Mumbai: Praveen Kenneth, founder Law&Kenneth, and who retired last year as chairman of Law&Kenneth|Saatchi & Saatchi, has launched a campaign under the platform of “Ek Desh, Ek Hum”. The platform kicks off with a video that stresses on the theme of “Stronger Together” theme.
Stating on the intent of the messaging, Praveen Kenneth said- “ What we are conveying is not new. It’s simple , it’s obvious . We all know the Magic of India is the amazing diversity of its people, across cultures and religion. Our life is fuller, Vibrant, expanded, thanks to our Hindu, Christian, Muslim, Sikh, Jain, Buddhists friends, brothers and sisters . I believe this is the underlying strength of our Nation. The important thing however is that we need to keep bringing this back into the Center stage of Conversation and Consciousness. It’s like brushing teeth- it needs to be gotten into our collective Consciousness -always. And this needs to be a on-going and a engaging conversation- NATION ABOVE ALL. A Nations health and progress is directly proportional to the quality of the collective and inclusiveness of the society- and that’s the truth. We all know and have been taught this from school- That only in Connection there is Progress/Growth/Joy, and in DisConnection- there is pain, suffering , chaos.”
Kenneth said. “In a daily life which zigzags through understandable difference, disagreements, arguments and loud and angry debates- which is the beauty of a Democracy and always encouraged – the Interest Of India and Indians , should and will always be the in the Center. The campaign is an effort to bring back this conversations. This effort will be wasted if this ends up trying to pick up holes and complaining – instead , to focus on moving forward, always improving , always enabling , always looking at the bigger picture of Great Progress”
