About the winning campaigns

As a part of the Punishing Signal campaign, special decibel meters were connected to traffic signals across the island city. When the decibel exceeded a dangerous 85dB, the signal timer would reset itself forcing people to wait longer at the signal. Thus ‘punishing’ them for their impatience with the message, 'honk more, wait more'.

To bring equality to the kitchen, Swiggy Instamart and Dentsu Webchutney, the digital agency from the house of dentsu international (India), have launched ‘The Better Half Cookbook’—a one-of-a-kind cookbook that splits into two halves to give partners an equal responsibility to cook the meal. Each partner has to follow only their side of the instructions to see their meal come together, together.

Vice Media has collaborated with Dentsu Webchutney to bring out the world's first teletext news portal, christened The 8-Bit Journo. Relevant news stories that Kashmiris had missed out on were converted into teletext and dispatched to lakhs of Kashmiris through SMS.
