In collaboration with Blackberrys, a renowned menswear brand, WhizCo has introduced a fascinating AR filter named “Cheer for India” tailored for the Cricket World Cup, 2023.
The primary objective behind “Cheer For India” was to deeply resonate with the passionate Indian cricket fanbase, transforming their way of showing support for Team India. Concurrently, the collaboration aimed to establish a formidable brand identity for Blackberrys as the official clothing partner of this highly anticipated sporting event.
WhizCo’s proficient AR Development team dedicated itself to developing an immersive and interactive 4-in-1 AR filter. “Cheer For India” is not merely an Instagram AR filter, but an engaging game that celebrates India’s love for Cricket.

Frame three transforms’ users into press conference stars, holding a trophy and delivering champion speeches into virtual microphones, while the fourth frame adds patriotic flair with the Indian tricolour on users’ faces, perfect for capturing patriotic selfies or sharing heartfelt messages for Team India. The 4-in-1 AR Filter enables users to have an on-field experience and showcase their enthusiasm in a fun and engaging way.
