Havells launches a new fan campaign, urges consumers to #LookUp
Mumbai: Extending its iconic Hawa Badlegi campaign thought, Havells India Limited, a leading Fast-Moving Electrical Goods (FMEG) Company unveils its latest ad campaign for its fan business urging consumers to #LookUp. The new campaign showcases Havells journey of being at the forefront of innovation and delighting consumers. It highlights how the brand has established itself as a brand consumer ‘look up’ to.
Conceptualised and created by Mullen Lintas Delhi, the campaign is a montage representing Havells legacy and stitches different situations where consumers look up to their fans – be it for wide air-throw, premium aesthetic designs, smart sense technology or energy saving.
The brand resonates with the thought that whenever the consumer felt the need to experience something new from their fans, they have looked up to Havells, a brand that has always delivered industry best experience.
Commenting on the campaign, Havells India EVP – Brand Marcom Rohit Kapoor said, “Over the years, we have come a long way in becoming the preferred brand for our customers. The campaign is another step towards creating remarkable storytelling of our brand journey to establish how Havells Fan has played a key role in responding and pre-empting changing needs of evolving customers. We are confident that this new campaign through powerful messaging around ‘Look Up’ will bring alive our brand legacy and reinforce the stature that Havells enjoys in the fan category.”
Talking about the campaign, Havells India VP Saurabh Sinha said, “We are extremely excited and proud as we celebrate the 20-year legacy of our fan business in India. Being a trusted name, Havells enjoys a strong presence in the fan category with its constant progression and focus on driving innovation. From smart sense technology to stunningly designed fans, or BLDC technology, Havells has introduced innovative offerings to enhance customer experience. This campaign gives a unique touch to our product storytelling bringing alive the ‘technology and innovation’ narrative through its core message ‘Look up’.”
Commenting on the creative thought, Mullen Lintas chief creative officer Garima Khandelwal said, “With this campaign, we create a dialogue that builds stature and brings forth the category first innovations the brand has fronted by speaking about its legacy. “Look up” very effortlessly sets Havells as the market leader, and how we have always set newer benchmarks for everyone else to catch up. While energy savings is the core proposition, we wanted to land that to build preference in the consumer’s mind on the back of the credentials we have in the last 2 decades.”
The 360-degree campaign is live and promoted across all mediums – TV, digital, print, outdoor and BTL and retail visibility. It will be aired on major GEC, movie, news, and regional channels across the country.

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.
