With Father’s Day just around the corner, all brands are hard at work launching one campaign after another. In a sea of Father’s Day posts, it’s tough for every ad to stand out. But Zepto gets it. Their #JustSayIt campaign definitely tugs at the heartstrings. Curious about what #JustSayIt is all about? Let’s find out!
Zepto launched its Father’s Day campaign #JustSayIt, featuring a touching ad film. The campaign’s centerpiece is a heartfelt video, which they released a few days ago on multiple social media platforms. It captures the essence of fatherhood, highlighting the unique & often unspoken bond between fathers & their children. The video aims to evoke emotions and encourage people to express their love and appreciation for their dads with #JustSayIt.
#JustSayIt Already!
Fathers are often stereotyped as the strong, silent type who prefer showing tough love instead of being expressive. But Zepto aims at changing that narrative. The ad showcases a nervous son trying to gather the courage to say an important message to his father. This Father’s Day ad focuses on normalising saying “I love you” to your dads no matter how awkward it gets.
The ad film is more than just a marketing tool; it’s a reminder to showcase your love and gratitude for your father. By highlighting the often unspoken bond between fathers & their children, Zepto hopes to inspire viewers to open up and #JustSayIt.

Stating Facts!
Chandan Mendiratta, chief branding officer at Zepto, emphasized the campaign’s core message, stating, “We all love our dads deeply, but sometimes it’s hard to put that love into words.

Our video film and special limited-edition gifts are our way of enabling our customers to say ‘I love you’ to their amazing dads. This Father’s Day, let’s celebrate our dads and tell them how much they mean to us.”
