining strong collaboration, thoughtful storytelling, and star power can create something that resonates far beyond just a campaign."
Vedang Jain, Director, Prachar Communications, said, “Working with Manyavar and Mohey for over a decade has always been an enriching experience for us. With a brand that constantly looks to evolve and position itself as a market leader, campaigns like this give us the opportunity to experiment and create conversations that stand out in an increasingly cluttered social media landscape. When Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda came together for this campaign, the idea was to channel the immense curiosity around them into a cultural moment for the brand. Seeing that translate into the most-liked organic branded collaboration post in India is incredibly gratifying and a testament to what long-standing partnerships with Manyavar and the right strategy can achieve.”
