Melorra’s Valentine’s campaign urges men to go beyond the traditional gift ideas
MUMBAI: Melorra, India’s fastest growing fine jewellery brand that’s making gold trendy for everyday wear has unveiled its latest Valentine’s Day campaign. Trending as #UpYourGiftingGame across all social media platforms, the campaign urges men to go beyond the traditional roses, teddy bears, and chocolates as gifts. Rather it asks them to celebrate the multifaceted persona of the women they love by gifting them something that will last more than a day!
The film featuring Swasti Kapur, Tamanna Sharma, Noyrika and Shaina shows how women are destroying the same old boring gifts that they get on Valentine’s Day every year. They demand #change and ask men to #UpTheirGame with the gifts they choose. With partner-in-crime Melorra, men can match the unique personality of their loved one by gifting them trendy and lightweight gold jewellery that lasts a lifetime just like their love.
Commenting on the same, Melorra founder and CEO Saroja Yeramilli said, “Love is an emotion that must be celebrated every day. And what better way to say, that you care, than to gift her Melorra’s lightweight and trendy gold jewellery that complements her personality and can be worn daily? Through our Valentine’s Day campaign, that is carefully crafted to connect with the millennial audience, we ask men to think beyond the regular gifts, and as a token of their love, gift her something she can wear every day. Our new collection that features trendy interpretations of heart motifs is inspired by the latest fashion trends and is made for the modern-day women. So replace the #cliched, and #untradition with jewellery that will become her go-to accessories, no matter what she wears.”
Talking about the campaign, Dentsu India Slingshot VP head of business Kunal Dubey and VP digital and marketing solutions Lucky Saini said, ” With this campaign, we wanted to break the communication codes of the category and yet deliver the brand message in a content/entertainment format. A musical treatment along with very dynamic and engaging cinematography helped us deliver a communication piece that’s not just fresh and engaging but also on point when it comes to translating brand strategy of everyday jewellery into creative execution. Initial response in terms of View through Rates is very encouraging and we hope that this campaign will lift both brand and business metrics “.
MUMBAI: In India’s fast-moving payments race, Visa has just swiped in a new leader. The company has named Suresh Sethi as its India country head, marking a key leadership shift as it sharpens its focus on digital payments growth in the market. Sethi steps into the role following his recent exit from Protean eGov Technologies, where he served as chief executive officer. He succeeds Sandeep Ghosh, who has moved on after more than four years at Visa to pursue an external opportunity.
The appointment comes at a time when Visa is doubling down on its expansion strategy across India and the wider region, deepening partnerships and accelerating adoption in an increasingly competitive digital payments ecosystem.
Sethi brings with him a broad, cross-market perspective shaped by decades of experience across corporate banking, retail financial services, mobile money and large-scale government technology initiatives. He began his career at Citigroup, where he spent 14 years working across India, Africa, South America and the United States, focusing on transaction banking services within the corporate bank.
His appointment signals a blend of institutional experience and market familiarity qualities that could prove critical as Visa navigates a landscape where fintech innovation, regulatory evolution and consumer adoption are all accelerating at once.
As digital payments in India continue to scale rapidly, the leadership change underscores a simple reality, in a market where every tap, scan and swipe counts, who leads the charge can matter just as much as the technology itself.
