NEW DELHI, Apr 2: In their bid to connect with their huge global fan base, IPL franchise Mumbai Indians today launched a three-tier campaign on digital platform which will run through the entire duration of the cash-rich league.

The first part of the campaign “Akkha Mumbai Khelega” has been designed to catch the essence of the ‘Maximum City’ and their passionate loyalty towards one of the most popular franchise of the IPL.

The campaign started today on MI’s official facebook page and twitter handle ‘MIPaltan’ where the spirit of Mumbaikars will be depicted.

The second phase is the extension of the fan song, having short videos on the concept of ‘Hul’ — a typical Mumbai’s characteristic of challenging the opposition, where all of Mumbai gets to give ‘Hul’ to their opponents.
