  • The Pant Project launches humorous ad campaign

    The Pant Project launches humorous ad campaign

    Mumbai: The Pant Project has launched a new ad campaign leveraging humor and memes. By acknowledging that humor is key to male social interactions, the campaign challenges the serious tone often found in menswear marketing.

    The latest campaign features a humorous segment on the Beerbiceps podcast. The ad begins with a close-up of a Beerbiceps lookalike mid-conversation, who is interviewing a pair of pants instead of a traditional guest. He kicks things off with a comical question: “What would you do if an alien stole your zipper?”

    The playful banter continues as he jokes, “You and your underwear spend the whole day together—would you call yourselves ‘chaddi buddies’?” The mood shifts when the pants get up and walk off the set, leaving the host’s laughter to fade awkwardly.

    Turning to the camera, the host says, “So guys, that was a pair of pants by The Pant Project.” The ad concludes with a voiceover: “Some questions are hard to answer, but for the rest, we let our pants talk.”

    “Our latest campaign focuses on one key narrative – No nonsense pants for No Nonsense men but with a humorous twist. We embraced meme marketing to engage with men in a fresh and relatable way. The campaign is a mix of humor, comfort, and authority, using a light-hearted narrative to highlight that what we know best is to make great pants,” said The Pant Project co-founder Dhruv Toshniwal.

    The campaign highlights the brand’s unique blend of humor and style, allowing their custom-fit pants to take center stage.

His engaging music aims to make the message of relief accessible and entertaining while promoting the new focus on body pain relief.

As a music composer, I am dedicated to creating content that not only entertains but also adds value to people’s lives. Music has the power to heal and uplift, just as Saridon provides effective relief from pain. Revamping the classic jingle to ‘Sirf Ek Saridon, Aur Har Dard Se Araam’ represents a perfect fusion of music and wellness, and this partnership beautifully combines both elements to communicate a message of holistic pain relief.”

    Mumbai: This Diwali, Samsung is sending “Diwali ki khushiyaan” with its latest campaign featuring the Samsung AI TV, highlighting the magic of family togetherness in today’s fast-paced world. As families often drift apart into their digital routines, the campaign beautifully illustrates how the Samsung Neo QLED 8K can help revive treasured memories and create new moments, combining nostalgia with the cutting-edge capabilities of AI-powered upscaling and Knox security.  

    The campaign centres on the Samsung AI TV, designed not just for stunning visuals, but for an immersive experience that adapts to the modern lifestyle. The Neo QLED 8K breathes new life into old family videos, showcasing them with unparalleled clarity and detail through AI upscaling technology. Meanwhile, the Knox security feature ensures that data remains protected, enabling a safe and worry-free viewing experience. This makes the Samsung AI TV the ultimate companion for modern families, enhancing their entertainment and connections while elevating Diwali celebrations.  

    Samsung India senior director, Viplesh Dang expressed the brand’s vision: “Samsung AI TV is about stunning visuals and immersive sound. And that’s not all, it’s also about upscaling happiness! This Diwali, let every experience on your TV screen be a celebration of togetherness and the magic of creating new memories with loved ones. We hope our campaign resonates with families, reminding them that the best celebrations happen when they are shared with the ones who matter the most.”  

    The campaign film tells the story of a father eager to celebrate Diwali, only to find his family absorbed in their own activities—his daughter on her phone, his son listening to music, and his wife busy with work. Determined to bring them together, he discovers an old family video of a Diwali ladoo-eating contest and plays it on the Samsung Neo QLED 8K AI TV, where the 8K upscaling brings the memory to life with spectacular detail. The nostalgia sparks joy, and soon the whole family joins in to recreate the contest, rekindling the festive spirit.  

    Cheil India, CCO, Vikash Chemjong stated, “Technology sometimes has been accused of fragmenting a family. So what better time than the festive season to showcase how the right tech can do quite the opposite thing. Because when your TV has AI Upscaling Technology, it can not only turn your old memories into 4K but more than that, it has the power to get people together and light up the festive spark in the family!”  

    Cheil India – Samsung Business, national head, Mandeep Sharma added, “Samsung AI TV is more than just a piece of technology – it’s a perfect bridge that seamlessly connects our past with the present and rekindles the bond of love & togetherness.
