Lay’s unveils new tvc campaign with alia bhatt and siddhant chaturvedi

Expanding its brand footprint in the country, Lay’s, India’s favourite chip brand, is introducing a new flat cut chip and its thinnest range of chips ever - Lay’s Wafer Style. In the endeavor of bringing unique offerings to consumers, Lay’s Wafer Style chips are exceedingly thin-sliced and are available in three delightful flavours – Salt & Pepper, Tangy Treat & Sundried Chilli providing a melt-in-mouth crunch in every bite to consumers.

Inspired by the thinness and slender look of the chip, Lay’s Wafer Style takes the consumers on a delightful journey through the launch of TVC campaign ‘#PaperThinWaferThin’, which features Lay’s brand ambassador and Bollywood Superstar, Alia Bhatt, and rising Bollywood actor, Siddhant Chaturvedi. 

Sitting together in a library, Alia and Siddhant indulge in a moment that comes alive through their playfulness and camaraderie.
