Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Iconic American brand, Zippo celebrated the spirit of ‘The Real Man’ with a rocking party on Thursday in the city of dreams – Mumbai. Attended by the trendsetters of the glam world, the celebration was a commemoration to the ‘Zippo Real Man’ campaign that kick-started in the month of August.
 
The campaign integrated the belief that having a story makes a man unique; having a Zippo lighter makes him a man.
 
The classic ambience of ARK blended well with the essence of the party which highlighted the Real Man code. An exhibit of the top six characteristics chosen from the ‘Zippo Real Man’ Twitter contest was displayed giving guests a sneak-peek to the Real Man photo shoot.
 
“Our ‘The Real Man’ campaign in India highlighted the essence of the ‘Zippo Man’, emphasizing his strength and reliability. Our partnership with leading men’s magazine, Maxim has helped us execute a successful campaign which started with a Twitter contest, curated into a photo shoot and has now culminated with the ‘Real Man’ party in Mumbai. It’s been a great opportunity to engage directly with our target audience in India and demonstrate the Zippo brand values,” said David Warfel, Director - Global Marketing, Zippo Manufacturing Company.
 
Amongst other famous personalities, Bollywood actor - Ali Fazal continued his participation and felicitated the lucky winner of the Real Man Twitter contest with a Zippo hamper who was unanimously chosen by Zippo and Maxim teams.
