Birla Opus paints a bold stroke with free repainting ‘Assurance’ plan
MUMBAI: Looks like Birla Opus is ready to brush away all consumer doubts quite literally. Birla Opus Paints, part of Aditya Birla Group’s Grasim Industries, has unveiled its new ‘Birla Opus Assurance’ campaign, a first-of-its-kind pledge in the Indian paint industry that promises to repaint homes free of charge if customers aren’t satisfied within a year.
The one-year repainting warranty covers all four seasons, putting walls through the ultimate weather test. This goes above and beyond the standard product warranty, signalling Birla Opus Paints’ confidence in its advanced formulations and service quality.
Fronting the colourful campaign are brand ambassadors Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandanna, who don quirky avatars across multiple ad films. Adding extra sparkle to the ensemble are Ranveer Shorey, Murali Sharma, Seema Pahwa and Jaaved Jaaferi, each bringing humour and relatability to the brand’s promise. The ads cheekily thank the design and construction community contractors, architects, and dealers whose word-of-mouth recommendations continue to fuel Birla Opus’ growing popularity in the decorative paints market.
Birla Opus Paints CEO Rakshit Hargave said the campaign reflects the brand’s “deep-rooted belief in the exceptional quality and performance of our products”, while Marketing Head Inderpreet Singh called it “a bold statement of confidence” that balances reassurance with humour.
On the creative front, Leo Burnett South Asia’s CCO Sachin Kamble revealed that the films tap into the Indian psyche of “value, trust, and quality service”, with humour used to tackle everyday consumer concerns about durability and finish.
The ‘Birla Opus Assurance’ campaign will run across Hindi and regional languages, backed by a 360° push spanning TV, digital, and print. With India’s decorative paint sector seeing fierce competition, Birla Opus has taken a bold stroke, one that promises to keep consumers covered, rain or shine.

Tanishq launches ‘Lekhinis’ campaign celebrating modern Telugu woman
Olympic medallist P.V. Sindhu features in new film honouring women who author their own stories.
MUMBAI: Tanishq has found the perfect way to sparkle this season by letting the modern Telugu woman write her own glittering chapter. The Titan Company jewellery brand has unveiled its latest campaign, centred on the idea of ‘Lekhinis’ women who are the authors of their own stories. Featuring Olympic medallist P.V. Sindhu as the narrator, the campaign celebrates the evolving identity of women in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, where modern aspirations blend seamlessly with deep-rooted traditions.
The film captures everyday moments that reflect quiet strength and confident individuality. It portrays women who embrace change while staying grounded in their heritage, reimagining traditions with sensitivity rather than rebellion. Conceptualised by Lowe Lintas, the campaign aims to strengthen Tanishq’s emotional connection with regional audiences by honouring women who shape their identities with authenticity.
Titan Company Limited chief marketing officer of Tanishq Pelki Tshering said the campaign is a tribute to women who remain rooted yet redefine their journeys every day. “She has always been at the heart of everything we do our muse, our inspiration,” she noted. “Through our designs and storytelling, we strive to be a lifelong companion in her journey.”
P.V. Sindhu shared that the campaign resonated with her own life. “What drew me to this campaign with Tanishq is its honest celebration of the modern Telugu woman. The story reminded me of my own journey working hard at what I love, with the support of my family and coaches, and growing stronger every step of the way.”
Akshay Sundher, Director at Lowe Lintas, described the making of the film as a beautiful experience, highlighting the emotional hospital scene, Sindhu’s warmth, and strong teamwork behind the project. The music by Madley Blues forms the soul of the film.
Through this initiative, Tanishq continues its tradition of crafting jewellery that mirrors a woman’s identity, celebrates her milestones, and reflects her cultural pride.
In a world of fast-changing roles and traditions, Tanishq has delivered a campaign that shines not through loud statements, but through quiet, confident storytelling much like the women it celebrates.
