Entourage Films presents KitKat and Netflix ad campaign
Mumbai: Entourage Films is excited to announce a new ad campaign with the two iconic brands KitKat and Netflix. This creatively scripted collaboration showcases KitKat’s distinctive concept of “breaks” within the engaging world of Netflix.
Director Sharat Katariya, celebrated for his humor and exceptional storytelling, seamlessly blended the world of KitKat and Netflix into an engaging experience for the viewers. Starring Bollywood sensation Ayushmann Khurrana, the film takes viewers on a delightful journey in the Netflix world.
At the heart of the campaign is the theme of taking a break, a concept synonymous with KitKat’s brand identity. As Ayushmann, feels bored with repetitive roles on a movie set, he yearns for a break. The commercial cleverly highlights the idea that just like there’s a KitKat for everyone, there’s a Netflix show or movie for every mood.
Entourage Films executive producer Garima Arora shared: “Working with KitKat, Netflix and Ayushmann Khurrana was a fantastic experience. The set was full of laughter and chocolates, it definitely felt like a big family gathering. Sharat and I were thrilled to be part of this project and we look forward to more collaborations.”
This film shows the exciting potential when two major brands join forces to create something fresh and innovative. This collaboration between KitKat and Netflix is a masterful blend of humor, storytelling, and brand synergy. It invites viewers to pause, enjoy a KitKat, and immerse themselves in the endless entertainment options that Netflix offers. By combining the pleasures of a sweet treat and top-notch entertainment, the campaign creates a compelling message to unwind and enjoy a break.
NATIONAL: Amazon Ads has laid out a sharply tech-led vision for the advertising industry in 2026, arguing that artificial intelligence, streaming TV and creator partnerships will combine to turn brand building into a more precise, performance-driven business.
At the heart of the shift, the company says, is the fusion of AI with Amazon’s vast trove of shopping, browsing and streaming signals, allowing advertisers to move beyond blunt reach metrics to campaigns designed around real customer behaviour.
“The future of advertising is not about reaching more people, but the right people with messages that resonate,” said Amazon Ads India head and vice president Girish Prabhu. “By combining AI with deep customer insights, we help brands move from broadcasting campaigns to having meaningful conversations wherever audiences spend their time.”
One of the biggest changes, according to Amazon Ads, will be the collapse of the wall between media planning and creative development. Retail media, powered by first-party data, is increasingly shaping everything from brand discovery to final purchase, pushing marketers to design campaigns around audience insight rather than internal instinct.
AI is also moving from a support tool to a creative engine. Agentic AI, which automates and accelerates production, is expected to make high-quality creative accessible even to small businesses, compressing weeks of work into hours and giving challengers the ability to compete with larger brands on speed and scale.
Behind the scenes, AI-driven analytics will take on a bigger role in campaign optimisation, identifying patterns, spotting opportunities and recommending actions that would previously have required teams of analysts.
Streaming TV is another big battleground. With India’s video streaming audience now above 600 million and connected TV users at 129.2 million in 2025, advertisers are set to treat streaming not just as a branding channel but as a performance engine, measured increasingly by sales, sign-ups and bookings rather than just reach.
Finally, Amazon Ads sees creators and contextual advertising reshaping how brands tell stories. Creators will act less like influencers and more like long-term partners, while scene-aware ads on streaming platforms will allow brands to insert hyper-relevant offers into the flow of what viewers are watching.
Taken together, Amazon Ads argues, these shifts mark a move towards advertising that is both more human and more measurable, where AI handles the complexity, and creativity does the persuading.
