Music composer Ricky Kej got his third Grammy Award for the album Divine Tides on Monday. The Bengaluru-based musician shared the award with drummer Stewart Copeland of the British rock band The Police. Celebrating the win, dairy brand Amul has come up with a delightful creative, which also drew a response from Ricky Kej.
In the doodle, Amul's mascot can be seen next to Ricky Kej, who is holding the gramophone trophy. “Kej is all the Rej! For Garma Garammy snacks!” the text in the picture reads.
Reacting to the creative, Ricky Kej tweeted, “You know you have made it in life, when Amul acknowledges you through their comic strip. So grateful for all the love :-)”
