GoMechanic ropes in Sharman Joshi for its out new digital campaign
Mumbai: GoMechanic has launched a new campaign and roped in Bollywood actor Sharman Joshi as the brand ambassador. The digital marketing campaign #ShaantSharmanShaant is inspired by the everyday anxiety of cars meeting with an accident or being totaled.
The #ShaantSharmanShaant campaign was conceptualised by GoMechanic’s in-house creative team, with the help of production house Bambai Dreams Entertainment.
The ad film highlights various value propositions of GoMechanic, primarily convenience and ease of use, further showcasing its transparent pricing and expert services.
The advertisement begins with Sharman Joshi’s car getting rear-ended and the actor stepping out of the vehicle looking furious. He then asks the person to dance, but the ad film concludes with Sharman dancing with the simpleton and asking him not to stress about these things as it tends to happen all the time. The ad film concludes with the message that GoMechanic offers over 150 expert car services with transparent pricing, thus solving most customers’ anxiety.
GoMechanic brand strategy head Adhiraj Saksena said, “With our efficient and at-your-door services, GoMechanic has aimed to encourage hassle-free car ownership. However, we recognise and understand how any issue in your car is enough to give you anxiety. Therefore, we believe that brands today should communicate relevant solutions to consumers while highlighting the challenges in a compelling story. This advertisement was inspired by regular road rage when people get into unnecessary fights. Through this campaign, we hope to spread the idea that anything and everything, including your car, can be fixed, so a sense of camaraderie could foster harmony.”

RR Kabel expands FMEG portfolio with kitchen appliances and air coolers
Company forays into mixers, cooktops and hand blenders under RR Signature brand.
MUMBAI: RR Kabel has just cooked up something new and it’s not just another wire. The leading wires and cables manufacturer has announced a significant expansion of its Fast-Moving Electrical Goods (FMEG) portfolio by entering the kitchen appliances segment and strengthening its air coolers range under the premium RR Signature brand. The company has introduced Mixer Grinders, Electric Cooktops (both Induction and Infra-Red variants), and Hand Blenders. These products mark RR Kabel’s strategic foray into everyday kitchen essentials, allowing it to reach deeper into Indian households beyond traditional electrical categories.
The Induction and Infra-Red Cooktops are seeing particularly strong demand amid global developments affecting LPG pricing and supply. Consumers are increasingly shifting to electric cooking for its energy efficiency, precise control, and safety features. RR Signature is reinforcing its ‘Aapke Kaam Ki Baat’ promise with best-in-class warranties across the range.
The company also plans to introduce additional kitchen appliance categories in FY26-27. In parallel, it has expanded its Air Cooler portfolio with new Industrial (Semi-Commercial) models featuring higher tank capacities and superior air throw, catering to both commercial users and households seeking powerful cooling during intensifying summers.
RR Kabel executive director Mahhesh Kabra said, “Our expansion into kitchen appliances allows us to connect with consumers at more touchpoints in their daily lives, while our expanded air cooler range addresses the rising need for effective cooling solutions. These launches reflect our continued focus on quality, innovation, and market relevance.”
By stepping into kitchen appliances and enhancing its cooling solutions, RR Kabel is wiring itself more deeply into Indian homes proving that even a cables company knows how to heat things up in the kitchen and keep things cool elsewhere. The move positions the brand for broader growth as it evolves from wires to a more complete home solutions player.
