Asian Paints hues India in India Wala Blue
MUMBAI: For millions of Indians, blue isn’t just a colour, it’s a feeling that runs deep. As team India’s women in blue brought home a historic victory, Asian Paints captured the nation’s emotion with a heartfelt print campaign titled “1.4 Billion Hearts. One India Wala Blue.”
The campaign celebrates how the team’s grit, grace, and glory have painted every home with pride, from bustling stadiums to family living rooms. The message “Ab har ghar jeetega” perfectly ties this sporting triumph to the brand’s philosophy of colour, emotion, and connection.
Extending its much-loved Har Ghar Blue campaign, Asian Paints salutes the women in blue for uniting the country through sheer determination and teamwork. The initiative builds on the brand’s deep-rooted association with cricket, from its Smartcare damp proof integrations during the India-England series to its Asia Cup countdown campaign and the empowering “Meri Wali Blue” film celebrating women’s cricket.
“Cricket in India goes far beyond the field, it lives in every home, every conversation, every emotion,” said Asian Paints Ltd. MD & CEO Amit Syngle. “Blue has always been the colour of this shared sentiment, and we’re proud to celebrate this bond through our campaigns. Har Ghar Blue is more than an idea, it’s a feeling that unites the country.”
With “India Wala Blue,” Asian Paints transforms national pride into a hue of unity and joy, a shade that will forever colour India’s heart with victory.

Raj Cooling Systems launches Agreyas appliances brand
Emraan Hashmi named brand ambassador for consumer appliance push.
MUMBAI: A company known for cooling solutions is now heating up its ambitions in the home appliances market. Raj Cooling Systems Pvt. Ltd. has launched a new consumer appliances brand, Agreyas, marking its entry into India’s rapidly expanding home appliances sector valued at more than Rs 1.5 lakh crore. The move represents a strategic diversification for the company, which has traditionally focused on cooling solutions for residential, commercial and industrial applications. Through Agreyas, the firm plans to tap into growing consumer demand for energy efficient and technology driven household appliances.
To build brand visibility, Agreyas has appointed Emraan Hashmi as its brand ambassador. The campaign has been developed under the banner of Zoommantra Productions, with actor and filmmaker Rohit Roy contributing to the creative direction.
The brand’s initial portfolio will include mid premium air conditioners, washing machines, geysers and other white goods designed to cater to modern Indian households seeking efficient and reliable appliances.
Raj Cooling Systems, founder and chairman Kalpesh Ramoliya said the launch aligns with the company’s broader expansion plans.
“The launch of Agreyas is in line with our vision to build a strong presence in India’s consumer electronics and home appliances market. The brand has been developed as a standalone identity to meet the evolving needs of Indian consumers,” he said.
Hashmi said the collaboration comes at a time when Indian buyers are increasingly looking for innovative and functional home solutions.
“I’m looking forward to working with Agreyas at a time when consumers are seeking more innovative and efficient home products. The brand reflects changing consumer behaviour around functionality, innovation and ease of use,” he said.
Raj Cooling Systems plans to invest around 10 million dollars in developing the brand, with an additional 5 million dollars earmarked over the next three to five years for product development and distribution expansion.
Agreyas will follow a multi channel distribution approach, selling through online platforms, retail outlets and dealer networks aimed at both urban and semi urban markets across India.
With the launch, the company is positioning Agreyas as a standalone consumer facing brand while continuing to leverage its existing manufacturing, engineering and research capabilities built through its core cooling solutions business.
