Kotak Life Launches Digital Campaign Highlighting the Importance of ‘Complete’ Life Insurance
Mumbai: Kotak Mahindra Life Insurance Company Ltd (Kotak Life) today announced the launch of their new digital campaign, which highlights the importance of a ‘complete’ life insurance plan. Kotak Life’s #PooraPlan provides complete family protection that not only covers Life but also Critical Illnesses & Disabilities of the insured.
Subhasis Ghosh, Head – Marketing & Group Insurance, Kotak Mahindra Life Insurance Company Ltd, said, “Life insurance is usually purchased with the intent of saving tax and helping family tide over any unpredictable occurrence of death. But what happens in case of a serious illness or disability? It makes the purchased policy cover incomplete. Kotak Life’s #PooraPlan completes the incomplete by going beyond the conventional coverage and providing added benefits that cover disabilities and critical illness.
“#PooraPlan aims at educating people and creating awareness about full coverage vis-à-vis traditional incomplete coverage. Our TG are adults who are 25 years and above, with increased focus on people between the age group of 30 to 45 years. Bollywood actor Vinay Pathak helps capture a serious topic in a light-hearted yet impactful manner urging viewers to be prepared for any tough situation”, added Subhasis Ghosh.
The campaign is conceptualized and executed by creative agency Wunderman Thompson. Steve Priya, Executive Creative Director at Wunderman Thompson, elaborated on the ad film, “Until now, Life insurance as we know it is actually ‘After Life’ insurance. The category is built on taking care of your loved ones, after you’re gone. Death however, is just one of the outcomes. But what happens if you’re critically ill or suffer an accident that leaves you disabled. A tough conversation but one that was necessary. We decided to shake up the category and call any insurance plan that doesn’t cover every eventuality as ‘Aadha Insurance’. Subbu (Vinay Pathak) makes a comeback in a series of logical, practical yet lighthearted commercials and propagates the need for a complete or rather #PooraPlan from Kotak Life Insurance”.

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.
