Gurgaon-based consumer electronics company, Micromax Informatics, is already the tenth largest manufacturer of mobile phone handsets. The company now attempts a complete brand make-over with a new logo and a new commercial showcasing a brand philosophy, couched in a funky tagline ? 'Nuts. Guts. Glory'.

Creativeland Asia has redesigned the brand logo and conceptualized the brand philosophy, to position the company for its next level of growth as a global player in Micromax 3.0. The television commercial that will project this new image, has been created by a Hollywood crew. The advertising film has been directed by Mikon Van Gastel and its cinematographer is Dan Mindel, the famed DOP of 'Star Wars', 'Star Trek' and 'Mission Impossible III'.

The new brand philosophy underlines Micromax Informatics' pioneering status as a company that has countered accepted notions and brought in leading innovative strategies, to reach out to consumers in India. The new brand identity carves out a modern and bold outlook for Micromax as a player in the global market.

The 'Nuts. Guts. Glory' campaign unveils the new cultural change underway at Micromax. It tells of the brand's intrepid founders who were nuts to dream big, had the guts to accomplish the dream, and have found glory in doing it. The film weaves in a story about software company, Micromax that rises to great heights in a short span of time.
