3. 1.Introduction
• Indian television industry-The Indian television industry,
consisting of television distribution, advertising and content, has
reported a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of ~13.8% over
the period 2005-2010 increasing to Rs. 26,550 crore, according to
industry estimates.( according to FICCI report)

4. Defining Product Placement
According to Schneider (2005), Balasubramanian (1994, pg 31)
made one of the first attempts to define brand placement, as ”a
paid product message aimed at influencing movie (and
television) audiences via the planned and unobtrusive entry of a
branded product into a movie (or television program)”.
Type of product placement
1.Passive placement- Indian idol 1 and rejoice shampoo
2. Active placement- L'Oreal on jassi jaisi koi nahi
3. Hyperactive placement- Indian idol 2 and Pepsi cafe chino
5. The Work on Effectiveness of Product Placement
Gould et al. (2000) found that people claimed they would buy the brands
shown in movies, this does not prove that they will actually do so. On the
other hand, Heath and Hyder (2006) found that consumers were affected by
adverts to which they claimed they had not been exposed. As we also noted
with consumers’ attitude toward product placement, very little work has
been done in measuring its effectiveness. Some studies have measured the
effectiveness through the audience’s memory of brands
• Memory System-The memory system is key to the understanding of the
influence that product placements
have on the audience , because research has shown that the memory system
strongly influences buying decisions (Vakratsas and Ambler, 1999).
6. Making Decisions-
An early model for how decisions influenced by feelings and emotions
were believed to be done (Adapted from the ”Typical information-processing model
of affect.”-figure of Zajonc (1980, p153
7. Measuring Effectiveness-
Effectiveness can be defined in a number of different ways,
depending on the overall goal of the placement. This fact
was noted by Law and Braun (2000, p1059), who state,
”little is known about its [product placement’s]
effectiveness nor even how to define and measure such
effectiveness”. Some researchers (e.g. Nelson (2002)) claim
that increasing awareness of a brand can be an important
goal of a marketing campaign and thereby justify their study
using memory-based measures (recall and recognition).
8. Summery of literature review
Several researchers have explored consumers’ attitudes toward
product placement in movies/ television. Firstly, they have
found that consumers were generally positive toward product
placements. Further, it has been shown that different cultures
have different views on placements. .However, no studies have
explored whether the attitudes vary between cultures and
genders, and no studies have investigated the potential link
between the attitude toward product placement in reality
shows and the buying habits of those players. Hence, it could be
the case that controversial placements in reality shows
influence consumers equally regardless of whether they like
such placements or not. If this is the case, it could be
questioned how important consumers’ views on placements
are, at least from a marketer’s point of view.
9. Before the studies on effectiveness of product placement were
reviewed, the human brain’s memory function and decision
processes were addressed. Through this, it became clear that no
single method of testing effectiveness could be claimed to be the
best, since it would depend on the overall goal of the marketer's
organization and the type of decisions that organizations’ customers
typically made. For this reason, studies that have used recall,
recognition, attitude change or observed brand preference to test
effectiveness were reviewed. Interestingly, it was found that the
type of product placement that appeared to be most effective was
highly dependent on the method used to measure effectiveness.
10. For instance, in movies, visual placement was shown to be most
effective when recall measures were used, but audio placement was
more effective in terms of recognition. Moreover, studies using
attitude change reported that the highest attitude change was made
when products were placed visually. Unfortunately, no
studies have explored whether visual and audio placements are most
effective in terms of observed brand preference.
11. 2.STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
This research highlights the basic reasons for placing products
and brands in reality shows with special reference to Hindi
television reality shows and the influence of these placements
as a tool for enhancing the recall value and purchase decision
of the brands in the long run.

26. 7. CONCLUSION
• The study has focused on the awareness of product placement in reality shows
among youngster in Pune. There is a very good awareness among viewer in
Pune. The results show that viewers were generally positive about product
placement in reality shows.
• We find that product placements in reality shows are effective. The high recall,
recognition and positive attitude scores suggest that brand managers seriously
look at product placements in reality show as a new vehicle for reaching to
customers.
• The large range of responses suggests that the type of product placement is
significant, irrespective of the brand being well known or lesser known. With
the growth of professionalism in Indian television and the growing need for less
cluttered communication channels, we feel that product placements can emerge
as a strong vehicle to communicate to the vast television-viewing population in
India.
27. However, a number of issues need to be kept in mind. Relevance of
product to the situation needs to be created: this is possible by
incorporating the placement planning at a script level, as practiced by the
US film industry. (Turcotte 2002). Respondents expressed concern about
the lack of good creative execution.
28. 8. RECOMMENDATION
• The increasing use of product placements in other media like
television, books, regional language films and computer games
might also be studied, as can long-term memory of product
placements. However, a number of issues need to be kept in mind.
Relevance of product to the situation needs to be created: this is
possible by incorporating the placement planning at a script level.
The high failure rate of in India mean that managers are ill
equipped to predetermine if audiences will convert negative
attitudes about the movie / reality show into negative attitude
towards the brand. As success of product placements is dependent
on the success of the reality show and consequently, its reach, it is
not possible to evaluate placements from a sales-generation
perspective.
