Earlier this, year, the campaign titled ‘Alarm Bajne Se Pehle Jaago Re’ urged people to stop reacting after they are hit by tragedies, instead to start ‘pre-acting’. The motive of the campaign was to promote the idea of pre-activism - a timely behavior to prevent the occurrence of unfortunate things.

A message for all parents:

In line with their ‘Alarm Bajne Se Pehle Jaago Re’, Tata Tea came out with another film this year, which showed that how small gestures from the parent’s side, can go a long way towards relieving the immense pressure students undergo these days.
