Zomato has launched a series of AI-generated advertisements tailored for its restaurant partners as part of its ongoing campaign during the Tata IPL 2024 season. These ads, conceptualized by Zomato's in-house creative team and directed by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, feature Zomato's brand ambassador, Ranveer Singh, alongside Samantha Prabhu and cricket icon Cheteshwar Pujara.
Zomato goes the 'AI' Way
The AI-generated ads aim to capture the essence of friendship, the love for watching cricket matches together, and the joy of ordering your favourite food online. Each ad highlights the name of the restaurant partner and a signature dish, serving as a personalized promotional tool during the high-demand cricket season. These contextualized advertisements are tailored for every match on JioCinema's IPL feed on CTV.
