  • Tata.ev’s ‘Perry Powerful Punch’ award breaks the internet

    Tata.ev’s ‘Perry Powerful Punch’ award breaks the internet

    Mumbai: While the Women’s Premiere League reached great heights in shattering biases in the world of cricket, we saw Ellyse Perry of Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) shatter not only stereotypes about women in the sport, but also the window of the title sponsor’s display car, the TATA.ev.

    Perry’s sixer broke the car’s glass window on 4 March.

    FCB Kinnect & Tata.ev decided to take this moment of brouhaha and turn it into a memorable triumph for the cricketer, by bestowing her with the ‘Perry Powerful Punch’ award – which also carried the date on which she broke the glass.  

    What’s special about this award is that it was carefully crafted with the shattered glass of the very window that Perry broke.  

    The internet was in awe of the gesture by the brand, which made headlines in several sports and other publications.

    Taking to social media, the brand said, “​You did what every kid playing cricket on the streets, dodging parked cars, dreams of doing but never actually dares. Breaking that display car wasn’t just a jaw-dropping moment; it was a sweet, sweet nod to the mischievous joy hidden in the heart of every cricket lover. Cheers to you, the window-breaking warrior of the #TATAWPL 2024!”

    Tata.ev encouraged Perry to never break her spirit for anything, and especially not over broken glass.

    FCB Kinnect national creative director Kartikeya Tiwari said, “Contemporary brands are built as much on unplanned moments, as on planned ones. The WPL is bigger than just a cricket tournament – it’s a celebration of resilience and talent. This incident was the perfect epitome of how women in India are shattering the glass ceiling. We simply wanted to immortalise this by giving Perry her flowers and not taking the genuineness out of this moment.”

  • Tata.EV drives the meaning of true love

    Tata.EV drives the meaning of true love

    Mumbai: FCB Kinnect has conceptualised a Valentine’s Day campaign for Tata.ev, the electric vehicle (EV) unit from the house of Tata Motors. Titled ‘When in love’, the film aims to showcase how genuine love transcends imperfections.

    The film highlights how people in love embrace each other despite their flaws, through a tender tale of acceptance. The protagonist in the film drives around in her partner’s car, snacks inside, gets comfortable with being her messy self and then finally says goodbye by unknowingly slamming the door of the car hard. When the owner of the car, (her partner) reacts to that, he finds the scrunchie she left in his car and hangs on to it.

    The idea behind the film is that although the concept of lovingly caring for one’s car is widely embraced, some opt for a more carefree lifestyle. Nevertheless, we wanted to show how both can harmoniously coexist within the realm of love.

  • HDFC Bank and FCB Kinnect scam to save

    HDFC Bank and FCB Kinnect scam to save

    Mumbai: If something seems too good to be true, it probably isn’t. To highlight this and remind people of the harsh reality of the growing online frauds, HDFC Bank, together with FCB Kinnect decided to ‘scam to save’ with their new campaign EOSS: End of Scam Sale!

    To warn people, who are likely to get swayed by the number of discounts and end-of-season sales they come across, HDFC Bank’s anti-fraud influencer Vigil Aunty upped her game, by morphing herself into the Bollywood actress, Nora Fatehi. With the increasing number of deepfakes shocking the world, they decided to take the audience for a ride.

    Knowing that a lot of people would fall prey to this, Vigil Aunty posed using Nora Fatehi’s

    deepfakes, for a glamorous, but ‘unheard’ fashion brand called ‘Lulumelon’.

    Fatehi’s pictures and videos were plastered around the brand’s Instagram page, showcasing

    unbelievable discounts that had everyone talking about the brand’s EOSS.

    However, when an excited but ignorant user ended up on the brand’s landing page, they got

    a reality check. They were SCAMMED. Sorry, SAVED from being scammed!

    HDFC Bank created a fake brand from scratch and had audiences believe its legitimacy by creating an Instagram page and choosing the brand’s name, making it sound like ‘Lululemon’ – a genuine apparel brand which made it hard for users to spot the difference between the two. They also ran ads targeting people and used AI and Machine Learning to morph Nora’s face on Vigil Aunty.

    What’s special about this campaign is the fact that a reputed brand like HDFC Bank risked its regard temporarily, all to safeguard people from falling prey to scamsters by letting them live through their worst nightmare for a few moments.

    Not forgetting our AI partner, Gan.ai who helped us bring the real Nora to life in the form of Vigil Aunty.

    Acknowledging that scamsters always try to be one step ahead of a smart consumer, HDFC Bank together with FCB Kinnect did scam people, but only to save them!

    The campaign went live on 20 January, starting with the offers on the fictitious brand Lulumelon’s Instagram page. Nora Fatehi revealed the idea behind the campaign in the reveal video which she put up on her Instagram page on January 23.

    FCB Kinnect national creative director Kartikeya Tiwari said, “Discounts are a big part of the Indian psychology, which makes it so easy for AI to give an illusion of something genuine just by throwing a couple of mind-blowing offers around. This coupled with optimism bias, which is the perception that nothing wrong could happen to oneself was what led us to create a convincing fake brand called ‘Lulumelon’ and we hope that it bursts people’s bubble of invincibility. We had a lot of fun getting our creative and media teams to think like that of a scamster.”

    HDFC Bank senior vice president and head of digital acquisition, website, social media and content marketing Jahid Ahmed added, “Many people fall victim to scams because of a false sense of security, believing it could never happen to them. We used deepfakes since they have been rampant in our society of late, with celebrities like Rashmika Mandanna, Sachin Tendulkar, and Alia Bhatt, among others also falling victim to it. Yet, people are still missing the extent to which they can cause real harm to us. Knowing how fraudsters use End of Season Sales as a window to lure shoppers with deals that are too good to be true, we defrauded people, to raise awareness and educate them about real fraud. However, we kept in mind that this must be done responsibly and ethically. To give this initiative a real and impactful meaning, we went a step further by investing time and resources in creating authentic deepfakes using advanced machinery. This allowed us to simulate realistic scenarios and demonstrate the potential risks associated with falling for deceptive practices, ensuring that all red flags can be seen and understood by the public.”

    HDFC Bank group head, CMO, head-direct to consumer business Ravi Santhanam said, “With ‘people’ at the core of our values, we believe in taking initiatives that educate and equip people for their safety. We have gone to great lengths with Vigil Aunty to spread awareness about financial fraud entertainingly, and with ‘End of Scam Sale’, we wanted to challenge people’s optimism bias and show them how susceptible they are to fraud.”

    Our efforts in creating awareness against online fraud were also acknowledged and appreciated by the government.

    Speaking about the campaign, Mayank Jain, scientist-e/director to Govt. of India, digital economy division, Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY), said, “I am happy to see this initiative of HDFC Bank. In my opinion, this will help in disseminating the awareness of public awareness about Deepfakes, and rising negative use cases of AI (Artificial Intelligence) apart from curbing the Cyber Financial frauds.”

    Government of India, I.T.S, assistant director General (AI & DIU), Artificial Intelligence & Digital Intelligence Unit, Department of Telecommunications, Ministry of Communications, Naveen Jakhar added, “I have seen the video and information conveyed through the conversation of Nora Fatehi and Vigil Aunty is so meaningful to the citizens wherein they can easily correlate it to the new age crimes like deep fake, fake videos, fake audios which might be misused in carrying out cyber-crimes and financial frauds also. Sincerely appreciate the efforts of HDFC Bank in thinking out of the box to keep the citizens informed and aware of the subject matter.”

  • TVS Group’s ‘Miss.Represent’ campaign is set to transform the auto industry

    TVS Group’s ‘Miss.Represent’ campaign is set to transform the auto industry

    Mumbai: TVS Group, a pioneering force in the automotive industry, is proud to announce a ground-breaking campaign addressing gender equality within our society. This initiative is born from TVS Group’s unwavering commitment to fostering an inclusive workforce, recognising that diversity enhances creativity, fuels innovation, and propels overall corporate excellence.

    Research studies suggested by Science Magazine and the Fawcett Society have underscored a notable gender disparity within the automotive industry, with a distinct underrepresentation of women in critical roles. When investigating this issue, it was evident that the origins of this inequality can be traced back to early childhood. The images and messages encountered during these formative years play a crucial role in shaping aspirations. Notably, the prevalent use of Occupation Charts in schools predominantly features male figures in esteemed professions, inadvertently conveying that specific careers are primarily reserved for men. This early misrepresentation perpetuates a skewed perception of possibilities among young girls, steering them away from envisioning a future within these fields.

     

     

    The campaign has been devised by FCB Kinnect.

    In response, TVS Group has taken a pioneering step by launching an initiative that addresses this issue at its core, guided by the belief that empowering the girls of today will lead to the emergence of empowered women of tomorrow. TVS Group is actively dismantling the barriers that have historically hindered women’s active participation in the automotive industry by directing efforts towards inspiring young girls. The rationale is straightforward: TVS Group recognises that by nurturing the potential of young girls today, they are fortifying the foundation for a more robust and diverse workforce that will shape the industry’s landscape tomorrow. As a part of this visionary initiative, TVS Group will introduce a comprehensive series of interactive workshops, mentorship programs, and awareness campaigns tailored for schools and educational institutions.
