    Bobcard bowls a Mother’s Day googly with Shreyanka and her mum

    MUMBAI: Some deliveries aren’t bowled on the pitch, they come from the heart. In a touching ode to mothers everywhere, Bobcard Limited, the credit card arm of Bank of Baroda, has launched a poignant brand film featuring Indian cricketer Shreyanka Patil and her parents. Timed with Mother’s Day, the film quietly celebrates the small sacrifices and everyday dreams mums put aside and what it means when their children turn around and say, “Now it’s your turn.”

    The narrative is refreshingly candid. No flashy sets, no dramatic voiceovers, just a warm exchange between Shreyanka and her parents, revealing how her mother once gave up a long-awaited trip. With her Bobcard Tiara in hand, Shreyanka decides to give it back, not as a grand gesture, but as a heartfelt tribute.

    The Tiara, Bobcard’s women-centric offering, is designed for exactly these moments. With perks across travel, wellness, dining, and more, it’s a credit card that doubles as a thoughtful sidekick perfect for those looking to celebrate the women who raised them with grace and grit.

    “We grow up with moms who quietly give up so much. This film is a small reminder – it’s our turn to give back. Whether through planning a trip or gifting them their long-deserved ‘me time’, Bobcard is here to help make it unforgettable,” says Bobcard Limited MD & CEO Ravindra Rai.

    Beyond the film, Bobcard has sweetened the occasion with special Mother’s Day offers across MakemyTrip, Paytm, Amazon, Zomato, and more proving that when it comes to celebrating mum, the little things (like a trip or a dinner) can mean the world. Because sometimes, the best gift isn’t just a vacation, it’s validation.
