We are very excited to bring to our audiences the second edition. With Married Woman Diaries Phase 2, we are all set to share newer perspectives on the parenthood phase in the life of a married couple. SonyLIV is known to make contextual web-series and short-films With each new piece of content comes our deep understanding of viewers in India. Married Women Diaries - Phase 2 is also a result of deep insights from what urban young viewers want to watch.” Ajay Rawal – General Manager (Marketing) – Raymond FMCG added, “As a brand, we were pleasantly surprised by the response generated by Married Woman Diaries Phase 1. Acceptance of brand name KamaSutra in different media vehicles has its own challenges, hence we found the OTT platform a valuable source to disseminate brand messages. In our endeavour to appeal to youth who are mostly on mobile, we observed that the younger target audience has really seen and appreciated the series. We are extremely happy to partner with SonyLIV for Married Woman Diaries Phase 2, which is a post marriage scenario, equally apt for usage of KamaSutra products to bring back the zing in life amidst all challenges.”
