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.

Coverage: these figures reflect the advertising we were able to track across our data sources, a large sample but not every ad placed in India. Treat them as a directional, relative picture, not an absolute or complete record.
