Campaigns we have run for brands like Cavin Kare
A campaign we planned, booked and photographed for another advertiser in Hair Care, run by the same team and the same process you would work with.
A celebrity-led film for a men’s sunscreen launch
Men’s skincare has to overcome the assumption that the category is not for them, and a familiar face does that faster than an argument. The launch film was shot with Riteish Deshmukh handling the product directly, in a natural setting rather than a studio, and cut for the vertical and short formats where the brand sells. The product stays in frame throughout, so the pack is recognisable at shelf and in a feed.
Keeping the pack in hand for the length of the film means every cutdown, however short, still carries the product identity. Casting a face that reads as ordinary rather than aspirational suited a category asking men to try something for the first time.
Every placement shown was booked directly with the media owner and photographed on the ground by our team.

Personal care advertising in India
Television is the sector’s leading medium, taking 79.9% of ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025. Hindustan Unilever leads on 17.1% of that spend, 6.5% of the sector’s ads run on digital, and 1,008 advertisers were still active in January 2026.
Where the volume moved, quarter by quarter
Ad volume indexed against the opening quarter = 100, inside one collection batch. The 2026 exports are not on the same footing, so the trend stays within the 12 months to September 2025 rather than crossing that boundary.
Down 31% on the opening quarter.
Up 116% on the opening quarter.
Down 63% on the opening quarter.
Ads recorded per quarter across the 12 months to September 2025, indexed to Oct-Dec 24. Media with too few ads to compare are left out.
The preferred medium
Television captured the highest share of the sector’s ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025, at 79.9% of estimated television, print and radio spend. Digital sits outside this split because TAM prices it on a different scale; it is reported by ad count instead.
A plan that skips television buys a smaller share of this category’s voice than the headline spend suggests.
