Roshan will play a key role in creating a brand connect and enhancing brand recall with the local audience in India. Says Sudhin Mathur, general manager, Sony Ericsson India, “India is a very exciting market for us. Bollywood is one of the most effective routes to reach the Indian audience. It offers instant entertainment, instant identification, instant star power and it strongly influences popular culture. Hrithik was an obvious choice for us, as he is the perfect synonym for the Sony Ericsson brand values of performance, lifestyle and entertainment. He connects with audiences at an individual and collective level and is aspirational and cool for the youth, just as Sony Ericsson is.”
