RCB Jilebi was created to address Bengaluru’s unique linguistic mix with empathy rather than escalation. Kannada can feel complex to newcomers, and online jokes often reduced the script to “looking like jilebi.” Instead of reacting defensively, RCB chose to teach the city’s sweetest language in the sweetest way possible. By shaping real jilebis into Kannada letters and pairing them with simple learning cards and player-led tutorials, the team turned a point of tension into a gentle cultural invitation. The activation made Kannada feel accessible, welcoming and joyful. It encouraged locals and newcomers to meet in the middle- through food, curiosity and the shared love of the home team.
