MUMBAI: Where faith meets footfall, Chaaipani is scripting a new chapter in spiritual storytelling. Chaaipani has been named the exclusive advertising and brand activation partner for the Jagannath Puri Rath Yatra 2025, one of India’s most spiritually charged and widely attended festivals, drawing over 1.5 crore devotees annually.

As the grand chariots of Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra, and Subhadra prepare to roll through Puri on 27 June, a different kind of journey begins behind the scenes. With this partnership, Chaaipani is tasked with orchestrating branding, sponsorships, and immersive on-ground activations carefully designed to resonate with the spiritual atmosphere while elevating the experience for attendees and brands alike.

For many marketers, the Rath Yatra offers a rare confluence of scale, sentiment, and visibility, especially across Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets. But this isn't your usual marketing pitch, it's faith-first. And Chaaipani, known for its culturally rooted storytelling and community-first ethos, aims to walk the fine line between devotion and disruption with thoughtful precision.

Speaking about the partnership Chaaipani founder Shruti Chaturvedi said, “We are deeply honored to be entrusted with the advertising and brand activation for the Jagannath Rath Yatra 2025. This is more than just a festival, it is an embodiment of faith, devotion, and centuries-old tradition. Our goal is to create a respectful and authentic brand storytelling experience that enhances the Yatra for millions of devotees while preserving its spiritual essence.”

The mandate covers end-to-end execution from planning to on-ground integration ensuring every participating brand not only shows up but does so meaningfully. With a reputation for balancing modern storytelling with cultural sensitivity, Chaaipani’s playbook promises reverent innovation.

As faith takes to the streets this June, Chaaipani will be curating not just a brand campaign, but a collective memory for millions who gather for divine darshan, and for marketers hoping to walk beside them respectfully.
