Wunderman Thompson South Asia releases ‘Word of Moms’ film for Voltas Beko’s dishwashers
NEW DELHI: Voltas Beko’s primary role is to enable people to do more of what they love, with the people they love. Trusted by all moms in India, the home appliances brand has always been celebrated for triggering conversations and offering products that ease the life of mothers in India. With their new film on dishwashers, the brand has once again struck a chord in a fun way! It highlights Voltas Beko’s state-of-the-art dishwasher designed to fulfil the unstated but important requirements of Indian consumers.
The digital film ‘Word of Moms’, conceptualized by Wunderman Thompson South Asia, is inspired by a bunch of friends who are doubling up their responsibilities on the personal and professional front. The film highlights how we trust our friends and loved ones when it comes to finding solutions. In this case, these friends, also multi-tasking as mothers at home, discuss how to wash dishes in the easiest possible way. And this is a question that households across the country seem to be asking as people try to strike a balance between work and the home. The film also depicts how, under the current circumstances, technology has stepped up as an important channel to maintain relationships and also interact with the world outside.
Speaking about the campaign, Voltas Beko marketing head Prasenjit Basu said, “We have witnessed a significant spike in demand for both our table top and full-size Dishwashers in the last two months. It’s interesting to note how consumers are increasingly adopting technology to ease their multitasking lives. Some of the differentiated features like the Dirt Sensor, Aqua Intense and Corner Intense technology which effectively washes heavily soiled utensils, catering to the cooking and food habits of an Indian consumers, has been a huge draw for our consumers.
Commenting on the creative idea, Wunderman Thompson, Delhi, managing partner Joy Chauhan said, “Interestingly, this piece of content for Voltas Beko is nothing short of we eavesdropping on real time conversations and feelings of millions of Indian families. This communication is so real, because each one of us has been in the same boat due to the lockdown. Getting this right meant understanding the exact emotions of our consumer. Something we take a lot of pride in at Wunderman Thompson. Covid-19 will expedite the inclusion of technology in our kitchens and homes. We expect the demand to rise and the momentum to continue and this is just the beginning.”
Interestingly enough, it’s this very technology that made it possible to produce this film under lockdown. Shot on the actors’ own phones with the director calling the shots over video call, it has been a one-of-a-kind experience making this film.
The brand stands for convenience and enabling users to find joy in the everyday, something that was clearly felt as the COVID-19 pandemic forced the world to stay home, especially for our target audience – the urban Indian mom.

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.
