New Chingles TVC does a googlee to create laughter
NEW DELHI: The fifth television commercial in the row of ‘Aaj Lee Kya’ campaign for the mini chewing gums brand ‘Chingles’ of Dharampal Satyapal Group is a call to the audience to break the monotony of their daily rut and infuse a little laughter and light-heartedness in their lives with some harmless pranks on friends, family and colleagues.
The TVC for Chingles established under the flagship of Pass Pass is positioned as anecdote to seriousness and a brand full of life and laughter.
The “Aaj Le Kya” campaign is created by Dentsu Marcom Pvt. Ltd. The campaign embarks by releasing TVC followed by Digital, Radio, BTL activations & POP materials.
Commenting on the campaign, DS Group Sr GM marketing Rajeev Jain said, “We realise the need of humour and fun in today’s debilitating lifestyle. Therefore, the campaign is inspired by the comic legend Charlie-Chaplin and has a retro flavour to it, which is sure to tickle some funny bones. The Lee brothers characterized in the campaign bring wind of laughter with their unique appearances and innocent yet hilarious plots.”
He added, “Through this campaign, we are particularly targeting audience between 15 to 24 years and using 360 degree approach to promote the campaign.”
This time the Lee brothers redefine the good old trick to make the guy look like a fool in front of his love interest by a playful prank filled with cuteness and innocence. The film begins with a bright sunny day and Googlee is watering the plants in the garden calling out Julee’s name, who comes out to the balcony, followed by the two of them smiling at each other like modern day Romeo and Juliet. The Lee brothers mischievously watch the love birds and set the action by stepping on the hosepipe cutting down the water supply. When Googlee attempts to check the pipe for the water by looking and blowing into it, there is a sudden water supply into the pipe giving Googlee a big fall and leaves Julee laughing and mocking him. Thus, Unglee & Khujlee pull a fast one on the poor Googlee. The TVC implies the harmless fun, Chingles instigate in your life.

De Beers & GJEPC partner JioStar to promote diamonds in cricket broadcasts
New JioStar tie-up blends sport and style as diamonds shine on and off pitch
MUMBAI: De Beers Group has teamed up with the Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council to bring natural diamonds into India’s cricket broadcasts, marking an unusual crossover between sport and sparkle.
The collaboration, in association with JioStar, will see women anchors adorned with natural diamond jewellery throughout the cricketing season, adding a premium visual layer to studio coverage. From statement necklaces to cocktail rings and stacked bracelets, the idea is to place diamonds squarely in the spotlight of one of India’s most-watched formats.
In a first, the broadcast will also feature a weekly segment titled ‘Real Diamonds of the Week’, celebrating standout cricketing performances while drawing a parallel with the rarity and resilience associated with natural diamonds.
Beyond the studio, the campaign leans into a broader cultural shift. Cricketers Abhishek Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav front the initiative, reflecting a growing acceptance of diamonds as a form of everyday self-expression, including among men.
“India is reimagining its relationship with natural diamonds, and our partnership with JioStar is a celebration of that evolution,” said De Beers Group SVP Shweta Harit. She added that, much like cricket, natural diamonds represent something earned, enduring and rare, now increasingly tied to personal identity rather than just milestone occasions.
Echoing the sentiment, Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council chairman Kirit Bhansali said India is fast evolving from a manufacturing hub into a major consumer market for diamond jewellery. He noted that with India already the world’s second-largest diamond jewellery market and projected to reach Rs 1,500 billion by 2030, the cricket broadcast offers a powerful platform to connect with younger audiences.
The partnership also underscores a wider ambition within the industry to reposition natural diamonds as relevant, contemporary and woven into everyday culture.
From pitch-side drama to studio style, diamonds are stepping off the pedestal and into the mainstream, proving they can play the long game as well as any seasoned cricketer.
