Parachute Advansed Aloe Vera campaign puts hair softness at the heart of connection

MUMBAI: Soft hair is getting a softer story. Marico has launched a new campaign for Parachute Advansed Aloe Vera Enriched Coconut Hair Oil that shifts the conversation from product performance to the simple moments of warmth and affection that softness can inspire.

Built around the thought“Baal Itne Soft, Chooye Bina Raha Na Jaaye“, the campaign positions hair softness as more than a grooming benefit, presenting it as a trigger for everyday human connection.

The campaign film stars Abhimanyu Dassani and Monica Chaudhary, who play a couple sharing playful, unscripted moments where irresistibly soft hair naturally becomes part of their interactions. Through these light-hearted exchanges, the brand aims to make softness feel less like a product claim and more like an emotional experience consumers can relate to.

The communication highlights the product’s dual-benefit proposition by combining the nourishment and strength of coconut oil with the conditioning and softening properties of aloe vera. According to the company, the formulation is designed to deliver hair that is strong, healthy and noticeably soft to the touch.

Explaining the strategy behind the campaign, Marico chief marketing officer, India Vikram Karwal said the brand wanted to take the conversation around softness beyond functional performance and place it within the context of everyday life.

He said consumers instinctively recognise and value softness as a sensory experience, making it an effective way to build emotional relevance for the brand. Karwal added that the campaign offers a more nuanced and relatable approach to haircare communication.

Sharing the creative thinking behind the film, WPP president, Team WPP Ajay Menon said the campaign was built on the idea that softness is as much a human emotion as it is a product benefit.

He explained that the film celebrates spontaneous moments of warmth, playfulness and affection by dramatising the instinctive urge to touch soft hair, transforming aloe vera’s functional benefit into an everyday emotional experience.

The campaign will be rolled out through a multi-platform media strategy spanning television, digital video and social media, allowing the brand to reach audiences across multiple touchpoints.

With consumers increasingly responding to emotionally driven storytelling, Marico is betting that haircare can be about more than healthy strands. Through its latest campaign, Parachute Advansed Aloe Vera seeks to make softness feel less like a feature on the bottle and more like a moment people naturally want to share.
