Bangalore — Adukale, the esteemed multi-channel snacking brand renowned for its authentic ready-to-cook (RTC) and ready-to-eat (RTE) products, proudly announces the launch of its latest campaign, “Nammavara Savi.” This innovative campaign created by DDB Mudra, has been showcased in two ad films and masterfully blends tradition with contemporary storytelling, reflecting the rich culinary heritage of Karnataka.
Founded in 2009 by Nagaratna Ravindra, Malathi Sharma, and MS Ravindra, Adukale has become a symbol of Karnataka’s diverse culinary landscape through its range of namkeens, spices, and instant foods. The “Nammavara Savi” campaign epitomizes this legacy by connecting the present with the past through evocative and emotionally resonant visuals. The campaign comes to life through two distinct television commercials, each exploring the themes of memory and tradition.
The first commercial ad film showcases Adukale’s Kayi Kodubale, capturing a lively scene where the protagonist’s children enthusiastically scheme to enjoy the freshly made kodubales before they’re even dried off from the rain. This playful narrative reflects the children’s love for the snack, while the protagonist’s voiceover provides a touching contrast, recounting her own longing to taste her grandmother’s handmade kodubales once again. Through this parallel storytelling, the film highlights how Adukale’s kodubale revives cherished memories and familial connections.
The second commercial focuses on Adukale’s Gojjavalakki, depicting a late-night scenario where the protagonist’s children are hungry, and their mother is asleep. Their disappointment is quickly alleviated by their grandfather, who steps in to prepare the beloved dish. As the children enjoy the Gojjavalakki, the protagonist’s voiceover reminisces about her grandfather’s unique preparation of ‘kai ruchi,’ linking her nostalgic memories with the present. This film highlights how Adukale’s Gojjavalakki not only satisfies cravings but also rekindles fond family traditions.
