Adani Wilmar’s #MonsoonWithFortune billboard features a Pakoda-in-the-rain twist
Mumbai: The onset of rain has inspired Adani Wilmar, an FMCG brand, to give an immersive, 3D twist to the newly launched #MonsoonWithFortune campaign. Crafted around its premier edible offering, Fortune Soyabean Oil, synonymous with quality and taste, is all set to welcome the monsoon season with a revolutionary new campaign.
Building on the inherent joy of indulging in pakodas during rainy days, Fortune has installed innovative hoardings across key locations in Lucknow, Kolkata and Pune. These hoardings feature a unique mechanism that transforms an empty plate into a mouthwatering platter of pakodas with the falling of the rains.
The eye-catching, bright yellow-and-green hoarding features an empty plate with the words, ‘Baarish Ka Intezaar’ (waiting for the rains) which instantly changes to ‘Pakode Hain Tayaar’ (pakodas are ready) with the pouring of the rains. It perfectly encapsulates the anticipation and excitement associated with the monsoon. This dynamic, interactive display is sure to garner attention and bring a smile to those passing by the hoarding.
Fortune has also launched a heartwarming TVC to further amplify the monsoon mood, capturing the season’s essence. The TVC, featuring the catchy tagline – ‘Yeh baarish phir se aayi hai, saath apne pakode ka mausam laayi hai’ (this rain has returned, bringing with it the much-loved season of pakodas), focuses on the shared experience of enjoying pakodas made by our mothers during the rainy season.
Adani Wilmar senior vice president of sales and marketing Mukesh Mishra said, “This innovative campaign is our way of celebrating the joy of monsoon and connecting with our consumers on a deeper level. We believe this creative approach will resonate with our audience and reinforce Fortune’s position as a brand that understands and embraces the traditions and flavours of Indian households.”
As part of the campaign, Fortune is offering an irresistible deal: Buy five litres of Fortune Soyabean Oil and get 400 gms of Fortune Besan absolutely free! This special offer is valid for a limited period and is a perfect opportunity to stock up on the essential ingredients for delicious pakodas.
With its innovative hoarding campaign and captivating TVC, Fortune is set to make this monsoon season truly memorable.

Hyphen launches sunscreen campaign featuring Kriti Sanon as SPF Police
Campaign drives SPF habit; Blinkit tie-up enables instant sunscreen delivery.
MUMBAI: No SPF, no mercy Kriti Sanon is out patrolling your skincare routine. Hyphen has rolled out a new campaign film starring its Co-Founder and Chief Customer Officer Kriti Sanon, who steps into a playful alter ego as the brand’s “SPF Police”, turning sunscreen reminders into a full-blown public service announcement with a wink. The campaign kicked off with a cheeky social media tease suggesting Sanon had “stepped down” from her role, sparking chatter online before the brand revealed the twist: she hasn’t gone anywhere, she has simply taken on an additional avatar, one dedicated to ensuring people do not skip sunscreen.
The film leans into humour to drive home a serious point. In a slice-of-life setting, Sanon intercepts a gym-goer about to step out without sunscreen, promptly handing over Hyphen’s ‘All I Need Sunscreen’, which arrives instantly via Blinkit. The message is clear: forgetting SPF is no longer a valid excuse when it can be delivered in minutes.
Beyond the laughs, the campaign taps into a well-known gap in everyday skincare habits. Sunscreen, despite being one of the most recommended steps, is often the most ignored. By gamifying the reminder through an “SPF Police” persona, Hyphen aims to turn a routine into a reflex.
The multi-stage rollout from intrigue-led teasers to the final film has been designed to spark conversation while embedding the brand into daily behaviour. It also spotlights Hyphen’s quick commerce partnership with Blinkit, positioning accessibility as a key enabler of consistency.
Sanon, who remains closely involved in product development and brand strategy, noted that the idea stemmed from a simple insight: skincare works best when it is easy, habitual and hard to ignore. The campaign reflects that philosophy equal parts science, storytelling and a nudge you cannot quite escape.
The film is now live across Hyphen and Blinkit’s digital platforms, with further activations expected to extend the campaign’s reach and perhaps keep the SPF Police on duty a little longer.
