Patrons have to tag their friends and family members who resemble that quality. On tagging, each patron will get gratification from the brand.
In this pandemic situation, people exchange messages with their loved ones through social media platforms. We want people to engage and participate more in festivals so that the festivity traditions are not washed away because of this pandemic. By tagging friends and family members of the goddess Durga’s qualities is a special way of complimenting and showing your love and respect towards that person during this festival time. “Mr. Paresh Mishra, Senior Vice President, Sales & Marketing, EsselWorld, Water Kingdom and EsselWorld Bird Park.”
