Oo La La La Le O, the iconic jingle composed in 1996, made way for a racy rap avatar in 2019. The very next day, he presented Ramamurthy the idea. “I wanted to strike while the iron was hot,” Singh said to himself. Singh was convinced that his boss would be receptive to his idea.

Interestingly, the two big boys at UBL discussed Gully Boy for a good 15 to 20 minutes. After normal business conversation, the managing director started talking about the movie. Luckily for Singh, ‘his time’ came when Ramamurthy called him on Monday, a day after the latter had watched the blockbuster. “At the end of the day, I just had one person to convince: The managing director,” he thought to himself.Ĭan Bisleri's 'smart' camels outwit 'donkeys'?

Singh’s team was already halfway through making a new campaign for the Indian Premier League (IPL). The job, though, was easier said than done. The massive popularity of the song, and the film, prodded him to think of the implausible: Overhauling the iconic Oo La La La Le O jingle of Kingfisher, which has been the identity of the brand since 1996. The movie, Singh recounts, brought rap into the mainstream. Apna time aayega had, by default, become a youth anthem-one for both rebellion and inspiration.

What he found most striking, though, was the way that its most famous rap song caught the fancy of the nation.

The movie that grabbed the attention of the top honcho at India’s largest beer maker was Gully Boy, the Ranveer Singh- blockbuster. Shekhar Ramamurthy, managing director at United Breweries (UBL), managed to squeeze some time out of his fiercely hectic calendar to hit a theatre.
