What could have worked:
Britannia Good Day, the cashew nut cookie brand's new campaign 'Choti Khushiyan' (little joys) invites its audience to celebrate even the little cheerful moments.
A set of five films that depict various small moments of happiness. Of the five films, three of them are in a way breaking the gender status quo, with the woman driving the car, while her husband takes the passenger seat; the mother-daughter alluding to the possibility of the father touching the mother’s feet; or the two women in an office setting. One of the films poses household chores as a burden even though it shows the specific task as the father’s responsibility. But while the father expresses his joy at being free, it shows the mother watering the plants and going about her routine, distorting the sense of shared responsibility it may have sought to portray.
