In this phase, we realized that our handwash with its high-performance credentials could play a vital tole in ‘caring for the hands that care so much.’ In bringing alive this vision, our team of Fritz and Jayesh, were so ably partnered by our talented director Afshan, who has captured the heart of this idea beautifully in the film.”

Post the pandemic, the changing needs of an evolving Indian consumer were observed through in-depth consumer interactions backed by digital trends identified by the in-house Consumer Insights Sixth Sense team. While germ protection remained core, the new age Indian consumer now sought benefits beyond protection and had actively started seeking out solutions that were skin friendly, had natural content and cared for their hands. Having been at the forefront of innovative design and disruptive thinking rooted in consumer centricity, it was time for ITC Savlon to redefine the norms once again.
Savlon unveils the new handwash packs as a fitting tribute to hands that care. Conceptualized by Ogilvy, India, the film is a lyrical narrative that pays homage to hands that care and nurture, especially
a mother’s hands, beautifully weaving in the importance of care and protection. It is an emotional and sensorial experience through visuals that resonate with every individual.
