Holi 2024 was truly a celebration to remember, thanks to the exciting campaign by Seagram’s Imperial Blue Packaged Drinking Water in partnership with Colors TV. With the tagline “Because Men Will Be Men,” the campaign brought a fresh, fun, and personalized twist to the festival of colors, creating a buzz across social media and among fans of popular TV personalities like Karan Kundrra and Kanika Mann.
This year, Holi wishes were no longer just ordinary texts or generic greetings. Instead, thanks to Imperial Blue and Colors TV, everyone got the chance to create customized Holi posters featuring their favorite celebrities and personalized with their own names — making the festive greetings truly unique and memorable.
Here’s a look back at how this campaign transformed Holi 2024 into a colorful celebration full of joy, creativity, and personal connection.
The Spirit Behind “Because Men Will Be Men”
Seagram’s Imperial Blue has always been known for capturing the spirit of friendship, fun, and a little playful mischief — perfectly summed up in the catchy phrase “Because Men Will Be Men.” This year, the campaign took that spirit and made it inclusive, inviting everyone to celebrate Holi with their own personal style.
Rather than relying on old-fashioned Holi wishes, Imperial Blue encouraged people to say goodbye to the “purane Holi wishes” and embrace something new — personalized digital posters that bring the festival’s energy to life in a fresh way.
The Stars Who Lit Up the Campaign
Karan Kundrra’s Festive Energy
Karan Kundrra, with his charismatic and relatable presence, was the face of the campaign’s energetic push. In the video released around Holi, he invited fans to join the fun by creating their own Holi posters through the website becausemenwillbemen.com.
Karan’s enthusiasm was infectious as he urged everyone to take charge of their Holi greetings: “Holi khud ka poster banao!” He showed how simple it was to pick your favorite artist, enter your name, and get a personalized poster ready to share.
Thanks to his star power, the campaign quickly gained traction, and many Holi celebrators found themselves enjoying this new way to spread festival cheer.
Kanika Mann’s Joyful Touch
Alongside Karan, Kanika Mann brought warmth and festive spirit to the campaign. She encouraged people to join the movement of saying goodbye to old, dull Holi wishes and instead embrace the joy of personalized greetings.
Kanika’s message was clear and heartfelt: Holi is all about sharing happiness and togetherness. Through her, the campaign reached a wider audience, making it clear that this new style of celebration was meant for everyone, regardless of gender.
Together, Karan and Kanika’s videos became the talk of the town, inspiring thousands to get creative with their Holi greetings.
The Personalized Poster Experience
One of the campaign’s biggest highlights was the easy and fun digital platform that allowed users to create their own personalized Holi posters. Here’s how it played out for those who joined:
- Fans visited the campaign website, becausemenwillbemen.com.
- They selected their favorite artist — Karan, Kanika, or others.
- They entered their own name to customize the poster.
- Within moments, a vibrant Holi poster personalized just for them was generated.
- These posters were shared widely on social media, WhatsApp, and with family and friends, spreading Holi cheer in a fresh, personal way.
This personalized approach was a hit, turning simple Holi greetings into memorable moments.
The Power of the Imperial Blue and Colors TV Partnership
Seagram’s Imperial Blue and Colors TV joined forces to bring this innovative campaign to life because both brands embody celebration, energy, and youthfulness.
