Gionee India names Prabhas as its Brand Ambassador

Gionee India has announced the onboarding of Prabhas as brand ambassador. This news comes as a big announcement considering Prabhas has earned nationwide recognition and popularity post the release of the blockbuster hit “Bahubali: The Conclusion”. Gionee’s new campaign #Selfiestan introduces to the world a new generation of Hindustanis.

Gionee’s current associations include the charismatic Indian Skipper – Virat Kohli, reigning queen of Hindi films – Alia Bhatt, dynamic and bold Dulquer Salmaan, versatile Diljit Dosanjh and the loved actress Shruti Hasan. The smartphone giant has also been the principal sponsor for “Kolkata Knight Riders” in the Indian Premiere league for the last three years. Taking its association with the biggest cricket extravaganza forward, the smartphone giant also bagged jersey sponsorship for Royal Challengers Bangalore this season, hence becoming the first brand ever to bag the jersey sponsorship for two IPL teams in the same edition.

Arvind R. Vohra, Country CEO & MD, Gionee India, said, “We are extremely proud to announce our association with the mighty Prabhas. He is one the most loved and respected personalities in the country today and has earned this recognition basis his flawless and strong performance.

The company is betting big on Selfie and Battery as the winning proposition for the Indian customers and with the catchy peppy number Selfiestan to back the brand, Gionee is all set to penetrate further into the country.
