One of the most loved and recalled brand tunes present in the country, the historic Nerolac jingle has been winning people’s hearts over decades. The ‘Ghar Ki Raunak’ song has been sung in 8 popular regional languages viz: Hindi, Bangla, Malayalam, Marathi, Punjabi, Telugu, Tamil and Kannada, as the brand deepens its connect across audiences.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Peeyush Bachlaus, Head – Marketing, Kansai Nerolac Paints Ltd said, “Painting in India is considered synonymous with celebrations & happiness in our lives; be it big festivals or milestones like job promotion & welcoming a guest etc. A painted wall helps relive these celebrations even after they are over. The richness of our regions prompted us to explore occasions and weave them through the language of music that people would enjoy. Using the iconic Nerolac jingle was a natural choice.”
