The Content Lab launches new campaign – Bandhan
Mumbai: Mumbai-based content studio and digital marketing agency, The Content Lab is all set to launch an exciting new bridal jewellery campaign titled ‘Bandhan’ for the nearly nine-decade-old diamond jewellery brand Kirtilals. The new campaign will throw the spotlight not only on the bride but also on her invaluable support system – her tribe, who play an integral role in her journey towards matrimony be it her mother, sister, grandmothers or other female members.
The ‘Bandhan’ campaign is meticulously crafted & produced by The Content Lab to help Kirtilals expand its presence beyond the South Indian market where it is very well established, while also making its up-to-date jewellery pieces attractive and relevant to young buyers across India. The campaign seeks to redefine traditional narratives by shifting the spotlight from the singular route of the bride being the anchor alone, to the others who are also an integral part of the wedding journey.
As a purveyor of exquisite diamond jewellery, Kirtilals has earned a distinguished reputation for its impeccable craftsmanship and timeless designs and is committed to creating heirloom pieces that capture the essence of love and celebration.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with The Content Lab to unveil this unique bridal jewellery campaign,” said Kirtilals creative director Seema Mehta. “At Kirtilals, we believe that jewellery is more than just adornment – it is a symbol of love, unity, and cherished memories. Through this campaign, we are proud to celebrate not only the bride but also the cherished relationships that form her tribe.”
“We are excited to partner with Kirtilals yet again to bring this campaign to life.” remarked Karthik Krishnan, Executive Creative Director of The Content Lab that has been the creative partner agency for Kirtilals three years in a row. “The bride feels the most joy and ease when she knows her bride tribe has her back. They play a pivotal role in every wedding, and it is our privilege to shine a spotlight on these unsung heroes.”
The bridal jewellery campaign is showcased in the form of a film and captivating visuals that highlight Kirtilals’ exquisite diamond jewellery collections. As part of the campaign,
Kirtilals and The Content Lab will engage with audiences across digital and integrated platforms, inviting them to share their own stories of love and togetherness.
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.
