Summary

During the Durga Puja festival in 2025, Campa implemented its “Big Bottle, Big Celebration” marketing campaign in Kolkata. The central component of this activation was a 30-foot, immersive 3D anamorphic installation located at the 100-year-old Tala Prattoy Pandal. This display was designed to feature content representing both the Campa Cola and Campa Energy products. The campaign was executed in its entirety by Inventech, a division of the Laqshya Media Group. The project's strategy involved the use of display technology within a traditional festival context, aiming to connect both beverage products to the event through themes intended to be culturally relevant and energetic.

Problem statement/objective 

The challenge lay in making the brand stand out amidst the clutter of Puja advertising, while emotionally resonating with people across age groups  from families to young revellers.

Brief

The brief to Inventech was to create immersive content that reimagines how a beverage brand can become part of cultural celebration. The idea needed to be:

  • Visually arresting, to draw attention amidst the grandeur of Durga Puja

  • Emotionally anchored, connecting with the nostalgia of Campa Cola and the energy of Campa Energy

  • Reflective of Campa’s “zidd to celebrate every festival” philosophy

Creative idea 

The creative idea was to create a 3D anamorphic content that brings the essence of Durga Puja alive - capturing the vibrancy, joy, and togetherness of the festival. The installation visualised the festive energy in a way that merged tradition and innovation, turning the Tala Prattoy Pandal into a must-visit immersive experience.

The content showcased pandal hopping with Campa Energy and Zidd to celebrate every festival with Campa - Big Bottle, Big Celebration.

Challenges - Designing content for 30-foot anamorphic structure that perfectly aligned with viewing angles and lighting conditions of an open-air pandal.
