Mahindra launches Marazzo #ChooseTogetherChooseRight campaign
MUMBAI: Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, part of the $20.7 billion Mahindra Group, today, announced the launch of a new marketing campaign for its premium multi-purpose vehicle Marazzo. Christened #ChooseTogetherChooseRight, the campaign will debut an all-new television commercial (TVC) that promises to build a strong emotional connect with family-car buyers by bringing to life the power of coming together to make important life-choices.
The multimedia campaign will go beyond television to leverage digital and social media and on-ground and dealership activation to engage with consumers and celebrate the choices they make together as a family.
The new Marazzo campaign is based on the insight that the modern Indian family comes together to make big life-choices. This stems from the aspiration to always provide the best for the family in all important aspects of life, including the choice of the new family-car. Marazzo seeks to establish a strong emotional connect with family-car buyers by acknowledging these realities and, indeed, celebrating them in the new campaign.
Speaking on the launch of the new campaign, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd chief of sales & marketing, automotive division Veejay Nakra said, “The insight-based TV commercial aims to amplify the collective role of today’s family in the choice of a new car. It also corroborates on the ever evolving role of women in making family decisions, in this case, choosing Marazzo as the family-car. We are confident that the new campaign will inspire many customers, who are keen to upgrade from a hatchback or a compact sedan, to collectively choose the Marazzo.”
Born of an engineering collaboration between Mahindra Automotive North America (MANA), Detroit and Mahindra Research Valley (MRV) Chennai, the Marazzo has been engineered for excellence to ensure a smooth ride, agile handling, the quietest and fastest cooling cabin in its class and a comfortable cabin with ample space. The Marazzo's streamlined and aerodynamic design is an outcome of the collaboration between Pininfarina, Italy and the Mahindra Design Studio in Mumbai.
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.
