Khatabook gets Dhoni to prescribe “dhande ka vaccine”

Made by creative agency Fatmen, the ad tries to address the impact of COVID on small businesses.

The vaccine here is the Khatabook app that sends you reminders about any money due, so that business owners can manager their cash flow efficiently.
