Netmeds.com shows that each house has a Dhoni
MUMBAI: Online pharmacy Netmeds.com has launched a new campaign featuring its brand ambassador and former captain of India’s men cricket team MS Dhoni. Conceptualised and created by Publicis India, the TVC revolves around the theme that each person has within them an “inner Mahi” who can rise to the occasion, shoulder responsibilities and look out for the members of the family.
Commenting on the campaign Publicis Capital EVP Suraj Pombra said, “Every once in a while, one is rewarded with perfect pitch conditions: (a) a client like Netmeds.com that’s been leading the e-pharmacy market and delivering to satisfied customers across the country, and (b) a brand ambassador like MS Dhoni whose sense of responsibility doesn’t need any introduction. Our team had to rise to the occasion and fulfil our responsibility with an equally powerful communication platform that exploits these conditions to the maximum. ‘Har Ghar Mein Mahi’ leverages the core ethos of both MSD and Netmeds.com. But most importantly the idea is an ode to the Mahi in every home, those who carry the responsibility of taking care of their ailing loved ones, and Netmeds.com is their ally. The idea is delivered through various media formats in film and static, and we hope to extend and expand it as we move on.”
Netmeds.com founder and CEO Pradeep Dadha said, “Netmeds.com is fully geared to handle the specific needs of patients who are dealing with chronic illnesses. And equally important is the caregiver, the person in the household who is entrusted with the task of managing the medical needs of the ailing family member. This new campaign is based on the fundamental concept of distance caring, showing both the patient and the caregiver, that we deliver quality healthcare solutions across the country.”
Netmeds.com director, sales and marketing Anand Pathak said, “We have kicked off our creative partnership with Publicis India with the launch of ‘Har Ghar Mein Mahi’ campaign. The TVC focusses on how Netmeds.com provides easy access to quality healthcare solutions and captains this responsibility, one family at a time.”
Titled “Har Ghar Mein Mahi”, the ad shows that each of us can take the lead in looking out for our family members. The campaign positions Netmeds.com as both the enabler of caregiving, and the definitive, go-to-destination for home delivery of medicines for chronic illnesses.

Tech2.com returns with AI-driven revamp to guide India’s tech consumers
News18 relaunches legacy tech platform with AI tools and expanded coverage
NEW DELHI: Tech2, one of India’s earliest and most recognisable technology news destinations, is staging a comeback with a fresh, AI-first approach aimed at modern digital consumers.
Originally launched in 2003, Tech2 built a strong following among India’s tech enthusiasts by simplifying complex innovations and guiding purchase decisions. Now, under the umbrella of Network18’s News18, the platform is being reimagined for an era where artificial intelligence is reshaping how users consume and interact with information.
The revamped Tech2 blends AI-powered tools with editorial expertise, aiming to deliver smarter, faster, and more personalised content. While the technology stack gets a significant upgrade, the platform is consciously holding on to its familiar brand identity, creating continuity for long-time users while attracting a new generation.
At its core, the new Tech2 is positioning itself as a decision-making companion for consumers navigating an increasingly complex tech landscape. From gadgets and apps to broader digital ecosystems, the platform plans to widen its editorial scope to reflect how deeply technology now influences everyday life.
A key part of its growth strategy includes expanding into multiple Indian languages, signalling an intent to reach audiences beyond metro cities and tap into the next wave of digital adoption.
The relaunch also strengthens News18’s portfolio of specialised digital properties, which already includes platforms such as CricketNext for cricket coverage, Showsha for entertainment, and Local18 for regional reporting.
With its return, Tech2 is not just revisiting its legacy but attempting to redefine it. In a market flooded with information, the platform’s success will hinge on whether it can turn AI into a genuine utility for users rather than just a buzzword.
