Storyboard:

The film is about a newly married couple who have set out for their honeymoon. Their excitement of being together is temporarily marred by the fact that they have been allocated two separate seats in the plane. The girl is visibly anxious to get this sorted by somehow exchanging seats which would then allow the two of them to sit together. She takes her request to change seats to her co-passenger who is a sombre, elderly and retired sort of a gentleman and a seemingly no nonsense kind of a person. He politely declines her offer because he prefers aisle seats and wont move to a middle seat in exchange. However, this matter of fact guy has a sudden change of mood when a young chirpy girl recognises him to be a professor whose books helped her to do well in her studies. The engagement with this girl, which makes him feel happy and recognised, pushes him to loosen up and offer his seat to the the girl's husband. The film is shot in a plane and resembles a typical scenario before take off when passengers are all trying to settle in and tuck their bags in their overhead bins. The film finally ends with a track that helps accentuate the turn around of events to a happy amicable space with the end tagline of " khushiyonwaali feeling".

Purpose of the ad:

The key purpose of the campaign is to drive awareness of the light hearted content available on Sony SAB that lightens our lives. The brand has set out to do this by way of the insight that "Our lives are filled with stress and daily struggles, with no respite, even a small dose of happiness can have a big influence in looking at the world in a more positive light. Happiness has the ability to create a domino effect where you don't just want to contain it to yourself but it propels you to really pay it forward." So, the dimension of happiness that we wanted to champion at Sony SAB, marrying with the consumer insight was "Jitniinsaankikhushibadhtihai, utniheeduniyameininsaniyatbhibadhtihai". Keeping this core thought in mind, Sony SAB has launched this campaign with a new tagline 'KhushiyonWali Feeling'. This was the guiding force for the campaign which is a series of 3 films that creatively showcases through relatable everyday instances how happiness begets humanity.
