For the second time the popular Christmas commercial of Coca-Cola has been shot in Bulgaria, even though not with an entirely Bulgarian cast as last year, the company has announced.

The commercial will be aired in more than 90 countries. The Bulgarian audience will first see it on November 21.

Bulgarian actor Ivan Petrushinov has been assigned once again the task to feature in the key role of Santa Claus.

The video's leitmotif is once again a snowball thanks to which Santa Claus brings together in the festive night those who have been apart during the year, the creators of the video said.

This year, the story continues - a lonely young pianist manages to come home for the holidays and a father, under pressure by his professional duties, gets just in time for the Cristmas party of his son.

The music is performed by a duo, which brings together Grammy nominated singer and songwriter Natasha Bedingfield and Bulgarian Music Idol star Toma.

Last year other popular faces in the commercial were weather girl Desi Banova, TV host Dido Machev and other Bulgarian actors and models.
