TVS Motor Company unveils new marketing campaign for TVS Jupiter – ‘Dil Ka Mileage’
MUMBAI: TVS Motor Company has unveiled the marketing campaign for their flagship scooter– TVS Jupiter. Titled ‘Dil Ka Mileage’, the campaign debuts a new television commercial film for the brand.
True to TVS Jupiter’s ethos of ‘Zyaada ka Faayda’, the film showcases nuances of people going the extra mile for their loved ones.
‘Dil Ka Mileage’ explores the story of a father, who drops his daughter for her cricket practice astride his TVS Jupiter, and is mindful to handover the safety gear. The frame then moves to a husband, navigating through narrow lanes, to cater to his pregnant wife’s pani puri cravings and ensuring she is comfortable on the way. It also captures a moment from a young man’s life as he waits on a highway to pick up his father arriving on a late-night bus and is rewarded with an expression of delight as the father disembarks.
The film closes with Amitabh Bachchan, the brand philosophy evangelist of the brand say, “Jab apno ki muskurat khushiyo se bhar deti hai dil… toh usse Dil Ka Mileage kehte hai.”
Set amidst the historical and culturally vibrant backdrop of Lucknow, the TVC reaffirms that it is the little things we do for loved ones that go a long way in creating happiness.
Commenting on the ad film, Mr. Aniruddha Haldar, Vice President (Marketing), Scooters, Commuter Motorcycles and Corporate Brand, said, “We have known that mileage has always been the overriding concern for the Indian Commuter. However, we believe this concern is from a strong desire to do more, achieve more, go that extra mile – especially for their loved ones. Hence this concern for mileage is based on the need to clock more and more “Dil Ka Mileage”, through going that extra mile for their loved ones. TVS Jupiter is their preferred ride, not only because of its performance, including mileage, but for sharing the belief in “Dil ka Mileage”. We are confident that our consumers will be increasing their “Dil Ka Mileage” on every ride with their TVS Jupiter.”
“The idea was to elevate the brand from talking about just mileage of the scooter to what the man does with it. Mileage tells how far the scooter would go but Dil Ka Mileage tells you how far would the man go for his near and dear ones. The film celebrates the family man who everyday selflessly does little but important things for his loved ones that make them smile.” said Krishna Mani, Executive Creative Director – South, Dentsu Network Advertising Private Limited

Kate Rouch steps down as OpenAI Chief Marketing Officer
Marketing leader prioritises health after late-stage breast cancer diagnosis.
MUMBAI: When the toughest battle moves from the boardroom to the personal front, even the sharpest minds know it’s time to step back and focus on winning the most important fight of all. Kate Rouch, chief marketing officer at OpenAI, has announced she is stepping down from her role to focus on recovery following a diagnosis of late-stage breast cancer.
In a heartfelt LinkedIn post, Rouch revealed she was diagnosed around a year and a half ago, shortly after taking on the CMO position. Despite undergoing intensive treatment, she continued to lead the company’s marketing function through what she described as one of the most challenging periods of her career.
She explained that while she remained deeply committed to her role and team, she had reached a point where prioritising her health and recovery had become essential. Rouch called the decision difficult, noting it required acknowledging personal limits and shifting priorities. She reflected that the experience had reshaped her understanding of courage not always about pushing harder, but sometimes about stepping back to focus on long-term wellbeing, family and sustainability.
Rouch expressed gratitude to her team and colleagues for their support. She mentioned that Gary will step in to help lead the function and recruit a successor. She plans to support the transition and remains open to returning in a different capacity in the future, depending on her health.
Prior to joining OpenAI, Rouch served as the first chief marketing officer at Coinbase and spent over a decade at Meta, where she was vice president and global head of brand and product marketing.
She also thanked well-wishers for their messages and shared that stories from fellow survivors had a meaningful impact during her treatment journey.
In the high-stakes world of tech marketing, Kate Rouch has always been known for her strategic brilliance. Now, she is showing a different kind of strength, one that reminds us that even the most driven leaders sometimes need to pause, heal, and come back stronger when the time is right. Wishing her a full and steady recovery.
