Diwali – the victory of light over darkness! The Festival of Lights still stands for the same – it stands for hope, for kindness, and for understanding. A feeling well captured by Schmitten Luxury Chocolates, in their recent Diwali campaign, #AadhiAadhiDiwali.
#AadhiAadhiDiwali is the manifestation of the modern day dilemma that a new bride frequently faces – balancing between her family and her in-laws. Schmitten attempts to bridge the divide of these two families by reiterating how both families deserve equal love, respect, and attention.
Set in the backdrop of a family celebrating Diwali where the new bride is seen pining for her parents. As the family proceeds to finish the Diwali Pooja, the bride’s in laws urge her to go to her parents’ house and celebrate the other half of the festival with them. The video culminates as the in laws share that their son and daughter-in-law have responsibilities towards both the families.

The thought of #AadhiAadhiDiwali brings forth how marriage is the union of two families. Be it daily responsibilities or celebrating Diwali, the newlywed couple ought to be there for both the families. Diwali being an auspicious occasion, when celebrated at both the houses, sends out an important message.
