Celebrating Mother’s Day, ZEE has launched #MyFirstStoryteller campaign capturing the often unacknowledged role of a mother as every child’s first storyteller.
The campaign shines a spotlight on the pivotal role countless mothers play in getting their child to experience their first range of emotions through storytelling.
Speaking about the campaign, Kartik Mahadev, Chief Marketing Officer, Content SBU – ZEE, said, “This campaign celebrates the storytellers that our mothers are, an innate quality that is essential nature to the role that mothers play in shaping lives and cultures. As the storyteller of many Bharats, we believe that mothers in their role as primary caregivers, set their children off on a trail of discovering life by sparking their curiosity. It is, after all, our mother’s very first stories that lay the foundation of our core value system, shape us and in turn shape society.”
