This is how you use the true power of narrative. In Pakistan, where everyone complains about what the country has given to them, often forgetting what they should give to the country. This communication highlights it beautifully. A story of a taxi driver who is just focused on his own small world, and is ignoring the world around him, thanklessly observing Independence Day by criticizing everyone’s excitement and motivation. Placing the focus completely on the theme and not pushing the product even subtly shows how focused the brand was to celebrate the soul of the day.
