Rakhshabandhan: vow to a safer society

The annual festival of Rakhshabandhan is meant to perpetuate the everlasting ties between brother and sister. The word “Rakhsha” signifies safety and Bandhan is an association announcing an abiding bond. In ancient times this bond of security was celebrated as a symbolic peace ambassador, where a queen used to send this anti-war thread to other kingdoms for ensuring the harmony, non-violence and security among the two Empires and it was carried out as a lifelong vow.

But, in today’s society only few girls have the pleasure to pursue their chase of dream beneath their brother’s safe wings. Others have to live separately from their family to spend a life they wish. In today’s scenario who will lock up their safety? Social Binding is the answer to this. Let’s make up our mind to save all ladies of our society. It might be a friend living separately from her family, a classmate in the hostel, a lady in the new city or a girl travelling daily in the bus. Let’s promise a calm shelter to them.

Let’s celebrate this Rakhi as an Event to cease the violence in society. Why only vow to protect one’s sister only, let’s pledge to protect the whole women population. This relation of protection is not limited to a brother-sister, but is an Event to Celebrate the Social Binding, which is very well executed in the new Idea advertisement. It can be among a Defense man and a citizen, a security guard and a little school girl, a bus driver and a daily traveler, and many more.

Let’s Honor them for helping us in the situation, let’s thank them for being our guide, let’s gratify them for the guarding, and let’s acknowledge them of their significance. Let us salute the bond of safety with everyone who immune our shelter from any mishap.

To save the sister with same blood in veins…

Is a ritual taught and in our mind it always remains…

Why not pledge to save all ladies…?

Why not vow safety to all…?

Why it needed to be a brother…

Let us be a guard to each other…

United we stand, divided we fall…

But a thread of peace can save us all…

Wish you all a Happy Rakshabandhan!

Befriending the Ad World 4th August Friendship Day

Sharing secrets, hiding mistakes

Playing pranks, dancing in rains

All it speaks is a bond so strong,

 Known as FRIENDSHIP and lasts long.

Can you imagine your life without the person, with whom you share your outbursting emotions every day or a person who is always ready to lend his shoulder along with his PJ’s to cheer you up again?  Of course not. We all need a friend to rely upon, to believe on, to share the grief and to get mental relief. But maintaining this relation during the life’s ups and downs is this simple? No. Because, in life where it is difficult to find time to talk to oneself, it is almost impossible to steal the moments out of the busy schedule to talk to our dear ones.

Friendship Day obviously is a granted opportunity to go back to the golden days when we dreamt of being with our childhood friends for the whole life and endows us with an easy path to celebrate that togetherness, to respect the differences and revise our life’s preferences.

But should this celebration be bounded to 24 hours? No, the frolic should go on. Each moment of life spent with friends should be made enjoyable enough to be treasured in the lasting frames of our hearts.

“ADVERTISING THE FRIENDSHIP”

Call it a way of creating reminiscences or socialization; the Advertising world is ADding spice of Friendship to its persuading advertisements to connect with the target audience emotionally.

 “Wherever You Go, the Network Follows which is Happy to Help (Vodafone) you Celebrate Small Occasions With Friends (Cadbury) and enjoy the Yummy Taste Of Friendship (KFC) with Your New Chataakedaar Company (Domino’s) to Cherish The Gift From Your Very Own (Titan Sonata)”.

Remember something? The above paragraph is dedicated to the latest advertisements creating a “Dosti Effect” on the minds of young as well as the aged consumers following the products.

Following the same,  Coca-Cola and Ogilvy & Mather Shanghai have come together to develop a new art and digital campaign that has a unique approach to “happiness creation” for the friendship experiment along with conducting different interesting activities all over the world.

Whether it is Airtel friendship campaign- “Jo Tera Hai Wo Mera Hai” and “Har Ek Friend Zaroori Hota Hai” or the Shine.com new marketing idea, “Yaar Tu God Hai”, Friendship is being celebrated as a unique bond in the movies, songs, stories, daily soaps and Advertisements.

These exploding and amazing communion examples have helped the audience win friends and influenced them to a great extent, as a result of which the advertisers are using this obvious human emotion of friendship to fulfill their commercial objectives.

When Advertising world is not left behind in celebrating the “Friendship Day” throughout the year, then why are you waiting?

Call an old friend today and make him feel special…plan a blasting “Friendship Day” with him and make a promise to take this bond beyond the limitations of a day so that you can cherish this Friendship throughout your life.

To ho jaaye “DOSTI KA SHUBHAARAMBH”?
