Orient Electric pays unique tribute to martyrs to mark 70th Independence Day
NEW DELHI: ‘#DoALittleGood’, a tribute video in the honour of martyrs who lost their lives fighting for independence of the country has been launched by Orient Electric to mark India’s 70th Independence Day.
The video is a subtle reminder to the masses that Independence Day is not just a mere public holiday but a day to remember our martyrs who have sacrificed their lives fighting for the country.
Orient Electric is in the form of organising a surprise trip for two identified families over the long weekend. Unaware of the destination, the families are excited with an assumption of going to a holiday destination until they meet a man who directs them to a memorial and introduces them to the families of martyrs.
The video reads a message for viewers ‘A tribute to our martyrs is a tribute to our freedom’, with a voiceover suggesting people to do some good this Independence Day by honouring the real heroes of the country and not just treating it as a holiday.
CREATIVE DETAILS OF THE VIDEO:
Brand: Orient Electric
Brand Head: Anshuman Chakravarty
Advertising agency – Contract Advertising (India) Pvt. Ltd.

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.
