Featuring new brand ambassadors Vedang Raina and Rasha Thadani, the campaign embraces the spirit of #ComeAsYouAre, celebrating individuality and self-expression, combined with the collective jubilation of Holi – a festival that epitomizes hues of togetherness and joy. Crocs, with its iconic Classic Clog and Jibbitz charms, becomes the canvas for this expression, embodying the very spirit of the festival.

    Conceptualized and produced by Supari Studios, the campaign film features Vedang and Rasha in a spirited celebration. From friendly excitement to spontaneous dance-offs, the film seamlessly highlights the functionality and style of Crocs as the perfect accessory for a festival like Holi. Amidst a joyous montage of thandai, jalebis, and festive revelry, the video concludes with Crocs adorned in Holi colours, symbolizing the aftermath, as Rasha, Vedang, and their friends relax. Crocs inaugural Indian Holi campaign underlines the continuous brand effort to grow its cultural relevance in the country.

    Commenting on the vision behind Crocs’ new campaign,  Crocs vice president and general manager, India, Middle East and Africa Sumit Dhingra said, “We are elated to launch our latest thematic campaign amidst the vibrant festivities of Holi. Holi, being deeply cherished by Indians, embodies the values of colour, vibrancy, and togetherness, perfectly aligning with Crocs’ ethos. Our campaign, with Vedang Raina and Rasha Thadani, is an integral part of creating a connection to our consumers in India and we sincerely hope it strikes a chord with those who believe in self-expression and painting their own canvases with joy.”

    Rasha Thadani too expressed her excitement around the film, saying, “Holi has always been close to my heart for many reasons and the memories associated with it are always joyful. Being on set for this video has been both a personal and professional joy. Vedang and I had an absolute blast and it felt like I had gone back to my childhood, especially with the Jibbitz, it felt like I was a 5-year-old in candyland. I am elated that the campaign is finally out for audiences to see, and I hope it reaches the hearts and minds.”

    Adding on, Vedang Raina said about this bright new venture, “Shooting the campaign was an absolute delight and brought in a strong sense of nostalgia for both Rasha and me. I think what’s so special about it is both Holi and Crocs are harmonious in the values of celebration, togetherness and liveliness. The ideologies go hand in glove with each other and I hope the fun we had on set, translates into happiness for the viewers.”

    “This campaign is a celebration of friendship, fun, and festive spirit, highlighting not only the joy of Holi but also the remarkable functionality, durability, and style of Crocs.

  • Gulco splashes organic colours with Holi

    Gulco splashes organic colours with Holi

    Mumbai: As the lockdown has eased and the impending doom of the Covid-19 wave is fading away. Indians are preparing well to welcome the festival of Holi. However, people have become a little conscious about what they eat, wear or apply on their skin! Understanding this behavioural change, Jaipur-based cosmetic startup Gulco has brought out a unique range of organic Holi colours and backed with a digital advertising promotion that is buzzing on social media.

    The tagline of the campaign #KhushiyaanAapkeRangHumare and the effort by Gulco is to ensure that those celebrating the festival of colours have a safe and nature-friendly Holi. According to founder Divya Jain, organic is the new normal! From organic vegetables to organic products and clothes, people are becoming too conscious about organic products.

    Jain says: “Gulco is a conscious celebration brand that aims to provide a unique experience of luxury to joyful moments. Our ethos lies in not just creating but elevating.”

    And on the occasion of Holi, Gulco is offering a 100 percent chemical-free product range that is safe for the environment and users. Jain explains that Gulco’s products are intricately handcrafted with pure, organic, real and indigenous ingredients to make the celebrations more memorable. 

    Jain points out that the campaign is very close to people’s hearts because the past two years have been a dull and dark phase for everyone. What makes this campaign special is the hope to get back to a normal life after continuous struggle and lockdowns for the last two years. 

    People are looking forward to celebrating the ‘Holi’ festival whole-heartedly in 2022. 

    “This hope has been the driving force that birthed Gulco. With this campaign, we make sure our celebrations are more wholesome than ever in every way,” Jain says.

    Post Covid-19 unlock turned out as an opportunity 

    She also reveals the idea behind the campaign! She highlights that the motive was to tap into the emotional connection with the target audience. 

    “After a long pandemic, everyone has been longing to celebrate and rejoice with their loved ones. That was one of the key motives we were targeting to achieve. With the overall rise in the social media consumption and screen time of our target audience, social media awareness of the brand has been our primary concern while launching the brand,” Jain says.

    The aim is to translate memories and emotions into products and experiences. For Holi 2022, we have developed a new range of gulal made from real flowers and enriched with essential oils. A lot of people are sceptical about playing Holi because of the skincare repercussions.

    “All our colours are made from food-grade produce, real flowers and essential oils. Our products are safe for children too,” she says.  

    How Gulco’s spreading awareness around organic

    On being asked how Gulco spread awareness around organic products and what impact they have created so far, Jain says that to spread awareness they are focusing on micro details to create a macro difference. For example, Holi and its colours are too common to even realise that we can go nature friendly here! But we realised it, hence launched this product.

  • Surf Excel’s latest TVC is all about keeping your inner child alive

    Surf Excel’s latest TVC is all about keeping your inner child alive

    Mumbai: Growing older comes with pre-conceived notions of ‘acting your age’ that one has been societally conditioned towards. But it is indeed the moments of letting the inner child out in spontaneous abandon that make our lives fuller. Surf Excel uses this thought in its latest Holi campaign to bolster its ‘Daag Achhe Hain’ brand proposition. The new TVC seeks to inspire us to keep our inner child alive and give into these playful impulses.

    The 360 degree campaign film crafted by Carlos Creatives showcases a heart-warming bond between a little girl and aunt, with the former wanting to include her aunt in the animated festive celebration amongst children. When the little girl insists that her aunt join them, the aunt moves away, saying it’s not her age to play like them. How the child convinces the lady to drop her inhibitions and join in the fun and experience pure child-like glee forms the essence of the ad film.  The film accompanied with the message ‘Jo Rang Bachpan Lautaye, Woh Rang Achhe Hain’ makes us examine the boundaries that keep us away from finding the joy of reliving our childhood.

    “This year we wanted to steer our ‘Daag Achhe Hain’ towards bringing the inner child within each of us to life, and experiencing the joy of child-like abandon,” said Hindustan Unilever home care executive director Prabha Narasimhan, commenting on the launch of the campaign. “With our latest TVC campaign we aim to strike an emotional chord in a slice-of-life context that appeals to every adult. While the context in the film is that of Holi, the message is an all-pervasive one. We hope our consumers connect with it as much as we did while conceptualising it.”

    The campaign goes live across TV and outdoor media from 1 March.

  • Brands encourage us to ‘colour with care’ this Holi

    Brands encourage us to ‘colour with care’ this Holi

    NEW DELHI: The festival of colours is just round the corner but with Covid2019 showing no signs of giving a respite, celebrations look to be muted this year. Last year, it may be recalled, it was not long after Holi that the first nationwide lockdown was imposed on 24 March 2020. A year later things don’t seem to have changed much. After a steady drop in caseloads for some months, infection rates are again on an upward trajectory in several states and union territories, forcing authorities to impose either a complete ban or restrictions on the celebrations. However, as the weather warms up and vaccinations increase, there is a glimmer of hope among the masses that this year will turn out different.

    Given the resilient consumer sentiment, brands too, have drawn up optimistic but cautious promotions for Holi, to make up for subdued festivities. Here’s a look at some Holi campaigns that stood out this year:

    Surf excel – Rang Achhe hain!

    A case in point is Surf Excel’s Holi campaign, which showcases how people can still have fun and be inventive while maintaining social distancing as they play with colours. The daag acche hain brand has released a special campaign for the festival of colours. The film looks to address the emotional need of connecting with loved ones with a heart-warming story featuring a young child wanting to play Holi with an elderly man called Rancho.

    With this new Holi ad, Surf excel celebrates the spirit of togetherness, with the overarching message being how the colours of Holi can bring hearts together, even though there may be physical distance between us. “Jo dilon ko paas laayein, woh rang achhe hain!”

    Parachute urges to #ProtectWhatYouCareFor

    Parachute has come out with a Holi special ad which focuses on how hair needs extra protection during the festival of colours. The ad showcases how the festival can be a war against hair, with the chemical-laden colours and elements. And hence Parachute Advansed Gold Coconut Hair oil to the rescue! Containing pure coconut oil, enriched with vitamin E which strengthens the hair from within it is the perfect antidote to your crowning glory-worries on Holi day, says the ad. “Holi ke iss battlefield mein utarne ke liye apne balon ko rakhein taiyyar Parachute Advansed ke 10x deep protection ke saath.”

    Kamdhenu Paints unveils #ColourWithCare safe Holi

    Kamdhenu paints launched a digital campaign for a safe Holi. The campaign titled “ColourWithCare” went live from 26 March on its social media handles, Facebook and Instagram. The campaign aims to deliver the social message that ‘Holi doesn’t give you any free pass to disrespect women. Play with dignity.’ #ColourWithCare

    Gas-O-Fast Ayurvedic Holi ke rang Gas-O-Fast ke sang

    Holi is also about indulging in a variety of cuisines, sweets and savouries with friends and family. And that is a joy Mankind Pharma’s antacid brand Gas-O-Fast does not want to deprive you of. Traditional Holi cuisines like gujiya, rasmalai, malpua, fritters and many other dishes, while delicious, may lead to gas, acidity and cast a shadow on a happy day.

    With the properties of natural cumin and asafetida variants, Gas-O-Fast claims to fight against acidity, gas and indigestion, that can hijack the occasion of joy and celebration. And there are many culinary highlights of Holi – Brand ambassador Saurabh Shukla says, this Holi, celebrate the love for food with Gas-O-Fast: “Holi ke anek rango aur pakwaano ka maza uthaayein Gas-O-Fast asli jeera ghar layein!”

    The video has been promoted across all social media platforms. The brand has also come up with a contest to engage with their audience. The Facebook-driven contest which will last for five days consists of three different Holi-centric activities.

    Lotus Organics+ & NGO Antarkranti’s Holi Spring Ritu-al box

All proceeds from the sale of Antarkranti products provide livelihood and rehabilitation opportunities to the prisoners, says the brand.

    Livpure Sleep’s Colourful Day, Blissful Night
