We hope the audiences will celebrate the music and this festive spirit of the Pepsi IPL across the globe.” The much acclaimed ad man & Mudra DDB chairman, Sonal Dabral said “If Cricket is a religion in India; Pepsi IPL is it's only true festival.

And unlike any other festival in India, this is one festival that every Indian celebrates. It's got the colours of Holi, the festivity of Diwali, the brotherhood of Eid and the joy of X-mas. What else can you call it but one amazing 'India Ka Tyohaar'? It's been a privilege and an honour to create this big idea for Pepsi IPL. Here's to Sony! Here's to India Ka Tyohaar!"
