We welcome you to share your suggestions on the campaigns that most caught your attention and resonated with you.

Best for BABY

Anil Kapoor expresses his worry about the baby’s delicate skin, noting how it can lose moisture after a bath and emphasising the importance of ‘protection pehle din se’. What follows is a fun exchange between Sonam and the baby, who reacts with glee as she remarks, “Moisture gayab ho jaata hai? Mr. India hai kya?” Sonam then goes on to highlight the superiority of Johnson's baby soap, specially formulated with naturally derived glycerin and vitamin E. This gentle formula helps to protect the baby’s natural moisture and healthy skin barrier, making it the perfect choice for newborns from ‘pehle din se’.

ThumbsUpOfficial

The campaign is based on a simple but powerful idea: the motivating effect of a ‘thumbs up’ on athletes which encourages them to give their best performance. Our athletes are dynamic ‘toofans’ themselves, they inspire the nation to trust in their inner strength. But a champion is not made overnight. Every time an athlete deals with a setback or feels a moment of hesitation, a simple thumbs-up from their supporters, coach, friends, and family helps them regain confidence and keep pursuing victory – and this is precisely the essence of the campaign.

Arkade

Arkade Group, a prominent real estate developer in Mumbai, has unveiled its latest campaign titled "Family First." Rooted in their core values, this campaign seeks to highlight the profound inspiration families have provided to Arkade over the years. Since 1986, the company has consistently strived to create landmarks that foster the growth and prosperity of families.

The philosophy of "Family First" stems from the fundamental values that form the bedrock of a family and its unity. Through this campaign, Arkade places utmost importance on nurturing care, affection, bonding, happiness, and trust among its esteemed customer base of over 5000 individuals.
