There were three major goals:

• Capture the audience’s attention with a compelling emotional narrative. 
• Bring awareness to an overlooked issue of food wastage on household levels. 
• Bridge the gap between awareness and action with simple, practical solutions.

• Hunger & Household Waste– The contrast between ever-present need and excess waste is prominent in the food consumption patterns in India. Millions of people suffer from hunger and malnutrition, whereas approximately 40% of produced food is wasted in India every year, with the leading contributor being the waste generated at household levels.
• Increase in Food Wastage During Festivities– During major events like festivities and celebrations, food becomes an integral part, leading to higher demand for consumption and unnoticed wastefulness.
• Lack of Awareness of the Issue & Solutions- The issue of food wastage is known; however, many people never realise its extent. Even after realising, people struggle to make changes as they seem daunting. 

In this campaign, five key drivers were utilised to create awareness for the cause of stopping food wastage:

• Relatable Narrative: The campaign’s core was a short film featuring a typical Indian household. Through the innocent perspective of children, the story juxtaposes the unnoticed wastage of food in homes with the struggles of underprivileged people.
• Strong Emotional Hook: Leveraging the innocence of children brought to screen by child actors and the renowned Marathi actor Chinmay Udgirkar, the film connected emotionally with audiences, encouraging introspection about their habits.
• Digital-First Approach: The short film was promoted across social media platforms, using targeted marketing to reach tech-savvy and socially conscious audiences to maximise reach and engagement.adapting keywords seasonally.
