Spinny drives the point home with Sachin’s ‘God Promise’ on the move
MUMBAI: When Sachin Tendulkar makes a promise, it’s not just heard, it’s driven home. Quite literally now, as Spinny’s ‘God Promise’ campaign hits the road across India’s metros, shifting gears from screens to the streets. After racking up millions of views online and sparking buzz on Linkedin, Spinny has now rolled out a high-visibility outdoor and transit campaign. Think branded cabs in Delhi, city buses in Chennai, Bengaluru and Pune, and even Mumbai’s iconic double-decker buses all bearing the message of trust, assurance, and India’s most beloved cricketer.
It’s a smart move. Where better to meet your potential car buyer than during their daily commute?
Much like the brand films, the OOH creative is no-nonsense and culturally grounded. The sight of Sachin paired with the words “God Promise” cuts through the usual billboard clutter not with flash, but with familiarity. The campaign strikes an emotional chord with Indians for whom trust, especially while buying or selling a car, is non-negotiable.
In addition to the celebrity endorsement, Spinny has backed its ‘promise’ with action: a first-of-its-kind 3-year Assured+ warranty, a 5-day money-back guarantee, and access to over 10,000 plus verified cars. For sellers, the platform also promises best-price deals putting its money where its messaging is.
From Delhi’s RWA networks to Mumbai’s bus routes and Chennai’s bustling corridors, Spinny’s strategy is simple: be visible where the buying intent brews. Not in boardrooms or banners, but on buses, in traffic jams, and on roads where real decisions are made.
As one campaign insider put it, “Trust isn’t a tagline for us, it’s an everyday delivery.”
With Spinny’s new route, the message is clear: in the great Indian used-car market, faith isn’t optional. It’s a feature.

One Hand Clap acquires Agenseed to enter distribution space
Creative agency expands into full-stack services with strategic buyout.
MUMBAI: One Hand Clap has decided to stop just clapping for great ideas now it wants to make sure they actually travel. The leading new-age creative agency and production house has acquired Agenseed, a seeding and distribution firm, marking its formal entry into the distribution segment. The move is aimed at expanding its role across the entire marketing value chain and unlocking new growth opportunities.
One Hand Clap expects the new distribution vertical to contribute up to 15 per cent of its overall revenues over the next 12–18 months, signalling a clear strategic shift beyond pure creative services.
Agenseed, founded by Monish Hardasani and Akram Malik, will function as the agency’s dedicated distribution arm. This acquisition strengthens One Hand Clap’s position as it aims to become a full-stack creative and distribution company in India’s rapidly growing digital advertising market.
With over 90 million posts shared daily on Instagram and brands allocating 25–35 per cent of their digital budgets to distribution and creator-led reach, amplification has become critical to campaign success. By integrating distribution early into the creative process, the agency hopes to help campaigns gain stronger cultural traction and momentum.
One Hand Clap founder Aakash Shah said, “The future of advertising is not just about executing great ideas, but about placing them intelligently. By owning both storytelling and distribution, we can drive greater impact for brands while opening up new revenue streams.”
Agenseed co-founder Monish Hardasani added, “The future belongs to ideas designed to travel. This partnership allows us to integrate distribution thinking at the source.”
Founded in 2019 by former AIB leaders Aakash Shah and Naveed Manakkodan, One Hand Clap has worked with major brands including Swiggy, Google, Netflix India, Crocs, Duolingo, CRED, Bumble, BGMI and Chetak. The agency also secured investment from Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath last year.
In an increasingly fragmented attention economy, this acquisition reflects a broader industry shift where agencies are building end-to-end capabilities to stay competitive. One Hand Clap is clearly clapping louder and ensuring its ideas now reach much further.
