Tata 1mg launches #RiseAgainstDiabetes campaign in association with NDTV
Mumbai: Ahead of the World Diabetes Day, 14 November, India’s largest digital health platform Tata 1mg is launching a video campaign #RiseAgainstDiabetes in association with the leading news channels, NDTV India and NDTV 24×7.
The three-day campaign, which launches on 12 November is built around three vignettes of approx. one minute duration each, with NDTV anchor, content head & chief correspondent, special projects Ambika Singh Kahma. The whole concept of the campaign is to educate people with diabetes or at pre-diabetic stage and their families about taking full control of the disease through lifestyle modifications and adherence to treatment regimen. It urges all viewers to opt for regular health checkups, frequent doctor consultations & adherence to the timely intake of medicines. This helps to detect the disease at an early stage.
The vignettes show Kahma interacting with Tata 1mg vice president – medical affairs Dr. Rajeev Sharma, Medanta the Medicity, Gurgaon chief diabetes educator & nutritionist Chhavi Kohli (also on advisory panel of Tata 1mg), and a Tata 1mg customer Sanjay Agarwal. The host interacts with them to know more about the ways in which one can overcome the disease through early diagnoses, diet and lifestyle changes and regular timely annual health checkups.
Sharma talks about the increasing burden of diabetes in India and how Tata 1mg educates and encourages users to do regular lab tests, routine doctor check-ups, lifestyle modification and adherence to timely medications.
Kohli talks about ‘eating the right way’ which is to nourish the body by taking various nutrients in the right proportion and right time and how Tata 1mg creates authentic and simple-to-follow informative content on social media.
The host interacts with Agarwal who talks about how Tata 1mg has supported him throughout his diabetes journey by delivering medicines on time with efficient home lab test service while sharing practical informative tips on social platforms.
These vignettes will run on NDTV India & NDTV 24X7 for three days starting from 12 November till 14 November.
Said Tata 1mg business head – ePharmacy Prateek Verma, “The #RiseAgainstDiabetes campaign has been designed to improve knowledge of the people about diabetes, a disease that is rapidly spreading in Indian society. It educates them about the complications associated with avoiding or delaying diabetes treatment, as well as the need to control the disease by maintaining the optimum sugar levels in the body. Diabetes can be tackled with a balanced and healthy diet, an active lifestyle, timely prescribed medications, regular health checkups, and planned doctor visits. And now accessing healthcare is just a click away with Tata 1mg which offers a diverse product portfolio for diabetes management. We are quite excited to partner with NDTV for making this campaign widespread among the masses”
Tata 1mg Labs clinical head Dr. Prashant Nag said, “The objective behind the #RiseAgainstDiabetes campaign is to address the growing need for diabetes education and prevention among the audience. In India, one in eleven people suffer from diabetes. According to recent data, one in every 3 samples tested at Tata 1mg labs in the past eight months shows high blood sugar. This indicates high incidence & increased requirement of good diagnostics services for diabetes in our country. Diabetes imposes lifelong demands on people living with the disease and their families. Because people with diabetes do better when they take active control of their own care, it is of paramount importance that they receive ongoing, high-quality diabetes support that is tailored to their needs and delivered by skilled health professionals.”
Verma added, “The Tata 1mg platform has a variety of solutions for diabetic patients. This includes custom lab packages, care plan memberships where members can get rapid delivery, free shipping, extra discounts on prescription medicines etc. With this campaign, we hope to raise greater awareness among patients about the benefits associated with effectively managing the disease and how Tata 1mg is playing a pivotal role in resolving their health concerns by being readily accessible.”
Kahma stated, “We are delighted to partner with Tata 1mg for this important cause. World Diabetes Day is an important day to amplify the message of diabetes control and management, and we are glad to play our part in spreading greater awareness about the disease. Over the years, diabetes has become a major health concern in the country, and through this collaboration, we hope to restore hope in diabetic patients and urge them to take charge and fight this disease with the right guidance and approach.”

Red Ventures president to lead OMD’s largest market as Chrissie Hanson exits
NEW YORK: Omnicom Media has named Bradley Rogers as chief executive officer of OMD Worldwide’s US business, handing him the reins of one of the world’s largest media agency operations. His appointment takes effect on March 23.
Rogers steps into the role with more than 25 years of experience across media, creative services and digital platforms. Over the years, he has held senior leadership roles at global organisations including McCann Worldgroup, Ogilvy, Mindshare and Red Ventures, working across global, regional and market level operations.
His career has also seen him build long standing partnerships with major brands such as IBM, Mastercard, Microsoft and Nestlé.
Announcing the move, Ralph Pardo, chief executive officer of Omnicom Media North America, said Rogers brings a rare mix of business acumen and cross discipline expertise shaped by leadership roles across media, creative services, commerce and consumer platforms.
Pardo noted that Rogers’ entrepreneurial mindset and ability to connect capabilities, teams and ideas makes him well suited to lead OMD as marketing grows more complex and outcome driven.
Rogers succeeds Chrissie Hanson, who is stepping down after four years as chief executive officer of OMD USA. Pardo credited Hanson with strengthening the agency’s market leadership and deepening the value delivered to clients during her tenure.
Before joining OMD, Rogers served as president at Red Ventures, a digital marketing and large scale customer acquisition company recognised by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest growing private companies. Prior to that, he was global president and chief operating officer at MRM, part of McCann Worldgroup, where he oversaw global operations across 16 markets and managed relationships with several of the world’s largest brands.
In his new role, Rogers will lead the US arm of OMD, the largest market within the global media agency network.
Commenting on his appointment, Rogers said that as marketing organisations navigate rapid change, agencies must work closely with clients to understand both the pressures they face and the opportunities ahead. He added that his focus will be on delivering measurable outcomes while unlocking Omnicom Media’s strengths in scale, data, identity, commerce and talent to drive growth for the brands it serves.
