“With over 50 million active users on WhatsApp in India who every day share millions of videos & images with individual friends & groups it was an obvious choice to use WhatsApp as a platform. The only challenge was the restriction by WhatsApp where a broadcast message cannot be sent to more than 250 friends/WhatsApp users but WhatsApp has specially removed this restriction for this campaign”, says Venky Mysore, CEO of Red Chillies Entertainmet.
The film is produced by Red Chillies Entertainments Pvt Ltd and distributed by Yash Raj Films worldwide. The mega film will release this Diwali in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu languages and stars Shah Rukh Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani and Vivaan Shah.
