The Campa Cola campaign ‘Tayyari Big, Tyohaar Bada Big’, created by McCann India, celebrates the preparation that comes before Indian festivals rather than the celebration itself. The campaign is live across television, digital and social media, afaqs! reported on 10 November 2026.
McCann India is part of Omnicom Advertising India. The work centres on cleaning, decorating, cooking, practising, shopping, building and setting up.
What is the Campa Cola campaign about?
The insight behind the work is that Indian festivals begin well before the official celebration, and the campaign targets families who actively make the festival happen. The film is a humorous, slice-of-life piece. It shows teenagers decorating diyas, a housing society learning dandiya, jalebis being made, a giant Ravan taking shape, families cleaning homes, and pandals and decorations going up. Campa Cola appears during breaks and is passed between people during the activity.
What it means for Indian marketers
Festive advertising is a crowded space, and this campaign moves the story from the festival day to the build-up. Rahul Mathew, Chief Creative Officer at McCann India, said: “Festive advertising has started to look like it’s been cut from the same wrapping paper.” He said the agency wanted a differentiated space for Campa and chose to celebrate “the festival of preparation”. Mathew also said preparation is when the big bottles of Campa come into the house.
