Lloyd, thanks for a comfortable SMARTIES organised yesterday and congratulations to you and your team on a lovely Friday where we could freely mingle and exchange knowledge. Really appreciate your guidance throughout the submissions and the win. Myntra client went back happy.
Looks like my SMARTIES did pretty well at the #SMARTIES2026 forum, after a tough fight for MMA India's top honor.
Delighted to have Pampers Premium Care and Gillette Fusion5 bring home Gold in what was an incredibly competitive SMARTIES season, with some outstanding work in contention, across categories.
Pampers Premium Care - Cross Digital Media Marketing
Gillette Fusion 5 - New Product Launch / Re-Launch
What makes this especially rewarding is knowing what sits behind these two trophies.
Two brands that constantly challenge convention, keep reinventing themselves, and never settle for average. The quality of work is never accidental. It's the outcome of ambitious brands, strong partnerships, healthy debate, and teams that care deeply about getting it right.
And to the incredible team for creating a fertile ground & for putting their hearts into the work, thank you for making the journey such a rewarding one.
Proud to see UltraTech Cement recognised as Most Resilient Brand of the Year at MMA India SMARTIES 2026.
A win that celebrates the power of collaboration, shared ambition and a partnership that continues to create meaningful impact. Congratulations to the UltraTech team and everyone behind this achievement!
Karix x Myntra Virtual Try-On Studio took Silver in the Personalisation category, and I'm still smiling about it.
The idea came from a question we've all asked while shopping online: "I like it…but, will it actually look good on me?"
So ahead of EORS, instead of sending shoppers yet another "you left something in your cart" message, Myntra let them try the look on. Right inside WhatsApp.
Pick a style, share a selfie in the chat, and see yourself in the outfit. That's it.
People loved it. Many even shared their try-on looks online. And it drove an 11% uplift in conversion compared with non-AI campaigns.
This win seems so personal and so seeing it on stage next to some of India's biggest brands and agencies feels extremely special.
