SX4 bring men back with latest TVC
MUMBAI: The Maruti Suzuki SX4 has launched its new campaign developed by Lowe Lintas. The television commercial is based on the proposition that SX4 is the car for men who are passionate about driving. It stems from the idea that almost every boy grows up playing with cars and dreams of driving his cars really fast and assertively. The TVC aims to establish that SX4 is a car that lets you live your passion for driving.
Shot at an airstrip in Bengaluru, the car shots were captured by hi-tech camera equipment and an experienced international crew which included an international stunts co-ordinator and the cinematographer. The stunts guy put the new SX4 to some rigorous driving tests both on the tarmac and off the road and helped in capturing the shots used in the TVC. Director Arun Gopalan (of Story-tellers) captured both the story part (boy growing) as well as the car shots. The TVC juxtaposes the manoeuvres of the boy with the car shots.
The TVC depicts a young boy‘s passion for speed and thrill of driving a car which is eventually fulfilled when he gets to drive the all new SX4. The music used is pacey and builds up the TVC well to establish that the new super turbo diesel engine is better than its previous versions.
Maruti Suzuki Industries marketing GM Sanjeev Handa said, “The new SX4, has attractive new exterior looks, plush interiors, and exciting features like the touch screen audio cum navigation system and power folding ORVM‘s. It comes with power packed performance and a Super Turbo Diesel engine. The latest TVC demonstrates our absolute commitment towards our positioning, which has let us stand distinctly apart in the segment. The production quality adds sheen to our statement and puts the TVC in a league of its own.”

Joy Personal Care rolls out Ubtan Face Wash TVC with Shah Rukh Khan
New film pairs star power with simple skincare pitch for summer glow
MUMBAI: Joy Personal Care has unveiled a new television commercial for its Ubtan Face Wash, bringing together Shah Rukh Khan and Sanya Malhotra in a light-hearted campaign aimed at simplifying everyday skincare choices.
The film, which marks the product’s television debut, is set in a retail environment where Malhotra is seen navigating a shelf full of options before Khan steps in with his trademark charm to offer a fuss-free solution. The narrative leans on humour and relatability, turning a routine purchase into a playful exchange.
At its core, the campaign promotes the brand’s ubtan-based formulation, which blends traditional ingredients such as turmeric, saffron and sandalwood to address common summer concerns like tanning and dullness. The messaging keeps things simple, positioning the product as an easy addition to daily routines rather than a complicated skincare step.
RSH Global co-founder and chairman Sunil Agarwal said, “As summer sets in and exposure to sun and heat intensifies, skincare concerns like tan and dullness become more pronounced. Consumers today are looking for solutions that deliver visible results while remaining easy to incorporate into daily routines.”
Echoing the consumer-first approach, RSH Global chief marketing officer Poulomi Roy said, “Through this campaign, we have brought that insight to life in a simple and engaging way, showing how Joy Ubtan Face Wash makes traditional skincare easy and effective. Shah Rukh Khan and Sanya Malhotra add relatability and charm, helping the product connect more strongly with audiences.”
Sharing his experience, Shah Rukh Khan said the campaign stood out for its simplicity and everyday appeal, while Sanya Malhotra highlighted the natural chemistry and playful tone of the shoot.
The campaign will be amplified across television, digital and social platforms, signalling a wider push as the brand looks to strengthen its position in the competitive face wash segment.
Part of RSH Global, Joy Personal Care continues to build visibility through celebrity-led campaigns and sports partnerships, including associations with Kolkata Knight Riders, Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Giants.
With familiar faces, a breezy storyline and a focus on everyday concerns, the latest campaign keeps things straightforward. In a crowded skincare aisle, sometimes the easiest answer is also the most effective one.
