Obviously, Facebook. But not just boring videos and photos from the

movie’s promos and trailers, the Facebook campaign has gotten users

creating their own pages, based on the first name of their alphabets, in

the Name Alphabet(dot) one pages.

Live streaming content, quizzes, and bounty hunts that span the

country – the social media is engaging it’s users in real-time

activities in a bi way.

The Facebook strategy also uses the concept of creating privileged

users, with their G.One Squad, a select community of*.G.ONE.* The

official Ra.One page also contains an embedded playlist and a link to

the merchandise store.

made by Indiagames with a development budget of Rs 4.5 crore.

Ra.One didn’t only post trailers on youtube- It bought space on the

world’s biggest video sharing site (youtube.com/raonemovie), loaded with

videos created exclusively for social sharing, SRK’s podcasts and

trailers.

The Ra.One video page features SRK in a VFX-enhanced Youtube video – just watch it – it’s awesome!

Engaging audiences on Google Plus is another first for Bollywood,

even as Shah Rukh Khan has become the first verified Indian celebrity on

Google+

But the Google Plus search didn’t make it easy to find Ra.One, and there’s only the 62 friends.

Yet, there are plans to organize a live video chat with fans in the coming weeks.

MySpace: 54 friends​

the Ra.One soundtrack, free of cost.
