Bhoothnath gets launched across social networking sites
EROS ENTERTAINMENT is promoting its newest movie Bhoothnath by targeting its young audience directly through social network sites. In the film, Amitabh Bachchan plays the role of a ghost who inhabits this house in which a child and his family moves in. The film also stars Juhi Chawla and has a special appearance of superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
Eros has lined up an exciting array of contests for autographed CDs and posters as well as interactive activities such as polls, discussions and exclusive images and videos for the Bhootnath community sites on Orkut, Facebook and MySpace. Eros’ development of film-specific communities on social networking sites supports the company’s ongoing strategy to connect online with Bollywood fans around the world.
“Eros was the first Indian media and entertainment company to partner directly with YouTube as we recognized early the rapid growth in popularity of social
networking platforms. Bhootnath is the perfect film for us to expand our social marketing reach and support as it has such great appeal across all segments of the market with the presence of a leading icon like Amitabh Bachchan as well as being a children’s film”, said Kumar Ahuja, VP International Sales & New Media for Eros International.
The film is released on 9 May.
