    Sunfeast Dark Fantasy’s spaceship lands in Delhi to fuel young imaginations

    Delhi got a sweet taste of space this week minus the astronaut training. Sunfeast Dark Fantasy’s much-talked-about Fantasy Spaceship touched down at Nehru Planetarium on National Space Day (23 August), inviting city kids to dream bigger and think bolder. Part of the brand’s playful campaign, “Big Fantasies: Give Wings to Your Imagination,” the initiative blended art, tech, and a dash of cosmic curiosity. Children hopped aboard the spaceship actually a tech-powered bus fitted with giant interactive screens that transformed their hand-drawn sketches into dazzling 3D digital characters, right before their eyes.

    The Delhi pitstop comes after successful runs in Bengaluru, Chennai, Mumbai, and Hyderabad. The spaceship will stay in the capital till 16 September, travelling to schools like Ryan International, Modern Academy, Glorious Public School, and Aakash International, turning classrooms into launchpads for creativity.

    India’s youngest astronaut, Jahnavi Dangeti, beamed down as chief guest, reminding kids that imagination isn’t just child’s play, it’s rocket fuel for creativity and problem-solving. “When children are encouraged to dream and create, they nurture skills that help ignite new ideas and overcome challenges,” she said.

    For ITC Foods’ COO for Biscuits & Cakes Cluster Ali Harris Shere the initiative was a perfect fit for the day: “National Space Day at Nehru Planetarium is a perfect way to celebrate young minds and their boundless potential. Every moment shared is a reminder of the incredible creativity that resides within them.”

    With kids sketching, scanning, and sending their ideas soaring into a digital universe, the Fantasy Spaceship is less about reaching the stars and more about sparking the imagination needed to one day get there.

  • Britannia celebrates 100 years with 10 multimedia campaign

    Britannia celebrates 100 years with 10 multimedia campaign

    MUMBAI: Britannia is marking its centenary year with a multi media campaign aimed to connect with the very heterogeneous set of audiences that its brands cater to. The campaign consists of a 10 film TVC series, a long format film for digital and social media, print, radio and OOH.
    100 years is a glorious and a big milestone – one that Britannia has reached because of the trust, love and blessings of its consumers. And the campaign is Britannia’s thank you to a heterogeneous country like India with a concept based on the thought that when you think of someone/something and if it arrives, the instant reaction you have is ‘Tu sau saal jiyega’ (You are going to live to 100 years!), an idiom which is a part of every Indian language.

    The stories in the TV Campaign are about how Britannia has turned 100 only because they’ve always been there for their consumers, just when they were needed most.
    Each clip takes a simple situation and highlights the bond between customer and product. The campaign also builds the symphony of Britannia through its product brands and the various roles that the brand plays in its consumers’ lives.

    Britannia India VP marketing Ali Harris Shere says, “Being part of every Indian household is an honour and this multimedia campaign illustrates our gratitude to the millions of Indians who wake up every day to dip a Britannia biscuit into their chai, and reach out for our products through various parts of the day. The 100-year campaign is our way of acknowledging the secret ingredient of our success – our consumers.”

    Lowe Lintas chairman and CCO Arun Iyer adds, “The brief was to thank the entire country with a simple idea that would seem relatable no matter where you are from. All 10 films are slices of life that have been picked from Britannia’s world. The challenge was to tell a brand’s story of completing 100 years and finding powerful emotions to connect with the consumers. But given how long Britannia has been a part of our lives, we found so many heartfelt moments to tell the story of a brand that has turned 100 because it’s always been there for its consumers. And the huge range of products that Britannia has gave us the room to tell stories across all age groups to make sure that campaign would resonate strongly with everyone.”
    Long format film for the 100 per cent digital natives.

    The digital film is knitted with old-world charm, adding flavours of the past, present and future while capturing a mélange of occasions across the century where a Britannia product has been integral to friendships, celebrations and togetherness.

    From sharing biscuits in the classroom and cheering for a World Cup win to connecting in the selfie era and looking 10 years into the future, the film pays a warm tribute to the journey thus far and looks ahead.

    “We travelled through time in the film, with the set design and camera movement designed to feel like the viewer was journeying through 100 years, revisiting one iconic friendship moment from each decade, until friendship comes back full circle with an interesting futuristic twist. From the parapet wall that fostered close friendships to the social wall that multiplied them, to walls breaking down at home, along with barriers, to make friends of family, this film is an endearing and insightful commentary on friendship even as it’s a journey through its timeline,” mentions JWT Bangalore creative head Priya Shivakumar.
