International Coffee Day: Swipe Till The End Of Zomato's Post For A "Surprise"

Zomato shared popular characters from movies and web series, showing their love for coffee, while Fevicol gave a spin to its elephant mascot to suit the occasion.

A cup of coffee not only helps give a great jumpstart to the day but also lightens the mood. That is perhaps why a day is dedicated annually to celebrate coffee as a beverage. On International Coffee Day, which falls on October 1, people share their love for the drink, billed as a conversation starter. Acknowledging this feature, many corporate houses try to engage with their customer base on this day. This year, Fevicol and Zomato led the celebrations with smart marketing campaigns. Both companies shared images (and messages) on their Instagram handles that “talk” about coffee and how it helps people bond or uplift their mood.

Zomato shared popular characters from movies and web series that appear to show their love for coffee - with the help of some hilariously-Photoshopped pics. From Guddu Bhaiya and Kaleen Bhaiya from Mirzapur, to the sharp Srikant Tiwari of The Family Man and funny Uday Shetty of Welcome, everyone enjoys a cup of coffee in Zomato's post. It also features Rahul Raichand and Anjali from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.

“Rise and smile coffee lovers, except the ones who smiled after looking at the last slide,” Zomato said. “Happy Coffee Day and Smile Day everyone!”
