Liberty General Insurance inspires with heartfelt Republic Day brand film
MUMBAI: What does liberty mean to you? Is it a carefree laugh, a bold decision, or the courage to follow your dreams? This Republic Day, Liberty General Insurance brings these interpretations to life in a stirring brand film that explores the essence of freedom through the eyes of everyday Indians. As the nation commemorates its 76 Republic Day, the campaign delivers a poignant reminder: liberty is as personal as it is profound.
The film opens with this simple yet thought-provoking question—”What does Liberty mean to you?”—and seamlessly weaves together the responses of individuals from diverse backgrounds. A child dreams freely, a doctor dedicates herself to saving lives, a retired army officer embodies preparedness, a gen z individual celebrates self-expression, and a common man holds onto timeless values. These authentic moments converge to reflect how liberty shapes lives in myriad ways.
Speaking on the launch, Liberty General Insurance CEO & whole-time director, Parag Ved shared the ethos behind the film, “At Liberty General Insurance, liberty is not just a word; it represents our promise to empower people to live without fear or hesitation. This film is a reflection of the values we stand for—providing our customers with the confidence and peace of mind they need to embrace life’s opportunities. Our aim is to remind everyone that liberty is deeply personal yet collectively significant, and through our reliable services, we strive to honour this belief every day.”
The campaign acts as a tribute to the spirit of independence and aligns seamlessly with Liberty General Insurance’s mission of delivering trust, empowerment, and reliability. Its relatable narrative and heartfelt storytelling leave viewers reflecting on how freedom influences their lives, encouraging them to embrace liberty in their unique ways.
As brands scramble to make an emotional connection during national celebrations, Liberty’s thoughtful approach stands out. By focusing on personal stories that resonate universally, the film moves beyond mere symbolism to truly connect with its audience.
From inspiring confidence to fostering peace of mind, Liberty General Insurance continues to empower individuals through its dependable services. This Republic Day brand film serves as a reminder that freedom is not only the foundation of democracy but also a deeply personal journey.

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.
