Adani Wilmer Deputy Chief Executive Angshu Malik said that Saurav Ganguly will continue to be our brand ambassador. We have temporarily banned our TV ads. We will work with them again.

Malik said that our cooking oil is not a medicine. Heart disease occurs due to many reasons. These include genetic problems with catering as well. The brand’s creative agency Ogilvy & Mather is looking into the matter. We are working on a new campaign. Please tell that Ganguly was made the brand ambassador of Fortune Rice Bran Cooking Oil in January 2020.
