India’s central bank – the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has launched another interesting Ad campaign with 9XM. Part of the RBI Kehta Hai initiative, the campaign aims at creating awareness among the common man about ‘RBI’s Ombudsman’ facility.

Commenting on the integration with RBI, 9X Media’s Chief Business Officer, Mr. Punit Pandey said, “We are happy to present RBI’s popular mascot MoneyKumar in a unique avatar, that of a shayar. We have taken the Shayari Route to drive the important message of ‘Jaankaar Baniye, Satark Rahiye!’  From creating just a song with artist Virus in our first integration to animating MoneyKumar and creating a song which was used in all prime time shows like KBC, Indian’s Super Dancer etc ., to now presenting him as a shayar, our long term association with RBI has been extremely memorable. It has also been a great experience partnering with dentsu, Lodestar and Prachar to build all the creatives’ of RBI. The shayar avatar of MoneyKumar will definitely resonate with the viewers.
