Kalyan Jewellers celebrates Ganesh Chaturthi with new digital ad campaign
Mumbai: Kalyan Jewellers has launched a new digital ad campaign to celebrate the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi, featuring regional brand ambassador for the state of Maharashtra – Pooja Sawant in a distinctive avatar. The campaign video is currently being promoted on Kalyan Jewellers’ digital platforms.
Sawant is seen wearing jewellery from Kalyan Jewellers’ Maharshtrian-heritage inspired jewellery collection – Sankalp. With signature patterns and detailed intricacies, the Sankalp collection truly symbolises quintessential Maharashtrian jewellery traditions through its extensive range of designs.
The ad film captures beautiful moments from Dadi’s delicious homemade ‘modaks’ to the warmth and charm of authentic festive traditions, upholding the brand’s values of trust and togetherness. The festival of Ganesh Chaturthi is extremely popular and widely-celebrated by families across the country. Marking this auspicious occasion, the latest digital ad film by Kalyan Jewellers encapsulates the essence of the festival and the one-of-its-kind spirit associated with it.
Paying ode to the true ‘Vighnaharta’ – Lord Ganesha, the ad film captures intricate details of the traditional rituals and customs practised across households in India. The ad sequence themed around the occasion, features brand ambassador Pooja Sawant wearing a beautifully-crafted choker set from Kalyan Jewellers’ Sankalp collection.

Amazon Ads maps 2026 as AI and streaming rewrite ad playbooks
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.
