Mother’s Recipe encourages to give mother’s love to orphans
MUMBAI: Mother’s Day offers all of us an opportunity to reflect on the many children who have never experienced the beautiful feeling called mother’s love and it is probably the most precious gift any child can ask for. However, that’s exactly what 20 million children in India are deprived of.
This Mother’s Day, one of the leading FMCG brands Mother’s Recipe came up with this initiative, urging all the people, especially mothers to share the #TasteofMothersLove in a most unique manner.
The campaign is conceptualised and executed by Mother’s Recipe and Triton Communication with an aim to introduce people to the idea of sharing the most precious emotion of mother’s love with these special kids.
The campaign video captures the mother-child relationship and showcases how essential emotional intimacy is in a child’s life, especially for the ones living in orphanages.
With an objective to connect with a larger set of audience, the campaign is being extensively promoted on various social media platforms using a unique hashtag #TasteofMothersLove. For each comment, shares, tweets / retweets related to the campaign, Mother’s Recipe will contribute a certain amount towards the welfare of these kids in orphanages. Additionally, this year the brand will also be donating a certain percentage of proceeds of online sales till 31 May, fuelling further financial support. The amount garnered by this campaign will be utilised to provide a caring environment, balanced nutritious food, clothing, shelter and education to the children living in special care.
Desai Brothers chief strategy officer Sanjana Desai says, “Having spread the magical and authentic taste of different recipes from mothers across India for close to two decade, we felt the need to touch lives of those who have never experienced a mother’s love. Our Mother’s Day initiative finds resonance and synergies with the brand ethos which aims to give a taste of mother’s love, this time, to the children who need it the most. With this online campaign we are anticipating a greater response and participation from people across all generations. For us it will always be about the number of lives we touch rather than the number of likes we receive. We urge more and more people to come forward to extend their whole-hearted support towards this noble initiative.”
In the last three years, Mother’s Recipe’s Mother’s Day campaign has received phenomenal response from the audience, both on-ground and in the digital space. The campaign received 1500+ participation, 9,38,000+ video views, 7000+ engagement online and 75 million TV viewership on various platforms.

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.
