P•TAL Partners with Nakuul Mehta and Jankee Parekh for SuRu Kids Collection
Homegrown metalware brand P•TAL has launched SuRu, a handcrafted Kansa (bronze) dinnerware collection for children, in collaboration with actor Nakuul Mehta and singer Jankee Parekh. Designed for children aged 0 to 7 years, the collection marks the brand’s entry into the children's dining category.
Named The First and Forever Set, the collection is positioned as a long-lasting alternative to conventional children's dinnerware. The range includes handcrafted Kansa bowls and spoons designed to support early feeding experiences while incorporating traditional metal craftsmanship.
Crafted from Kansa, an alloy of copper and tin associated with traditional Ayurvedic practices, the dinnerware is handmade by the Thatheras of Jandiala Guru, Punjab. The artisans are known for preserving a metalcraft tradition recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage.
The company said the collection has been designed with practical features for young children, including lightweight bowls and spoons, a silicone base for stability during meals, rounded edges, and ergonomically designed cutlery suitable for toddlers.
Nakuul Mehta and Jankee Parekh shared, "Becoming parents changes the way you look at everyday objects. You begin to think deeply about what your child touches, grows up with, and eventually remembers. With SuRu, we wanted to create something that felt intentional, safe, and emotionally lasting.
Kansa (Bronze) carries such a beautiful sense of heritage, and the idea that Sufi & Rumi could one day look back at this set as part of their childhood made the collaboration incredibly meaningful for us. SuRu is not just about feeding a child; it’s about creating rituals, memories, and small moments of togetherness that stay with a family forever.“
Aditya Agrawal, Co-Founder, P•TAL said, “At P•TAL, we have always believed that the objects we live with should carry meaning beyond utility. SuRu represents that philosophy in one of its most intimate forms. Collaborating with Nakuul and Jankee felt incredibly organic because the intention behind the product came from a real parental emotion, the desire to give children something enduring in a world filled with disposable consumption. Through the craftsmanship of the Thatheras and the timelessness of Kansa (bronze), SuRu becomes more than a dinner set; it becomes an heirloom designed to hold memory, culture, and care across generations.“
As part of the launch, every SuRu Kids Dinner Set will include a musical card featuring the SuRu Fullaby Mealtime Rhyme, written for the collection and sung by Jankee Parekh. The addition is intended to create a more engaging mealtime experience for children and families.
With SuRu, P•TAL is expanding its portfolio of handcrafted home products while exploring opportunities in the children's segment through products that combine traditional craftsmanship, functionality, and personalization.

Tanishq Unveils New Gold Exchange Campaign with Sachin Tendulkar
Jewellery brand Tanishq has rolled out a new campaign featuring Sachin Tendulkar to showcase its gold exchange programme and underline the transparency involved in the process.
Created by TBWA\Lintas, the television commercial follows Tendulkar through the gold exchange journey at a Tanishq store. The film highlights key stages including gold weighing, purity testing through the Karatmeter, melting of old jewellery, and final valuation.
According to the company, customers can exchange gold purchased from any jeweller, including jewellery with purity starting from 9KT. The programme also covers the exchange of old, damaged, or inherited jewellery against new purchases.
The campaign comes at a time when gold exchange continues to gain traction among consumers seeking to reduce the cost of jewellery purchases, particularly during weddings and family occasions.

At Tanishq, we have built our Gold Exchange process over decades on the pillars of transparency, credibility and customer confidence. As this category becomes more mainstream, we believe the differentiator will not be the availability of exchange, but the trust in the process itself. This campaign reflects the systems, safeguards, and transparency measures that continue to make Tanishq one of India’s most trusted Gold Exchange destinations."
Sachin Tendulkar shared, “In India, gold carries a deep emotional connection, tied to life’s most important moments, especially weddings and family celebrations. Trust and transparency are therefore essential for people to feel confident and comfortable when they buy or exchange gold. Tanishq’s Gold Exchange respects this sentiment and strives to uphold it in every interaction.”
According to Tanishq, more than 36 lakh customers have participated in its gold exchange programme over the years.

AJIO Pushes Fast Fashion Delivery in New Big Bold Sale Campaign
Fashion e-commerce platform AJIO has launched a new campaign for its annual Big Bold Sale, which began on May 27, placing a stronger focus on rapid delivery alongside fashion discounts.
The campaign features Bollywood actor Shraddha Kapoor alongside Ayush Mehra and Niti Taylor. The films follow a vacation planning scenario where a last-minute wardrobe concern is addressed through AJIO’s same-day delivery proposition.
Unlike previous Big Bold Sale campaigns that largely focused on discounts and celebrity-led storytelling, the latest films highlight delivery speed as a key message. The campaign promotes the idea of near-instant fashion access, positioning quick delivery as part of the shopping experience.
The campaign aligns with the recent expansion of AJIO Rush, the platform’s fast-delivery service offering deliveries within four hours in select markets. Initially launched in six cities including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad, the service has now expanded to more than 600 cities.
The move comes as rapid fashion delivery gains traction in India’s e-commerce market, driven by growing demand for convenience and impulse-led shopping.
AJIO faces competition in the segment from players including Myntra, which launched M-Now in late 2024 with 30-minute delivery services before expanding beyond Bengaluru to cities such as Delhi and Mumbai.
Other platforms including Slikk, NEWME, and KNOT have also entered the fast-fashion delivery space as brands increasingly compete on shorter delivery timelines and faster fulfilment models.

Mother’s Recipe has launched a new national campaign for its pickle range alongside a refreshed packaging identity, marking the first major design update for the portfolio since its launch.
The revamp introduces a new visual identity across the brand’s pickle offerings, aimed at reflecting regional flavours and cultural associations linked to pickle-making traditions in India.
According to the company, the redesigned packaging incorporates regional elements such as local language labels, colour palettes inspired by traditional sarees, and visual cues drawn from home kitchens and utensils. All 64 pickle variants will now feature their names in regional languages on the packs.
The campaign has been conceptualised by 82.5 Communications and will be rolled out across television, digital platforms, out-of-home advertising, retail, and on-ground activations. Key markets include Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru, Delhi NCR, and the North East.
Sanjana Desai, Executive Director, Desai Foods said, “For generations, Mother’s Recipe pickles have stood for authenticity, nostalgia, and the unmistakable flavours of mother’s love. As we unveil our refreshed identity, the new campaign celebrates the deeply personal and regional rituals of pickle-making across India — where every mother brings her own love, care, and signature touch to the recipe. Through this campaign, we wanted to capture that rich diversity of authentic regional flavours and bring alive the emotion of ‘Swaad Mamta ka’ that Mother’s Recipe has always represented.”
Vihar Patkar, Group Creative Director, 82.5 communications (WPP Group) shared, “This was a rare opportunity to revisit how the Mother’s Recipe pickle range shows up, both visually and emotionally. The creative thought was to build from a truth that is deeply familiar across India, that while every home may make pickle differently, the love, patience and care behind it remain universal. That gave us a campaign rooted in memory, while the new packaging gave the portfolio a stronger and more contemporary identity in market.”
The company said the refreshed packaging and campaign will be introduced nationally in phases, depending on product availability across markets.

Pee Safe and Smriti Mandhana Promote Menstrual Hygiene Through #PlayInComfort
Pee Safe has launched its #PlayInComfort campaign on the occasion of Menstrual Hygiene Day, partnering with cricketer Smriti Mandhana to encourage young girls to continue participating in sports during menstruation.
The initiative focuses on challenges such as menstrual discomfort, fear of leakage, limited awareness, and inadequate access to menstrual hygiene products, which the brand says often discourage girls from engaging in sports and physical activities.
According to the company, the campaign draws attention to how periods can affect sports participation among adolescent girls and seeks to encourage more open conversations around menstruation within sporting environments.
As part of the initiative, Mandhana has joined the campaign to support awareness around menstrual hygiene and promote confidence among girls during their periods.
The campaign also highlights the importance of access to comfortable and easily available menstrual hygiene products for girls involved in sports and physical activities.
Vikas Bagaria, Founder, Pee Safe said, “Many young girls slowly start drifting away from sports once they begin menstruating, not because they lack talent or ambition, but because periods are still surrounded by silence, discomfort, and weak awareness. With #PlayInComfort, we want to encourage girls to keep chasing the sports they love with confidence as well as comfort. In addition, over the years, Pee Safe has conducted more than 370 dedicated awareness and hygiene sessions across 90+ cities in India as part of our ongoing commitment to make conversations around menstrual health more reachable, better informed, and free from stigma.”
According to the brand, Pee Safe has conducted over 370 menstrual hygiene awareness and education sessions across more than 90 cities in India as part of its broader efforts to improve awareness and reduce stigma around menstrual health.
