It is not the first time that the new tech startup has launched sports personalities in their ads. Earlier, stars like Neeraj Chopra, Rahul Dravid, Venkatesh Prasad, jagval Srinath, Maninder Singh and Saba Karim have featured in some viral CRED ads which garnered immense limelight.
Until recently, only film stars and top cricketers were engaged for product marketing in India, but after the entry of star athletes such as Saina Nehwal, PV Sindhu and others, things have changed.
In September, CRED introduced to the world the never-seen-before avatar of gold-medal winning javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra, who created history by winning the first-ever athletics gold medal for the country in Tokyo Olympics 2020.
The viral commercial showed how people from different fields are looking to capitalise on the success of Neeraj Chopra. The star javelin thrower himself played different characters in the ad.
