Contextual OOH campaign at Fevicol Marol Naka Metro

Fevicol, a brand synonymous with wit and unbreakable bonds, has once again demonstrated its mastery of OOH advertising with a recent takeover of the Fevicol Marol Naka Metro Station. Moving beyond traditional billboards, the campaign leveraged the inherent structures and commuter behaviors of the metro environment to deliver site-specific, high-impact messaging that is both humorous and strategically brilliant. 

The success of this activation lies in its hyper-contextual creative. Instead of generic ads, Fevicol turned everyday commuter experiences into punchlines. On the escalator panels, the brand displayed the message, “Pakde rehna, chhodna nahi!” (Keep holding on, don’t let go!), complete with their iconic elephant mascot diligently holding on to a bag. This instantly relatable instruction for escalator safety was cleverly repurposed as a nod to Fevicol’s core attribute—adhesion—creating a perfect, timely connection with the traveling audience. 

Furthermore, the campaign creatively addressed the perennial problem of metro etiquette. Graphics placed directly on the platform doors and surrounding areas offered a humorous caution: “Seat se fevicol laga ke mat chipko. Doosro ko bhi baithne do.” (Don’t stick to the seat with Fevicol. Let others sit too.) This classic Fevicol humour transforms commuter annoyance into a memorable brand message. By seamlessly integrating their signature tone with the reality of daily travel, Fevicol ensured its campaign was not just seen, but actively appreciated and internalized by the target audience.
