Strategic insight · 04Campaign communication · Youth mobilisation
A nationwide youth mobilisation campaign by BJYM around fitness, healthy living and Nasha Mukt Bharat, held during Seva Pakhwada and timed to 21 September 2025, where a public run was shaped into a high-energy national youth movement.
A public run at risk of being one more fitness event on a Sunday.
A belief campaign — teaser series, Bollywood culture-plays, mascot films, a 75-city system.
From a marathon to a national youth movement against addiction.
The strategic thought
It was not treated as just a marathon. It was shaped as a public participation moment where fitness, national service, youth energy and anti-drug awareness came together under one clear message.
A youth campaign on fitness, Nasha Mukt Bharat and Seva Pakhwada, tied to 21 September 2025.
A sharp, youth-facing visual language built to feel energetic, participative and movement-driven.
Campaign communication, digital and social creatives, youth messaging, event branding support, and reel and video-led amplification.
A public run reframed as a national youth movement, across 75 locations in Bharat.
Hero campaign creative
A teaser-led social set built around one repeated idea: one path breaks you, the other makes you.
To reach a generation, borrow the language it already loves — Gully Boy, Pushpa, Mirzapur — each reframed into the run's one message.
From the starting-line manifesto to the mascot — the assets that carried the run into the open.
Behind the campaign sits a full event brand — a geometric runner in campaign saffron, a gear-built lion mascot, and a system that carries both from the start line to the certificate.
