Execution

The creative task was to make Indians FEEL for their national animal. Indians are used to and somewhat immune to 'crises'.To cut through the clutter of crises and apathy, the integrated campaign told the story from the eyes of a cub. Then hammered home the shocking number of tigers left: only 1411. Celebrities from sport, cinema and public life stepped up to lend their weight to the cause. Outdoor and radio added to the impact.

The website and social networking presence gave the audience a platform to raise their voice.
