Conceptualised and created by agency TBWA\India, the campaign amplifies the nationwide safety message and urges all Indians to come together in the country’s fight against the virus.
The initiative is spearheaded by a hero spot and supported by an online video series which are all fronted by cricket icon Kapil Dev and which use cricket analogies to explain the similarities between preparing for a match and preparing to fight the virus.

Launched on 29 June, the seven-video series runs across all Nissan Indian online platforms and the spots are supported by additional social content.
