From Anil Kapoor to Kumar Sanu, Rahul Dravid and Neeraj Chopra, Cred has over the years roped in celebrities and also tried to highlight a lesser-known aspect to their characters. Now, the credit card bill payment app is making people feel nostalgic by giving a spin to cartoon character Chacha Chaudhury!
Launching its first animated film, which they titled ‘Not an ad’, the company teamed up Chacha Chaudhary and Suppandi in the latest video to highlight fast-paced changing scenarios in today’s financial world. For the 2.46-minute animated clip, the creators teamed up with Bakarmax, a popular webcomics and animation-design company, as it tried to take people down the memory lane. While Raghubir Yadav voiced the character of Chacha, Suresh Menon performed the role of Suppandi.
The film starts with Chacha Chaudhary making some ‘unbelievable’ claims such as technologies like mobile cameras and online transaction existed even back in his time. In turn, Suppandi says these technologies already exist in today’s world. During their epic banter, they discuss a myriad range of topics, starting from NFTs to billionaires going off to space, global warming and people’s daily addiction for memes and Reels.
The ad film concludes by bringing back the popular cartoon character of Sabu. And by then, it seems Chacha Chaudhury has learnt his lessons from the crash course he received and asks him to look into ways to make an ‘NFT of his brain’.
The video quickly created a huge buzz online and people couldn’t stop commenting on how much they love it. However, many joked that it would be a huge shock for Chachi to see how much the world has changed now.
Never did I ever imagine Suppandi giving Chacha Chaudhary a Reality check! @cred_club, this new ad film is awesome! https://t.co/Uomla7hSX9

I remember trolling @CRED_club for its ad with Madhuri Dixit and others. Man, they have changed the advertising industry itself.
