The film will be released across digital platforms – YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.

Birla Gold Cement, a trusted leader in the cement sector, made its maiden foray into sports by associating with the leading team and the defending champions of Season 5 of Vivo Pro Kabbadi league Patna Pirates as their official team sponsor. With a heritage of commitment to quality, Birla Gold has played an important role in building modern India. Right from the establishment of its first plant in 1974, Birla Gold has written a legacy of superior technology, constant innovation, incredible customer experience and above all, a product that has stood the test of time.

Jayant Dua, Chief Executive Officer, Birla Gold Cement, said, “As Birla Gold continues to solidify on its position as leading cement brand, it’s vital that we have the right agency partner on our side. We were impressed by the strategic and creative depth behind the work for which BBH is known and look forward to collaborating with them to make our brand stand across the category. The latest film is testimony to this.”

Russell Barrett, Chief Creative Officer & Managing Partner, BBH, said, “We’re extremely excited to be working on Birla Gold and our first film with the Patna Pirates is a great way to announce this partnership. We want to build a modern contemporary, relevant brand in this category and while this film is about the association between Patna Pirates and Birla Gold, we all feel it sets the tone for lots of interesting work in the future."
