MG Motors launches its #OurEverydayVignaharta campaign
Mumbai: Morris Garages announced the launch of its new campaign #OurEverydayVignaharta on Ganesh Chaturthi to celebrate the relentless and tirelessly efforts and hard work of our unsung, real, and everyday heroes and to recognize the crucial role played by our traffic police in clearing traffic-related obstacles for us.
Under the campaign, MG created a series of images in a video highlighting our traffic police. These visuals captured them in various scenarios, such as working bravely in heavy rain, navigating through chaotic traffic, and moments of joy captured through their smiles.
To infuse an emotional and festive touch, the video is set to the rhythmic beats of dhol tasha, the traditional drum and cymbal music that resonates with the spirited chant of Ganesh Chaturthi.
Understanding the logistical constraints and recognizing the practical challenges of collaborating with the traffic police directly, the brand has harnessed the power of AI to convey its heartfelt message.
In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, we often turn to Lord Ganpati, the Vignaharta, the remover of obstacles. However, it is often our police force that consistently assists us in overcoming obstacles, especially on the roads.
As we eagerly welcome Lord Ganpati with grand festivities, our traffic police remain on the front lines, diligently managing crowds, ensuring smooth traffic flow, and maintaining security and ensuring our journey is smooth and safe, no matter the obstacles.
This Ganesh Chaturthi, let us celebrate who makes our festivities even more special.
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.
