Vritti Imedia conducted a successful event during Pandharpur Wari.
The objective was to make the pilgrims aware of life insurance and provide free service to them. Also, the event focused on building the brand by associating with several social development programs.
Why is Pandharpur Wari ideal event for such campaigns?
The reason is simple; it is the biggest and most beloved religious event in Maharashtra. People from every nook and corner of the state come to Pandharpur to have a glimpse of Lord Vithoba.
Taking a holy dip in the Chandrabhaga River and having ‘Darshan’ or ‘Pandharinath’ are two most momentous events in the life of every devotee.
The tradition is said to be as old as 800 years and every year, and the number of pilgrims is increasing every year.
No wonder, it is the ideal occasion for brand building, brand creation, and promotion.
