Noise launches Made of Noise campaign
Mumbai: Noise, a connected lifestyle brand, released its latest brand campaign, “Made of Noise”, featuring its brand ambassadors and India’s youth icons, Virat Kohli, and Taapsee Pannu. As Noise celebrates a decade of innovation and leadership in the smart wearables industry this year, this campaign marks a significant elevation in the brand’s narrative, emphasizing the power of embracing outside voices too, to positively influence our journeys and propel us toward success while listening to our voices. Whether it is cheers, criticism, opinions, or feedback, the campaign focuses on how these external noises also shape an individual, making them stronger, more resilient, and ultimately more formidable.
Over the past 10 years, Noise has carved a niche for itself on the global stage, guided by the belief in “listening to the noise within” while eliminating the external one. This inner voice has driven the brand’s relentless innovation and pursuit of excellence. Now, with “Made of Noise,” Noise is elevating its narrative to also recognize the power of external voices. The campaign emphasizes that the interplay between internal and external noise is essential to personal growth, shaping who we are and what we achieve.
In a world constantly buzzing with sounds, from the cheers of supporters to the criticism, every voice plays a crucial role in shaping our journey. Noise recognises these external influences not just as background sounds, but as powerful as the inner voice that moulds our character and navigates us to achieve the unachievable. The “Made of Noise” campaign celebrates the idea that we are all made by the sounds that surround us—every voice, positive or negative, contributes to our development and drives us toward success.
Conceptualised in-house, the campaign spotlights its brand ambassadors, who are showcased resonating their journey with the new brand message. While they echo the belief of “Listening to the Noise Within” to mark their success, at the same time, they have embraced external voices of encouragement and criticism to pave their path for relentless growth and newer milestones, truly representing that they are “Made of Noise.” While we often see an individual’s victory, we seldom explore the forces that shape them. Their journeys, marked by resilience and determination, mirror the spirit of millions striving for excellence. With a powerful voiceover by Taapsee Pannu, the film showcases the ambassadors as they navigate the pressure from the outside world and how they harness it to achieve success, creating their noise and a lasting impact in their respective fields.
Commenting on the campaign, Noise co-founder Gaurav Khatri said, “At Noise, we’ve always believed in ‘Listening to our inner Noise.’ Over the past decade, this philosophy has driven us to innovate and lead. But as we celebrate 10 years, we also recognize that external voices play an equally important role in our growth when embraced positively. The ‘Made of Noise’ campaign embodies this philosophy, highlighting how every noise, whether internal or external, can drive us towards excellence. Our Noisemakers – Virat Kohli and Taapsee Pannu are not just ambassadors but epitomize this belief, perfectly reflecting the essence of harnessing every noise to fuel their pursuit of excellence. This campaign is a tribute to everyone who uses the world’s noise to rise above and succeed.”
Through “Made of Noise,” the brand reaffirms its commitment to understanding and connecting with its audience on a deeper level. This campaign aims to inspire every Noisemaker to harness all the noise in their lives as a source of strength and potential, turning it into a driving force for achieving their dreams.

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.
