SOTC Travel announced the launch of its latest campaign featuring six vibrant films in six key regional languages. This innovative initiative aligns with the brand’s positioning: “No one understands the Indian Traveller better than SOTC.” As the Company celebrates its 75th Anniversary, this campaign underscores its commitment to being a truly Indian brand that resonates with the diverse rhythms of its travellers, positioning itself as India’s favorite travel partner.
The campaign artfully connects with the modern young Indian traveller, weaving unique cultural narratives into an engaging storytelling format and a fun, playful manner. Each of the six films has featured young couples from the Company’s key markets; capturing the essence of the respective region along with global aspirations. For example, the West Bengal film features passion for football, Maharashtra with cricket, Gujarat with business, Tamil Nadu with education, Karnataka with technology and North India with fashion. Despite their diverse holiday dreams, all the couples share one common choice of booking with India’s favorite travel partner SOTC. This highlights that SOTC understands the complexities of holiday planning, while catering to varied regional preferences of its customers.

In a country as diverse as India, every state and region has their distinct cultural underpinnings and nuances. We tapped into these unique local insights and idiosyncrasies to mount a campaign that stays true to its essence and yet when put together threads itself into a consistent brand narrative. Each film explores the dynamics between a modern progressive couple and how their contrasting ideas of an ideal international holiday get bridged by SOTC.”
