  • Air India launches new inflight safety video

    Air India launches new inflight safety video

    Mumbai: Air India, India’s leading global airline, has unveiled ‘Safety Mudras’, the airline’s new inflight safety video that seamlessly blends safety instructions with the kaleidoscope of India’s vibrant culture. Developed in collaboration with the visionary trio of Prasoon Joshi of McCann Worldgroup, Shankar Mahadevan and Bharatbala, the video is meticulously crafted to engage passengers and showcase the diversity and depth of the Indian culture, while delivering essential safety information.

    For centuries, Indian classical dance and folk art forms have served as mediums of storytelling and instruction. Air India’s new inflight safety video integrates safety instructions with mudras or dance expressions in eight diverse dance forms – Bharatnatyam, Bihu, Kathak, Kathakali, Mohiniyattam, Odissi, Ghoomar, and Giddha – from around the country. Each featured dance form presents a specific safety instruction, providing vital information in an engaging and culturally immersive manner.

    Air India CEO & MD Campbell Wilson said: “As a flagbearer of the country and a longstanding patron of Indian art and culture, Air India is delighted to present a work of art that is designed to deliver essential safety instructions while showcasing India’s rich cultural diversity to travellers around the world. Our guests will find this inflight safety video to be more immersive and informative, and a warm welcome to India from the moment they step onboard.”

    Featuring music composed by Grammy Award-winning music composer and singer Shankar Mahadevan, the video invites passengers to experience a harmonious fusion of safety and culture. This project, spanning approximately six months, involved creators travelling and capturing the essence of India visually through mesmerizing locations across the length and breadth of the country.

    The safety video will be initially accessible on Air India’s recently introduced A350 aircraft, which is equipped with state-of-the-art inflight entertainment screens. It will be progressively deployed on other aircraft in Air India’s fleet.

    McCann Worldgroup Asia Pacific chairman, McCann Worldgroup India CEO & CCO; and celebrated writer & lyricist Prasoon Joshi:

    “Tasked with the challenge to create a concept that keeps passengers engaged, embody Indian culture and elevate the Air India brand globally, we went to great lengths to poise the essential and the evocative. Indian classical dance forms have one unique dimension – storytelling. And that is what made me think of this idea of using these Indian dance forms to deliver the safety instructions for air travel.

    I am fortunate that this idea found resonance with the fantastic Air India team. And, with a longtime friend and ever brilliant Bharatbala who really made this thought possible. It’s indeed a matter of pride for McCann to work with Air India.”

    Celebrated Indian music composer and singer Shankar Mahadevan:

    “I am very happy I got to create the music for the safety instruction video for Air India. With the new chapter of Air India, their safety instruction video too is pathbreaking and very culturally rich. It is a combination of the various dance forms from India – with the dancers demonstrating the safety briefing actions by way of mudras. The music changes as per the dance form as well. Cheers to Air India for creating something that has never been done before, I am very proud to be a part of this.”

    Indian film director, producer and screenwriter Bharatbala:

    “Having previously worked on projects that showcase the cultural diversity of India, this nuanced opportunity from Air India, enabled me to present our timeless classical and folk-art forms with a contemporary vision. We are an ancient country but with a modern outlook. And for India’s leading global carrier, Air India, to communicate a safety mandate in this manner brought even more responsibility on me to create a spectacle. Filming across the beautiful landscapes and monuments, giving each dance form its place of pride, is truly an enriching experience. This journey enables the passengers to experience India visually, musically, and emotionally on a grand canvas. This film will be etched as one of my special creations and I hope will be an added feather in the rich legacy of Air India. Welcome on board!”

  • Asian Paints launches Apcolite All Protek emulsion with whimsical TVC ‘Bhaag Daag Bhaag

    Asian Paints launches Apcolite All Protek emulsion with whimsical TVC ‘Bhaag Daag Bhaag

    Mumbai: Asian Paints is all set to revolutionise home interiors with its latest offering, Apcolite All Protek emulsion, which promises to keep your walls spotless and beautiful. The company has launched an enchanting and imaginative TV commercial under its campaign “Bhaag Daag Bhaag,” to showcase the exceptional stain-repellent properties of this innovative emulsion.

    Conceptualised by McCann Worldgroup, the commercial opens with a heartwarming scene in a Kerala home. A young girl and her brother are seen making art out of breadcrumbs and ketchup, sitting at their dining table. The brother welcomes the idea of adding an elephant artwork to the Nettipattam decoration on the wall, to which the sister excitedly agrees. They move along, and what follows is pure magic – as the ketchup touches the wall, a hand and foot-like protrusion comes from within the wall in repellence, leaving it spotless! The children are left amazed.

    The creative duo then tests the paint’s prowess with various staining materials like mustard sauce and chocolate sauce, only to witness the same as they had before – the stains are repelled by the wall. The TVC cleverly emphasizes how Apcolite All Protek emulsion turns your worries into beautiful opportunities by keeping your walls pristine. Adding a playful twist to the TVC, the father joins the children’s creative adventure, offering himself as a canvas for their well-intentioned endeavour.

    This delightful ad film effectively showcases the exceptional Lotus Effect Technology of Apcolite All Protek emulsion paint. This technology is the secret behind how the paint on the walls effectively repels stains. It prevents stains from sticking to walls, keeping them clean and looking fresh.

    The TVC also features a catchy refrain, ‘Bhaag Daag Bhaag’, that accentuates the remarkable stain-repellent qualities of Apcolite All Protek, creating a memorable and engaging narrative.

    Speaking on the new TVC, Asian Paints Ltd. MD & CEO Amit Syngle said, “Apcolite All Protek is more than just paint; it’s an innovation that embodies Asian Paints’ commitment to enriching lives. Its revolutionary Lotus Effect Technology not only safeguards walls from stains but enhances overall quality of life. The remarkable stain-repellent capabilities empower consumers to live freely and comfortably in their homes without worrying about stains compromising their beauty. All Protek mirrors our dedication to simplifying lives, enriching living spaces, and nurturing carefree, childlike creativity.”

    McCann India executive director & head of creative Ashish Chakravarty said, “We needed something that establishes a unique and ownable audio-visual device to demonstrate how the Lotus Effect works, but without losing out on emotions. So, for this, along with a fun refrain (Bhaag Daag Bhaag) and the visual effect on the wall, we also developed the character of the father, who lets the children draw an elephant on his T-shirt when he sees that they are unable to draw it on the wall. All this gives more power to the overarching narrative of keeping room for mischief at home, liberates the consumer from the fear of messing up the walls, and makes the commercial more than just a demo. The plot, the story, the music, and the storytelling use local Kerala nuances and insights to drive home the point even more strongly.”

    Asian Paints has a longstanding tradition of delivering high-quality products and innovations, and Apcolite All Protek is no exception. With ‘Bhaag Daag Bhaag,’ Asian Paints encourages homeowners to focus on the beautiful aspects of life and creativity while leaving the worry of stains and dirt to Apcolite All Protek.

  • Anil Agarwal Foundation’s multimedia drive targets child hunger & malnutrition

    Anil Agarwal Foundation’s multimedia drive targets child hunger & malnutrition

    Mumbai: Anil Agarwal Foundation (AAF), the philanthropic arm of  Vedanta Limited has launched a campaign, to address the pressing issues of hunger and malnutrition. Beginning with a personal note from the Chairman, Mr. Anil Agarwal that was released today in print media, the multi-media campaign will include video and digital assets as well. Commencing in the month of September, also observed as the National Nutrition  Month or ‘Poshan Maah’, the campaign with the tagline ‘Agar Bachpan Se Puchha Khaana  Khaya Toh Desh Ka Kal Banaya’ propagates the need to end child hunger and malnutrition,  to nurture the untapped potential amongst the less privileged. The campaign represents the  Foundation’s dedication to building a better future for children and youth in India by ensuring the proper nourishment required for growth and development.  

    Commenting on the campaign launch, Hindustan Zinc Ltd. director, Vedanta  Ltd and chairperson Priya Agarwal Hebbar said, “Stemming from my father’s personal journey and experiences of hunger in his childhood, and his vision of ensuring food security for each child, the launch of this campaign marks the beginning of a movement that will involve and engage every citizen of India so that together we can give our future generations a fair chance to realize their dreams and take India to even greater heights. It’s our inherent belief that there is potential in every child that needs to be nurtured, not just for their sake but for our country’s future. Through Project Nand Ghar, we are positively impacting  children enrolled in our centers yet there’s a lot that needs to be done to help them realize  their true potential and for that, we must begin with the elimination of hunger and lack of  nutrition.”

    The campaign, designed and executed by McCANN Erickson (India), in its initial phase, strives to spread awareness among citizens to end hunger and malnutrition and provide equal opportunities to our future generation for a better tomorrow. With this launch, the Anil Agarwal  Foundation has also revealed its new logo, inspired by a growing sapling symbolising AAF’s philosophy that there is potential in everyone that should be recognised and nurtured to flower to its maturity.  

    McCann Worldgroup  India and chairman, Asia Pacific CEO & CCO Prasoon Joshi said, “When campaigns are born out of true-life experiences, they are authentic and strike a genuine chord with people. This is one such campaign which genuinely reflects a felt truth and a true connection. It also tries to shake one  out of inertia and move society towards positive action.”

    Sensitivity: Internal (C3)

    AAF through its flagship social impact project Nand Ghar, a collaborative project between  Vedanta and the Government of India is contributing to eliminating hunger and malnutrition across the country. It aims to develop and modernise over 29,000 Anganwadis across the country. It has already developed 5,500 Anganwadis into Nand Ghars so far and is impacting the community, especially children and women at the grassroots through holistic development opportunities. Aligned with the Government of India’s POSHAN Abhiyaan and this year’s  Poshan Maah theme of ‘Suposhit Bharat, Sakshar Bharat, Sashakt Bharat’, Nand Ghar has become a true personification of its vision to support health, education, and empowerment along with addressing nutritional needs of all beneficiaries.

    Nutrition forms one of the core focus areas of the Nand Ghar initiative. Considering that poor nutrition hampers growth among children, having long-lasting consequences on learning and productivity, the project supports this crucial need. Nutrition is also central to the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal Two of Zero Hunger. Nand Ghars have been successful in reducing malnourishment among preschool children and include almost 20 per cent fewer children in Severely Acute Malnourished (SAM) and moderately Acute Malnourished (MAM) categories as compared to the national average.  

    Nand Ghars have consistently demonstrated the ability to transform the lives of communities at the grassroots. Earlier this year, AAF launched a nutrition initiative for preschool children to provide multi-millet nutri bars across Anganwadis including Nand Ghars. These bars, rich in protein, fibre, and antioxidants have not only improved the daily nutrient intake of children,  but also boosted cognitive development, and reduced absenteeism in Anganwadis.
