Our journey with Ugaoo has now grown into a milestone campaign with the inimitable Jackie Shroff. We conceptualised the ‘Ugaoo Bhidu, Ugaoo’ campaign, scripting five films, a series of shorter ads, and a launch photoshoot that brought alive Jackie’s long-standing love for plants in his classic bhidu style. The first film launched in August 2025, with the rest set to follow in the coming months.

Jackie Shroff embodies authenticity, warmth, and a deep-rooted connection to nature—qualities that echo Ugaoo’s spirit. Truly, there’s no one better to grow this journey with us.

Bhidu Bola Ugaoo

The idea behind the film was to show that even if your first plant doesn’t survive, the journey isn’t over. With a dramatic, humorous twist, Jackie nudges a plant parent to try again in his unmistakable style. The film sends a message of compassion for plants and for new plant parents alike, turning a small setback into a reminder that with Ugaoo, there’s always another chance to grow.

For the second film, we wanted to show why plants are the best gift for any occasion. Jackie shows us where he finds the most beautiful ones and shares them in his own playful, larger-than-life way.

Photoshoot

Photoshoot

We knew we had to capture Jackie Shroff in his element for the photoshoot. Open-collar shirts, bell-bottoms, a scarf around the neck, and printed shirts – all mimic Jackie’s personal style. It’s casual, suave, and unapologetically him. Set against a lush backdrop of Ugaoo plants, the photoshoot was conceptualised and planned to work across formats for the launch creatives of this campaign.
