HDFC Life launches new ad campaign
MUMBAI: Private life insurance company, HDFC Life, is launching a new ad campaign to raise awareness about online term insurance plans and the easy mode to buy insurance.
The campaign has been created by Leo Burnett and produced by Code Red films.
The ad campaign will be first launched on youtube.com, specifically targeted at the well-informed, digitally aware users.
HDFC Life’s new ad campaign aims to reach out to about 4 million unique users on youtube who will watch the commercial before the television audiences.
There are five TVCs that trigger the conversation that ensure complete financial security of loved ones forever; one needs to plan ahead – a thought articulated as “Ab mein bhi Sar Utha ke kah sakta hoon… I Love my Family” in a campaign message.
The USP of this campaign is the tag line which maintains the initial core idea of the brand- ‘self respect and financial independence.’ HDFC Life’s new online term insurance plan, Click2Protect, offers the convenience of experiencing a simple, fast, convenient, transparent, and cost-effective way of buying a life insurance plan.
HDFC Life EVP and head, marketing and direct channels Sanjay Tripathy said, “Following the launch of HDFC Life Click2Protect, we have embarked on this new marketing campaign to spread awareness about the importance of an online term plan, the needs they cater to, and how they are relevant to a consumer’s life.”
“The expression ‘I love my family, do you?’ is derived from the insight that for Indians family comes first and they want to secure their family’s current lifestyle, dreams and goals even when they are not around. The entire campaign comprises five films addressing the most important need at different life-stages of the bread earner including securing old parents, marrying and securing one’s spouse, birth of a child, maintaining a comfortable standard of life & managing liabilities like home loan home loan,” he added.
Leo Burnett NCD KV Sridhar said, “The campaign stems from a simple truth – if we love someone then we‘ll ensure that he/she will never have to suffer, after we‘re gone. Since ‘term insurance‘ as a product is designed to protect the family from any financial downfall in case of untimely demise of the policy holder, the above mentioned truth lends itself meaningfully to the creative idea. It is simple – if you really love your family, you will sign up for term insurance, which translates into a man proudly wearing the badge of ‘I love my family‘ and the things he does to ensure that at every stage of life his family is well protected. The campaign also showcases the benefits of term insurance at every stage of life in an engaging manner.”
Apart from television and digital, HDFC plans to take this film to other mediums such as print and OOH.

Hyundai and TVS Motor partner to develop electric three wheelers
Joint development pact targets last mile mobility with localisation push
MUMBAI: Three wheels, one big ambition and a charge towards the future. Hyundai Motor Company and TVS Motor Company have signed a joint development agreement to co-create electric three-wheelers (E3Ws), aiming to crack India’s complex last-mile mobility puzzle. The collaboration moves beyond concept talk into execution mode, building on the E3W prototype first showcased at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025. The goal now is clear, design, develop and commercialise a purpose-built vehicle tailored to Indian roads, riders and realities.
Under the agreement, Hyundai will lead design and co-development, bringing its global R&D muscle and human-centric engineering approach to the table. TVS Motor, meanwhile, will anchor the product on its electric platform, leveraging deep three-wheeler expertise and local market insight. It will also handle manufacturing and sales in India, with an eye on exports down the line.
The timing is strategic. India remains the world’s largest three-wheeler market, where affordability, durability and adaptability often outweigh sheer innovation. The upcoming E3W aims to strike that balance combining advanced technology with practical features such as adaptive ground clearance for monsoon-hit roads, improved thermal management for tropical climates, and flexible interiors suited for passengers, cargo or emergency use.
A key pillar of the partnership is localisation. Major components will be sourced and manufactured within India, a move expected to strengthen the domestic supply chain, create jobs, lower costs and improve after-sales support.
The shift from prototype to production will involve rigorous testing, certification and refinement to meet regulatory standards and consumer expectations. Dedicated cross-functional teams from both companies are already in place to accelerate timelines.
At a broader level, the tie-up reflects a growing trend in mobility, global players partnering with local specialists to navigate emerging markets. For Hyundai and TVS, the bet is that combining scale with street-level insight could unlock a new chapter in sustainable urban transport, one that runs not just on electricity, but on relevance.
