Speaking on the launch of the campaign Tata AIG General Insurance Co Ltd vice president – marketing and e-business Jayraj Jadhav said, “True to our customer brand speak of ‘think ahead’, we believe that our customers plan well for their perfect vacations. So, this season we went a step ahead of our core offering of providing insurance to instead becoming a part of our customer’s travel journey and help them become ‘The Great Indian Traveller' through a well-planned trip. It addresses two consumer mindsets; those who are unaware of the importance of travel insurance and those who are aware but do not find the need to buy one, thus focusing on educating both the segments about the importance of travel insurance. This content focused campaign takes care of major details of planning a trip right to its itinerary, spanning destination picks to documentation nitty gritty, finding the right hotel, packing hacks, etiquette guide, tipping tips, emergency helplines across the top destinations, to having a ready reckoner of apps to help customers locate the nearest restrooms during their travel, even finding the best vegetarian delights in the farthest corners of Asia, Europe, Australia or America. Just like last year’s messaging, this year too, we followed the route of humorous and witty narratives to convey the essential importance of travel insurance to the Great Indian Traveller.”
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.
