Conceptualized by tgthr, the commercial depicts two friends chatting while preparing tea. Suddenly, their domestic helper arrives, and one of the friends starts searching for an old used cup to serve her tea. Upon noticing this, the other friend urges her to consider the house helps as one of them and hand out tea in the same cup to the help, as them.”

CCO & Co-Founder, Aalap Desai, tgthr said, “A separate cup, a separate plate, and separate utensils, separate us from those we think are inferior to us. It’s modern-day casteism that we unknowingly participate in and perpetrate without realizing what we are doing. For the ones who don’t have such a divide in their house, the campaign is a pat on the back and for those who do, it’s a gentle awakening to make them see the unseen.”
