Mumbai: Lowe Lintas, one of India's advertising agencies, has set its sights on a fun campaign for Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital Group, an eye care chain with 150+ hospitals spread across 10 countries. The campaign, featuring Revathi and Anant Mahadevan, aims to challenge the deep-rooted societal tendency of taking senior citizens for granted, while also highlighting the transformative impact of Dr Agarwals corrective vision surgeries on their lives.
In a society where some may view our grandparents and parents as mere caretakers and advisors, Lowe Lintas takes centre stage, aiming to challenge this perception with humour and wit. Often taken for granted without considering their own aspirations and desires - from being the go-to creche option for new parents to the assumption that they will always be available for support and advice. The campaign champions the notion that age should never dim the sparkle of one's aspirations.
Commenting on the campaign, Dr Agarwals Group of Eye Hospitals CMO Ayushman Chiranewala said, “The importance of fun in old age cannot be overstated. It translates to their emotional well-being, which relies largely on their quality of life. And nothing hampers the quality of life than poor eyesight. By restoring vision, we also enable them to gain back their positive outlook on life. This message has been carefully crafted by Lowe Lintas, and we really do believe that ‘what you see and what you don’t should be your choice.”
The campaign takes a stand against this prevailing mindset, urging society to recognize that being a senior citizen does not mean life should be devoid of personal aspirations and dreams. Leveraging this powerful insight, the films created by Lowe Lintas beautifully portray the positive impact of corrective vision surgeries on the lives of senior citizens. The message truly depicts the narrative of being able to live your life to the fullest.
Sharing his thoughts about the campaign, Lowe Lintas Bangalore executive director, head of creative, Arpan Bhattacharyya said, “Old people want to have fun just as much as youngsters. But often, weak eyesight holds them back. Dr Agarwals corrective vision surgeries offer them a new lease on life and let them enjoy old age on their own terms. Using the delightful pairing of Revathi and Anant Mahadevan, we wanted to deliver this message in a way that empowers senior citizens and opens their eyes to the possibilities out there.”
