New Delhi: In an exciting new partnership, Mountain Dew has teamed up with the iconic game show Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) to offer consumers a unique opportunity to win a wild card entry into the 16th season. The campaign, themed “Yeh khel ‘gyaan’ ka hai, par jeeta ‘himmat’ se jaata hai” (KBC is a game of knowledge, however, it takes courage to win it), aims to inspire viewers to take bold steps and pursue their dreams.
To participate, consumers can purchase special Mountain Dew x KBC packs, which contain a QR code. By scanning the code, they will be directed to a WhatsApp bot where they can enter a 16-digit code found behind the label, provide demographic details, and answer a qualifying question. Successful participants will have a chance to move on to auditions, with 10 lucky winners ultimately participating in KBC’s exclusive “Week of Courage.”
