With the World Cup being held in India, the stakes are higher than ever and so is the desire to watch the team succeed. 3 Ka Dream channels the raw energy into an anthem that aims to unify India in its relentless dream for a third world cup victory.”

    Conceptualised by Creativeland Asia, ‘3 Ka Dream’ is more than just a campaign; it’s a nationwide movement that invites all of us to unite and dream boldly. To ensure that this powerful message resonates far and wide, adidas has employed a multi-pronged approach and will be leveraging a diverse range of media platforms, including digital, print, radio, and an on-ground retail activation that will give Indian fans a platform to showcase their support. Additionally, the heart-pounding anthem will also be available on all major audio platforms, including Spotify, Jio Saavn and more.

    In celebration of the World Cup being held in India, adidas has modified the recently revealed ODI jersey. Now the three white stripes on the shoulders will be replaced with the tricolour, and the BCCI logo will have two stars representing the 1983 and 2011 ODI victories. While team India will be seen sporting the same on the field during the World Cup matches, the jerseys will also be available for fans in limited numbers. Additionally, to mark the occasion, the brand has launched 2023 pairs of the adidas grand court, a special World Cup edition shoe, where the first two stripes will have 1983 and 2011 printed and for the third stripe an insert with 2023 will be given separately to complete the “3 ka Dream”.

  • Godrej redefines ABCD on Children’s Day

    Godrej redefines ABCD on Children’s Day

    Mumbai: Godrej Group has launched a new campaign for Children’s Day that redefines all 26 letters of English. The new-age ABC song was released on the group’s social media pages.

    Sung in the same tune as the traditional ABC, it makes the learning process easy and catchy. The song aims to help little ones grow and live better, thereby promoting a society and nation that thrive. The song aspires to help raise the children to be genuine, well-aware, and streetwise individuals who learned facts and values early in their lives.

    With a vision of replacing the traditional ABC with the new-age ABC, Godrej Group has tied up with Teach For India for an on-ground partnership. They will be posting the video on their social media handles as well as sharing it with their fellows, who will make videos/reels of them reciting this new ABCD song. Going forward, we will be approaching more schools and the Educational Board of India to include ABC in the pre-school curriculum.

    Speaking on the launch of the new ABC song, Godrej Group executive director and chief brand officer Tanya Dubash said, “It is imperative that children learn and inculcate the right attitudes and habits at a tender age. Since Children’s Day is extra special for us at Godrej, we thought of gifting our kids with a song that will help them become better individuals tomorrow, even as they learn the basics of the alphabet. The new ABC song will therefore be an appropriate introduction to learning for the children of today.”

    Speaking about the partnership, Teach For India CEO and founder trustee Shaheen Mistri added, “At Teach For India, we keep children at the centre of everything that we do. We want every child to reach their truest potential by giving them access to an excellent, reimagined education. With the new-age ABCDs, we can start to sow the seeds of what children can truly imagine for themselves, for others, and for India.”

    Creativeland Asia co-founder and creative vice chairman Anu Joseph said, “With so many things changing around us over the last couple of years, we thought kids should have a new set of things to remember and learn. Therefore, this new-age ABC song.

Food, as something that transcends cultures and generations, has always brought people together,” said Godrej Group executive director and chief brand officer Tanya Dubash. “The campaign highlights how Godrej products are designed incorporating that spirit of togetherness married to convenience.”    

    “We all know that food is the greatest glue of society. And what truly amazed us is the number of Godrej brands we use in our kitchens every single day,” said Creativeland Asia chief creative officer Anu Joseph. “This film is a celebration of all things food made by Godrej, and how the numerous brands of Godrej are helping cook goodness in millions of Indian kitchens every single day.”

  • Godrej Appliances takes forward campaign #LetsStartRight

    Godrej Appliances takes forward campaign #LetsStartRight

    MUMBAI: With its latest Women’s Day campaign, Godrej Appliances fights subtle gender stereotypes by effortlessly marrying the philosophy of ‘Things Made Thoughtfully’ with the hashtag #LetsStartRight.

    The film shows a seemingly progressive household that agrees with the mainstream belief of women empowerment and equal opportunities. The father-in-law of the house admires it even when a positive change is seen happening in the society outside. But when it comes to his own home, unknowingly, the stance is different. A female fighter pilot on TV is lauded, but the daughter-in-law of the house is advised to leave her corporate job and be in what is deemed to be a more ‘female friendly’ profession.

    About the film, Godrej Appliances marketing head Swati Rathi said, “The thought of ‘Lets Start at Home’. #LetsStartRight was born last year during children’s day when we highlighted the stereotype of gender-based roles amongst children taking shape at home. We chose to carry forward the conversation on women’s day. Our latest film showcases how gender stereotypes are sometimes so ingrained in our mindsets that we don’t even realise the bias. This is true of even seemingly progressive families. Children are a critical element of this #LetsStartRight dialogue because they force us to rethink our biases and start afresh. Godrej has always believed in being a responsible brand and playing the role of a change agent for our country and society. We hope this film inspires people to introspect for themselves and change for better.”

    Speaking about the campaign, Creativeland Asia chief creative officer Anu Joseph said, “Godrej Appliances, as a brand, has been at the forefront of social change from the day it launched refrigerators in India more than 6 decades ago. It liberated women from having to cook three meals a day, and therefore being unable to step out to work. Women, even today, continue to face little prejudices at home. Sometimes, these discriminations are veiled. Sometimes, they are even made to sound like a good thing. This film tells a moment of truth story about one such hidden prejudice in a typical Indian home.”

  • Godrej says it’s “All Safe Here” on Republic Day

    Godrej says it’s “All Safe Here” on Republic Day

    MUMBAI: To mark India’s 70th Republic Day, Godrej launched the campaign, “All Safe Here”, featuring a video highlighting Godrej’s contribution to safety and security for the people in the country. The campaign has been conceptualised by Creativeland Asia.

    In a press statement, the brand said, “From securing homes with its unpickable locks to securing workspaces and banks. From helping create beautiful memories in green and safe Godrej homes to keeping germs at bay. From enabling a safe environment for kids at home or at play to fortifying our grounds in an effort to build a Malaria-free future India. From safeguarding the nation by manufacturing key subsystems for BrahMos and other missiles to a commitment towards making the world a lot greener.  Godrej has been continually at it. And will continue innovating constantly, to keep it #AllSafeHere.”

    Speaking about the project, Creativeland Asia chief creative officer Anu Joseph said, “Putting together Godrej’s list of contributions to the nation and how the company touches and safeguards so many million lives every day, is both an enriching and a humbling experience. It’s also poetic in a certain sense. The effort was to say the story in a simple and yet evocative way. That’s what we’ve done.”

    Godrej Group executive director and chief brand officer Tanya Dubash commented, “Godrej’s journey is intertwined with that of our country and we feel passionately about keeping India and our citizens safe. From Goodnight mosquito repellents to critical parts of Brahmos missiles, Godrej has contributed towards providing the nation with products and services that instill a feeling of protection in our consumers. On this Republic day, we reaffirm our commitment towards the nation and will continue innovating and creating products in line with this nation building philosophy.”

    Godrej and Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd. executive director and president Anil Verma said, “At Godrej & Boyce, our mission has always been about enriching the quality of life every day, everywhere and a key element of this is that people feel safe and secure. It is a matter of pride to see so many of our businesses contributing to the wellbeing of Indians in so many different ways; we are truly privileged and blessed to be able to serve our country and our countrymen. On this Republic Day, we would like to renew our commitment to making all residents of India feel safer and, hence, more free than ever before.”

  • Godrej Appliances wants to break gender roles this Children’s Day

    Godrej Appliances wants to break gender roles this Children’s Day

    MUMBAI: This children’s day, Godrej Appliances brings #LetsStartRight, a campaign questioning the prevalent mindsets in the Indian society in terms of set gender roles and emphasising the need to break free early.

    The objective is to highlight an everyday story, where consciously and very often unconsciously, we condition our children with the age-old gender biases. 

    Gender stereotypes are often formed at an early age, in our everyday set ups. Take the kitchen for example which is the birthplace for some awesome food but awful stereotypes, one being that the kitchen is meant for girls.

    Conceptualised by CreativeLand Asia, the campaign is set up in the familiar construct of a home, capturing a simple moment between a grandmother and her grandchildren. It does not rely on histrionics and melodrama but nudges us subtly to rethink.  

    Godrej Appliances head of marketing Swati Rathi says, “Being in the home appliances space allows us to observe behaviour at home including how we shape our children. As our society still grapples with gender stereotypes like women must do the cooking, we felt the problem is best tackled if we start young. Children’s day seemed like a good day to share this point of view. We hope this simple campaign makes people reflect on the small unconscious ways in which we display our biases, reevaluate our ‘soch’ and our actions, and take small corrective steps.“

    CreativeLand Asia chief creative officer Anu Joseph adds, “In this case, the brief made the film. The marketing team was ready with a bold and clear brief. We had to just write a little story around it. A strong insight is a great place to start. Gender inequality and biases are always passed down and a matter of nurture. The kitchen is a great place to start corrective action.”
