ITC’s B Natural celebrates the spirit of ‘Indianness’ by launching a new digital campaign
MUMBAI: Adding a little music to the patriotic fervor that engulfed the nation on its 71 Republic Day, India’s own, ITC’s B Natural fruit beverages in collaboration with Alive India, has released a multilingual music video celebrating the power of India and showcasing the diversity of its talent and resources. Through its narrative, B Natural celebrates the idea of ‘One Nation One Music’ and promotes the feeling of ‘Indian-ness’, an attribute, in which the brand takes pride, as it facilitates the same by sourcing 100 per cent Indian fruits, only from Indian farmers to deliver 100 per cent Indian taste to delight Indian consumers with high-quality fruit beverages.
Released on its digital and social media platforms, the emotionally stimulating video, ‘We Are India’, features singers from across the length and breadth of the country, who pay tribute to the nation in 26 different languages. The celebration of India is in line with the ethos of the brand, B Natural, which recognizes the immense contribution of Indian farmers and seeks to empower them by sourcing fruits solely from different parts of the country for its range of beverages.
The video begins with a baritone voiceover outlining the identity of a true Indian, who believes in and celebrates India’s diversity in its true sense. The view spans out taking the viewer through myriad landscapes, heritage, and culture, with each locale representing the land of the artist in the frame. Through their music, the artists pay homage to their homeland. The video juxtaposes Indian fruit farmers from the same regions which further establishes the connection between B Natural Fruit Beverages and the musical narrative while evoking the patriotic fervor and conveying the concept of unity in diversity.
Commenting on the initiative, ITC Limited chief operating officer dairy and beverages Sanjay Singal said, “This musical ensemble very aptly reflects B Natural’s ethos of celebrating Indianness, an attribute which the brand takes pride evidenced by our proposition as we bring to consumers the fruits of the labor of our Indian farmers through our beverages. We hope this video inspires the feeling of pride and gratitude among the consumers towards our country and help build this ethos.”

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.
