As the Diwali festivities wind down and people begin preparing for the wedding season and holiday shopping, brands have a prime opportunity to showcase their products and services. Creative and engaging campaigns can enhance interaction and drive sales, making this a pivotal time for marketing innovation.
To showcase how brands are capitalizing on this opportunity, here’s a roundup of this week’s standout campaigns that captured our attention with their relevance and innovation.
Cloudnine Hospitals celebrate Children’s Day
Cloudnine launched a heartwarming campaign that emphasizes the deep bond between doctors and mothers. The campaign highlights the trust that expecting and postnatal mothers place in their doctors—many of whom honor this bond by naming their children after those who supported them throughout their pregnancy journey.
Fear is Good says Godrej Locks
Locks by Godrej unveiled its new campaign, Fear is Good, aimed at encouraging Indian homeowners to view home safety as a proactive responsibility. The campaign aims to replace complacency with vigilance, making home safety a daily priority.
The campaign drives the message that fear, when channelled positively, can empower homeowners to adopt safety as a lifestyle.
The Sleep Company X Sima Taparia
The relationship one has with their mattress is just as important as the one with their life partner. The Sleep Company brings this idea to life in its latest campaign featuring India’s favourite matchmaker, Sima Taparia. With her signature charm and expertise, she brings a fun twist to the world of comfort, matching couples not just with each other, but with their ideal mattresses.
The Sleep Company’s humorous wedding campaign, Peaceful Sleep Mubarakh Ho! emphasizes how comfort and trust are key to a lasting connection, be it with a lifepartner or a mattress.
Naye Nazariye Ki Udaan by HSBC Mutual Fund
On the occasion of Children’s Day, HSBC Mutual Fund unveiled their digital film “Naye Nazariye Ki Udaan”, aiming to raise awareness about the significance of early financial planning and the role of mutual funds in securing a brighter future for children.
It highlights the importance of starting early and staying invested to achieve long-term financial goals. The educational film emphasizes how mutual funds can be a powerful tool to build a strong financial foundation for children, thereby enabling them to pursue their dreams and aspirations.
Swiggy’s IPO campaign
Swiggy marked a momentous milestone with its stock market debut on November 13. To commemorate this achievement, Swiggy released a ad film that encapsulates the brand’s ethos and the decade-long journey that led to this milestone.

The film begins with a series of bells ringing in quick succession, gradually building to a crescendo. The voiceover then states, Ghanti bajate bajate kahan tak pohoch gaye (Look where we’ve reached as a result of ringing so many bells), subtly drawing a parallel between the countless doorbells rung by Swiggy’s delivery executives and the ceremonial bell now ringing at the NSE.
This clever visual metaphor reinforces the company’s growth and celebrates the collective effort that has powered Swiggy’s rise.
