Speaking to afaqs!, Suvodeep Das, head, marketing, Kaya, says, "We will use social media to converse and engage with our target audience. This will include dissemination of general information related to skin, cosmetics and healthcare through social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, blogs and forums." A bloggers' outreach program is also on the cards.
