Deepavali is approaching, and I’m stuck.
The Malaysian Indian woman of substance.
Docile housewife? Think again. CEO by day, cultural icon by night.
Kolam at dawn. Board meeting at noon. Bharatanatyam at dusk.
She doesn’t choose between modern and traditional. She owns both.
Respect Her Duality. Celebrate Her Roots. Empower Her Voice. Honour Her Journey. Fuel Her Ambition.
How do you make a festival of lights shine even brighter?
That’s when my AI companion threw me a curveball.
“What if,” AI suggested, “we show a woman coding festival lights?”
At first, I laughed. Coding? For Deepavali?
But then it hit me like a bolt of lightning. This wasn’t just an ad idea.
It was a revolution in 30 seconds.
We craft a story of an Indian woman, a tech whiz, using her coding skills to create the most spectacular light show her village had ever seen.
Traditional rangoli patterns morphed into circuit board designs.
Diyas flickered in binary. It was Deepavali 2.0.
The response? Explosive. Women in tech were cheering.
Girls were asking for coding classes instead of kitchen sets.
We hadn’t just made an ad; we’d sparked a movement.
This taught me a crucial lesson: advertising isn’t just about selling products.
It’s about shaping narratives, challenging norms, and yes, even changing lives.
Now, every campaign I create aims to do more than just sell.
Because when tech meets tradition, and commerce meets cause, that’s when the real magic happens.
