Htattt India Launches An All ‘Neww Food And Beverage (F&B) Campaign ’

The campaign reinforces its position as a culinary leader and further cements its reputation as a trailblazer in India's hospitality industry

Hyatt India today unveiled its innovative Food and Beverage (F&B) campaign in India, poised to reinforce its position as a leader in the country's luxury culinary landscape. The campaign aligns with Hyatt's core value of caring for people, empowering them to be their best. With this campaign Hyatt reinforces its position as a culinary leader and further cements its reputation as a trailblazer in India's hospitality industry.

Hyatt's culinary journey in India is rooted in the success of its signature restaurants, including La Piazza, TK's Oriental Grills, China House, The Flying Elephant, Malabar Café, Koyo Koyo to name a few. These iconic outlets have consistently delivered exceptional dining experiences, reflecting the brands passion for innovation, quality, creativity, and authenticity. The campaign celebrates this legacy with a bold narrative.

“This campaign represents a bold new chapter in our culinary journey, one that celebrates the evolving tastes and preferences of Indian consumers. By showcasing our commitment to exceptional cuisine, authentic service, and unforgettable experiences, we're challenging traditional notions of luxury dining and inviting guests to discover a world of experiences that's both accessible and exceptional. Above all, the campaign is rooted in our purpose of `Care`. The line `No matter what we do, Our restaurants take all your attention` is based on the insight that exceptional F&B experiences are a powerful thing. They can even make you forget other great things about our hotel –like fabulous service, attention to detail, the thoughtfulness. The film ends with the message `Made with Love, Cherished Forever` epitomising the attention to detail and effort behind all our F&B offerings that result in unforgettable experiences for our guests” said Deepa Krishnan, Head of Marketing, India and Southwest Asia, Hyatt.

“Hyatt globally and in ASPAC is known for our F&B programme. In India, Hyatt has a strong legacy with restaurants like La Piazza, TK’s Oriental Grills, China House, The Flying Elephant, Koyo Koyo, Malabar Café and many more. At Hyatt, we're committed to redefining luxury dining in India. We're passionate about exceeding expectations and crafting experiences that linger long after the meal is finished. From the first bite to the last, every detail – our chefs' creativity, our staff's warmth, and the ambience – is thoughtfully designed to make our guests feel truly special and celebrated,” said Thomas Angerer, Director of Food & Beverage, India and Southwest Asia, Hyatt.

Conceptualised by Animal and Directed by Achowe, the campaign can be seen across Digital, OOH and Property platforms.

The campaign takes center stage in a captivating brand film, where the exceptional gastronomic experience at Hyatt's restaurants shines. At the heart of the film is Hareesh, a Hyatt staff member who exemplifies the brand's commitment to exceptional service and meticulous attention to detail. Not to be outdone, the restaurant experience is equally captivating with an array of chefs who create an unforgettable experience for the guests. As the narrative unfolds, one phrase perfectly captures the essence of the Hyatt experience: "Made with Love, Cherished Forever"

"There are over 535 million posts under #food on Instagram – delicious-looking reels, carousels, stories that can make your mouth water and also, fill you up. So when we set out to do a campaign about the legendary food and restaurants of Hyatt, one thing all of us were clear on was that we couldn’t lead with food – because it's everywhere. So we started thinking about how great food makes us feel. What it makes us do. What it opens our eyes to. And finally: what great food makes us turn a blind eye to.

A thought that hopefully does justice not only to the incredible food at Hyatt but also to the fabulous, courteous, hard-working people who work there." said Sayantan Choudhury, Senior Partner, Animal

Taneira Launches ‘For Beautiful Beginnings’ Campaign Across India

~Elevates the season with a Wedding range that celebrates a bride’s cherished heritage and hopeful future~

Weddings are a medley of emotions, a fusion of the past and start of a new chapter where love transcends boundaries and new stories unfold. Taneira, a Tata product captures the spirit of this universal journey with its latest campaign, ‘For Beautiful Beginnings’. Featuring Mrunal Thakur among others, the campaign tells the tale of a bride crossing the threshold of her childhood home taking along the echoes of a myriad memories and embracing the promise of her new life filled with endless possibilities- an experience shared across the diverse cultural landscapes of India.

Through the campaign, Taneira pays homage to the profound wave of emotions that unites brides regardless of region or tradition while highlighting the unique nuances that define their journeys. In this moment, the bride is not just draped in a saree- she is enveloped in the dreams, memories and hopes of everyone she holds dear. Across the seven regions captured in Taneira’s ‘For Beautiful Beginnings’ campaign, the bride’s saree, though diverse in fabric, drape, and design, becomes a universal companion on her journey of transformation.

‘For Beautiful Beginnings’ celebrates the cultural lineage woven into the fabric of this sacred moment with a collection that represents our timeless traditions blending the deep-rooted richness of our country’s craft culture with contemporary design interpretations and modern colourways. True to the brand philosophy, the collection celebrates pure, authentically sourced fabrics with a differentiated design language. Taneira also offers zari certifications, ensuring the bride embodies the true essence of heritage on her big day. Extending the celebrations to the entire wedding entourage, the sarees in the wedding range offer an array of options that suit different roles and personalities. Whether it is the bride’s best friend, the grooms’ mother, or a cousin playing a key part in the celebration, there is a saree for every woman who shares this joyous occasion along with the couple. 

Speaking at the launch, Ms. Shalini Gupta, General Manager, Taneira Said, “At Taneira, we believe that every bride’s journey is a celebration of tradition and transformation. Our campaign is an expression of the sentiments, memories and dreams that shape her path, emotions that, despite cultural nuances, unites brides across the country. Our wedding range reflects this ethos, offering a curated selection of sarees that preserve and promote our textile traditions while embracing each bride’s uniqueness. Each piece is crafted to become a part of the bride’s legacy, woven with love, pride and promise of Beautiful Beginnings.”

Each saree in Taneira’s wedding collection comes with a history and story of its own. From the regal white and red Kanjeevaram draped by the Kannadiga Bride to the vibrant red Kanjeevaram intricately woven with silver and gold motifs worn by the Tamil bride, each piece is a reflection of regional pride and grace.

The Telugu bride is enveloped in the resplendent tissue Kanjeevaram where delicate floral motifs dance across the fabric like memories in the making while the lustrous Paithani saree replete with motifs of flora and fauna- encapsulates the beauty of the Maharashtrian heritage.

From the opulent Banarasi Saree, enhanced with delicate minakari accents for the North Indian bride to the rich red Banarasi saree adorned by the Bengali bride, embellished with paisley and floral buttis in a luxurious blend of silver-gold zari, echoes the splendor and timeless elegance of the region. Meanwhile, the resplendent Gharchola with its vibrant patterns and symbolic checkered motifs, weaves a tale of celebration also capturing the collective joy of the community.

In this seamless fusion of the past and the present, the bride steps forward draped in love and strength of her culture. ‘For Beautiful Beginnings’ becomes more than just a moment, it is a living story told through Taneira’s Wedding range which celebrates not only the bride’s personal transition but every woman’s distinctive part and the rich cultural diversity that marks this timeless tradition. With ‘For Beautiful Beginnings’, Taneira offers a lasting legacy woven with care, passion and the promise of a bright, beautiful future.
