Election-themed Brand Campaigns: Powering Voices, Shaping Futures

As the first phase of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections are held today (April 19) across the country, Adgully takes a look at some of the standout brand campaigns around the elections. 

As opposed to the political advertising by various political parties and candidates, the brand campaigns call out to Indians to cast their votes and strengthen the country and the democratic process. 

Bangur Cement

Bangur Cement’s election campaign, featuring Sunny Deol, combines the brand’s durability with the actor’s influence to convey the message of strength and reliability in building a better future. Sunny Deol’s iconic “Dhai kilo ka haath” finds a humourous mention in the ad. 



Colgate Salt toothpaste

Colgate-Palmolive India’s election-themed campaign focuses on promoting oral hygiene alongside civic responsibility, with a tinge of humour. The ad showcases a political neta scared of sitting on the chair in front of him, much to his party workers' surprise, as he sees it as a dentist chair because of a toothache that he is suffering from. 



Manforce Condoms

Manforce Condoms’ election campaign is a humorous yet thought-provoking initiative that encourages responsible voting and safe sex practices. By combining social responsibility with a light-hearted approach, Manforce Condoms effectively captures the attention of its audience and promotes a positive message during the election season. 



Tinder

Tinder has launched its “Every Single Vote Counts” awareness campaign in India in collaboration with Yuvaa and Mark Your Presence, which seeks to empower and educate young voters to strengthen democracy. Starting April 18 and until May 15, 2024, Tinder users in India will see “Swipe Cards” appearing in-app on Tinder, highlighting the process and tips. Each Swipe Card will direct the relevant Tinder user to the Mark Your Presence website for information on voter registration and how to complete the process.
