Curiousity before release
Before the trailer release of Ayushmann Khurana starrer “Dream Girl“, the movie’s marketing team started a chain reaction of what proved to be the quirkiest marketing campaign.
First came the question, ‘Who is Pooja?’. This was a campaign run on social before the trailer’s release. A call recording where we hear the voice of a girl name Pooja talking to famous celebs. This campaign got people curious about ‘Who is Pooja’ and what this is all about, therefore, creating a good build-up for the trailer.

The ‘IVR Calls’
In response to the frenzy created just 2 hours after the release, the marketing team of Balaji along with Bookmyshow came up with an IVR calling number, where you can call and talk to Pooja.
BookMyShow officiated the IVR number and redirected the viewers to get a chance to call and speak to Pooja.
