Driven by a quest for perfection, Tamilians take great pride in their methodical approach to all things in life and an eye for detail. The new Chakra Gold campaign for Tamil Nadu is a celebration of this Tamilian codes of conduct in life that is evident even in their day to day situations.
The film, conceptualized by Mullen Lintas, opens in a traditional meal area of a Tamil function where the server, who is placing a banana leaf in a certain direction, is stopped by his supervisor who shows the ‘right way’ of placing it. More such life illustrations follow, all showcasing the Tamil penchant for doing every little thing in the methodical ways and the right manner.
It ends with a scene where we see the same eagerness for the process being demonstrated by a young boy who copies his father in tying a veshti around his waist, diligently. In all these situations, the most interesting character is played by the VO of an uncle, obsessed with Tamil processes and corrects people whenever they make a mistake.
When it comes to the process of making a good cup of tea, the ‘Uncle’ recommends
Tata Tea Chakra Gold as the tea for Tamilians. The film ends with showcasing all protagonists enjoying the aromatic cup of Tata Tea Chakra Gold.
