Royal Enfield rolls out ‘art of motorcycling’ S5 with launch of ‘cine-verse’
MUMBAI: Lights, camera… kick-start! Royal Enfield has shifted gears on creativity with the launch of Season 5 of its global platform, ‘art of motorcycling’, this time with a cinematic twist called ‘cine-verse’. The campaign challenges artists across 12 countries to imagine themselves as stars of their own film and condense the story into a striking movie poster with a Royal Enfield taking centre stage.
And in a first, the platform is opening the throttle for a younger crowd with the debut of AOM young talent, a category for creators aged 11–18. These budding artists will share the same stage and spotlight as seasoned professionals, with their work showcased at Motoverse 2025 in Goa.
The jury line-up is nothing short of blockbuster: Harun Robert (Rob) of M.A.D, poster-design maestro Raj Khatri, Colombian street artist Diana Ordóñez, and Indonesian pop-art maverick Muklay. Each guest will not only judge entries but also create their own cine-verse posters, which will be turned into exclusive merchandise.
Last year’s edition drew over 42,000 entries from 12 countries, reaching more than 23 million people worldwide. Season 5 promises to be bigger, bolder and more global than ever, blending cinema, art, and motorcycling’s freewheeling spirit.
Artists can submit digital or hand-drawn works under regular or young talent categories, with winners earning an all-expenses-paid trip to Motoverse 2025, where their creations will take the spotlight at the AOM Arena.

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.
