Mumbai, March 18, 2013: Gitanjal Group has added yet another leading Bollywood superstar to its impressive list of brand ambassadors -- the superstar with the macho image both on screen and in real life, Salman Khan.  The star who has regularly churned out superhits each year, is endorsing the Group’s latest consumer offering – two attractive gold and jewellery saving-cum-purchase schemes, Swarn Mangal and Shagun.

A new campaign featuring the superstar has also been released in the print and electronic media. The TVC shows Salman Khan as a solution provider to his friend who is unable to plan the gold jewellery needs for his daughter’s wedding due to high gold prices. The print ad is a rendition of the same and details out on the plan.
Commenting on Swarna Mangal & Shagun, superstar Salman Khan said, “In India, jewellery is an integral part of all the special occasions like marriages and festivals. It represents prosperity and wealth and buying it is also considered as auspicious. While gold is a traditional favourite, diamonds have also become popular. By introducing savings schemes like Swarna Mangal and Shagun, Gitanjali Group is making it possible for consumers to pick up some dazzling gold and diamond jewellery at very attractive rates.”
