New advertising video ‘Seekh,’ for HDFC Mutual Fund, has been unveiled by Publicis Worldwide India, an important part of Publicis Groupe India. This imaginative undertaking follows last year’s groundbreaking ‘Zindagi Ke Liye SIP’ campaign. The film’s goal is to level the playing field between sophisticated financial ideas and the average investor by explaining how Systematic Investment Plans (SIP) work to invest in mutual funds.
THE INSPIRATION BEHIND ‘SEEKH’
Embracing the Journey of Early Investments
At its core, ‘Seekh’ transcends the traditional boundaries of advertising, intertwining the simplicity of everyday decisions with the strategic foresight required in financial planning. Through the poignant narrative of a father imparting a crucial life lesson to his son, the film mirrors the fundamental truth that early and thoughtful planning paves the way to success, a principle as applicable to life as it is to SIP investing.
Culturally Rooted Insights on Investing
Oindrila Roy, the Managing Director at Publicis Worldwide India, sheds light on the campaign’s ethos, stating, “At Publicis Worldwide India, we help brands engage their audiences by leveraging powerful human insights. Zindagi Ke Liye SIP is a perfect example of a campaign that is based on a powerful cultural insight that unlocks category growth for mutual funds. Through a series of heart-warming and relatable stories, we want to showcase how SIP can make mutual fund investing rewarding.”
THE VISIONARIES BEHIND THE CAMPAIGN
The campaign owes its resonance and impact to a collective of strategic and creative minds. Led by CEO Paritosh Srivastava and Chief Strategy Officer Snehasis Bose, the initiative was propelled forward by the insights of Managing Director Oindrila Roy, Executive Creative Directors Srijan Shukla, and Pratheeb Ravi, alongside a dedicated team. Directed by Advait Chandan and produced by Chrome Pictures, the film is crafted to connect with a diverse audience across the nation, making its mark on both television and digital platforms.
A UNIVERSAL MESSAGE
Highlighting the film’s authenticity and universal appeal, Executive Creative Directors Srijan Shukla and Pratheeb Ravi remarked, “We, as a society, believe that starting something early is very important and a prerequisite for success. It’s a principle that’s equally true for SIP. This observation forms the premise of our second film for the campaign ‘Zindagi Ke Liye SIP’. The film tells a simple yet poignant story of vulnerability and honesty. The film is authentic and relatable. And like always we have tried to keep the narrative honest,”
