Woohoo On RadioOne with MJ Prithvi!

If you are an avid listener of Radio One in Bangalore, we hope you didn’t miss listening to the fun woohoo youth promotional program on July 26th! The witty radio jockey Prithvi and Woohoo’s Chief Marketing Officer, T. P. Pratap spent a great hour talking about Woohoo, music and life in general. We don’t know who was funnier – Pratap or Prithvi. Read all about the program below!

They Made A Real Fun Team!

As all RadioOne fans know, Prithvi is beyond funny. He’s always ready with a witty comeback, and can make just about anybody laugh. He also really cares to know more about the people he interviews and the things they represent. Pratap introduced Woohoo.in, and explained how one can customize gift cards for any value. As an example, he mentioned how one could order a gift card for Rs. 1233 from Titan Watches for Prithvi. That got Prithvi very excited indeed! Prithvi’s humor is infectious and it was an entertaining programme indeed!

Funny Moments From The Show

Kya Hua Tera Waada: Prithvi played Kya Hua Tera Waada because Pratap said he used to hum this song while growing up. Immediately, Prithvi started pulling Pratap’s leg, wanting to know who he was thinking of while humming it. Pratap was quick with the comeback; he said that he’s thinking of all the people who’ve not signed up on Woohoo.in yet!  Does your friend also love nostalgic music? Go ahead and gift him or her a Woohoo gift card from Landmark, Planet M, or Flipkart.

Cocktail And How Safe Is Saif!! Prithvi asked if Pratap has seen the movie ‘Cocktail’, and Pratap said there’s no way he’s going to miss watching those two ravishing ladies in the movie. Prithvi snickered and said it’s lucky that Saif Ali Khan is in the movie to save those two ladies from Pratap, which made both guys wonder: exactly how SAFE is SAIF for those ladies? Hey by the way, want to gift someone the Cocktail movie? Grab a PVR Cinemas gift card from Woohoo.in. It’s a great way to enjoy the entire PVR experience!

A Spelling Challenge: Towards the end of the program, Pratap challenged Prithvi to correctly spell Woohoo’s parent company’s name, QwikCilver. The prize? A gift card worth Rs. 5000!! Gosh, Prithvi’s brain started working overtime. Though he came up with various combinations, Prithvi still got the spelling wrong. Got a friend who loves mind-challenges? How about buying him or her a Woohoo.in gift card from Flipkart, Landmark or Oxford Book Store?

Woohoo.in Makes Gifting Fun!

How to Gift a Movie Experience?

As far as gifts go, people tend in terms of tangible items such as books, watches, music and so on. Gifting an experience is a unique gift option which is catching on nowadays. A gift experience can be anything – a meal, a trip, or a movie that’s covered by a gift voucher.

How the Woohoo.in Movie-Gift-Experience works?

Your gift recipient will receive a beautifully packaged PVR Cinemas gift card, along with a personal message from you. The message makes the gift ultra special – you can squeeze in all your sentiments into it. The stylish gift package will contain a gift card with a unique barcode and magnetic strip. The value you’ve purchased will have been loaded on the card – all that your recipient has to do is swipe the card at the theater.

The package will also contain information on how the card can be used, along with the card’s validity. Your PVR gift card can be used not just to pay for the movie, but also to make purchases at the movie café. So, make it as generous a gift as possible to enable your recipients to enjoy themselves fully.

A Movie Experience can be a Great Gift!

For example, if your parents’ silver jubilee wedding anniversary is coming up, wouldn’t it be wonderful to gift them a great movie experience? Your parents can visit the theater, select the movie or movies that they want to watch, and enjoy each other’s company to the fullest. They can also enjoy in-theatre luxuries such as being served tidbits from the café, and order for snacks while watching the movie. They will remember their movie experience fondly every time they think of your gift. For you, it’s just a matter of purchasing the gift card online at Woohoo.in.

A Movie Experience is appropriate for anyone!

This is a great gift option even for corporate organizations, when it comes to gifting specific employees as part of employee reward schemes. Since it’s the gift recipient who chooses which movie to watch, a movie experience is an appropriate gift even for clients. Think of this option also for your customers, friends, and family members.

A Movie Experience is special, even as a generic gift!

A movie experience makes for a memorable gift that people always remember for the emotions it generates. Still, it is a generic gift, because what you’re gifting is the actual experience itself, and there’s nothing personal about that. The special aspect comes from what the experience means to the couple or group of friends who enjoy the movie. People quickly forget who gifted them which book or CD, but they don’t easily forget experiences.
