Aviva Life Insurance kicked off a series of road shows across 19 cities of West Bengal, Bihar, Orissa, Assam, Meghalaya and Sikkim – "Control mein ya kismet pe", keeping in line with its tag line "Kal par control".

One of Aviva’s several initiatives to expand its customer base in India and grow the Indian Life insurance market, a one of its kind road show aims to build awareness amongst the masses about the importance of Life Insurance. Beginning from Murshidabad in West Bengal, the road show will travel through Burdwan, Midnapore, Balasore, Keonjar, Aangul, Sambalpur, Rourkela, Jamshedpur, Dhanbad, Gaya, Patna, Muzzafarpur, Gangtok, Jorhat, Dibrugarh, Shillong, Silchar and finally conclude at Agartala, in December 2006.

Elaborating on the initiative, Vivek khanna, director marketing, Aviva said: ”The theme of this road show is the common man’s need for security in view of the unpredictability of life. Although the awareness about the need for Life cover is increasing in India with the industry growing at 32% last fiscal, there is a need to do much more. Through innovative efforts such as these, Aviva aims to educate people about the benefits of a life insurance policy and the kind of security blanket it can provide in times of need”.

Revolving around the theme of a man’s desire to predict the future, the road show is designed to be a crowd puller with several attractions for the masses including exciting gifts for the participants. These include innovative games and contests to predict the personality and future of an individual- "Control mein ya kismet pe" and there are palmists accompanying the float as well. The prediction parameters in the float include temperature, humidity, prices and rainfall amongst others.

In each of the 19 locations across West Bengal, Bihar, Orissa, Assam, Meghalaya and Sikkim, Aviva’s attractive float will touch popular points to reach out to the maximum number of people.
