    Mona Singh voices Coto’s new brand film on emotional wellness

    MUMBAI: Coto, India’s leading emotional wellness platform, has released a stirring brand film narrated by actor Mona Singh, urging people to speak up and seek support without fear.

    Drawing from millions of minutes of real conversations on its platform, the film transforms lived struggles into powerful stories. A long-distance partner, a burnt-out parent, a young professional crumbling under expectations, each vignette reflects lives we recognise, but too often ignore.

    Produced with Trigger Happy Entertainment Network, the campaign doesn’t just spotlight problems; it offers pathways forward. “This film gives voice to the invisible battles so many fight while wearing a smile,” said coto, co-founder, Shefali Anurag. “Our mission is clear: to replace silence with presence, stigma with compassion, and isolation with connection.”

    For Mona Singh, lending her voice was more than a gig. It was personal. “Just as I rely on a nutritionist and fitness trainer for my physical health, coto
    supports my emotional wellness, bringing clarity and calm when it matters most,” she said. “The difference between barely surviving and truly thriving often comes down to having the right support at the right moment. That’s why I count on coto’s experts, not as a sign of weakness, but as essential
    tools for peak performance in every aspect of life.”

    With India’s $7 billion wellness market booming, coto is positioning itself not just as a platform but as a cultural force, normalising conversations around mental health, love, and relationships. The brand film is now live across coto’s digital channels, sparking dialogues that aim to travel well beyond the screen into living rooms, workplaces, and communities.

  • Tata’s Trent serves Burnt Toast fresh as fashion for India’s bold youth

    Tata’s Trent serves Burnt Toast fresh as fashion for India’s bold youth

    MUMBAI: Fashion just got toasted and in the best way possible. Tata Group’s Trent Ltd. has launched Burnt Toast, a youth-first fashion label that’s less about fitting in and more about standing out. With its edgy name and vibrant catalogue of apparel, footwear, and accessories, the brand is baking in affordability, creativity, and a dash of rebellion for India’s digital-first generation.

    After making its debut with stores in Bangalore, Thane, and Surat, Burnt Toast is now setting its sights on expanding across more Indian cities. Designed for creators, trendsetters, and the scroll-happy youth, the brand is positioning itself as a community as much as a fashion line, a place where self-expression isn’t optional, it’s the whole point.

    The collection serves up a buffet of playful silhouettes, bold prints, and statement pieces that could just as easily double as wearable art. Whether it’s vibrant tees that pop on Instagram grids or footwear that walks the fine line between comfort and cool, the aesthetic is deliberately unafraid.

    “Burnt Toast is more than just a fashion brand; it is a dynamic lifestyle and a vibrant community crafted to empower India’s expressive youth,” said Trent Ltd managing director P. Venkatesalu. He added that the goal is to make global fashion accessible while fuelling individuality and shared identity.

    With Gen Z and millennials driving India’s fashion market, estimated at over 100 billion dollars, Trent’s youth-focused pivot is as strategic as it is stylish. Burnt Toast joins Trent’s existing retail portfolio which includes Westside and Zudio but carves a niche aimed at energy, confidence, and individuality.

    For a generation allergic to cookie-cutter clothing, Burnt Toast is serving something hotter, crunchier, and unapologetically fresh.

  • The Golden Elixir of Smoke: Hillfort Whisky strikes gold with smoky new campaign

    The Golden Elixir of Smoke: Hillfort Whisky strikes gold with smoky new campaign

    MUMBAI: Raise a glass! Hillfort Whisky has found liquid gold in its latest campaign.

    When the premium spirit joined forces with creative agency Black Cab, the mission was simple yet ambitious: take Hillfort from being just another label on the shelf to a whisky with a story worth savouring.

    Enter “The Golden Elixir of Smoke”, a campaign that promised more than just a drama. It offered discovery, drama, and a dash of heritage. Drawing on imagery of gold, relics, rulers and celebration, the visuals painted Hillfort as a hidden treasure waiting to be unearthed.

    The campaign leaned heavily on visual storytelling, weaving together motifs of gold, relics, rulers and celebration. Seven themes, including “The Discovery,” “The Treasure,” “The Smoky Affair” and “The Celebration”, were used to frame Hillfort’s character as rare, layered and connoisseur-worthy.  

    The results? According to the brand, the campaign reached 1.3 million people, drove over 38,000 engagements and nearly 9,000 link clicks, while also boosting its follower base by 1,600.

    For whisky enthusiasts, it was a smoky revelation. For casual scrollers, it was proof that storytelling still packs a punch in digital marketing. And for Hillfort, it was a golden moment in building a brand legacy that looks set to pour out many more chapters.

    As Black Cab cheekily put it, this isn’t just whisky. Its history, heritage, and a happy ending served neat.

  • Eastern’s new campaign stirs Kerala’s age-old love affair with sambar

    Eastern’s new campaign stirs Kerala’s age-old love affair with sambar

    MUMBAI: Now here’s some food for thought: Eastern, Kerala’s leading spice and masala brand, is stirring the pot with its new campaign “Sambar Poru” (Battle of Sambar). The playful film celebrates the state’s age-old love affair with sambar, a dish that comes in as many variations as Kerala has districts.

    The brand’s consumer research revealed two camps of loyalists: those who swear by the classic balanced version, and those who prefer the punchier kayampodi (asafoetida-heavy) profile. Rather than choosing sides, the brand is embracing both, spotlighting its Sambar Powder and Thani Nadan Sambar Powder.

    The TVC brings this to life through a light-hearted culinary face-off between a mother and daughter, each defending her sambar style. As relatives gather and the son-in-law plays the enthusiastic referee, both sambars win equal love.

    “Kerala’s love for sambar is as nuanced and diverse as the state itself- shaped by tradition and generations of homegrown recipes,” said Girish Nair, CEO of eastern business unit. “This campaign is a tribute to the regional pride and varied choices we see in kitchens across the state.”

    Elango M, vice president of FCB India added, “From the length and breadth of Kerala, there are different types of Sambar! It’s a very versatile dish, so in our campaign, the task was to show that Eastern caters to different preferences. So, we created the ‘Battle of Sambar’ as the creative device [sic].”

    Running from 21 August to 15 September across TV, radio, cinema, digital and on-ground activations, the campaign promises to keep Kerala talking and tasting.
