Client Overview
The Challenge
Designing for a fast-paced food brand like Thanda Garam required capturing attention instantly while maintaining brand consistency.
Key challenges included:
- Creating high-impact promotional visuals for offers and events

Our Strategy
Nostalgia-Driven Content Strategy
Developed a content narrative built around the sensory experience of Indian street food—the sizzle of a tawa, steam rising from chai, the crunch of a fresh samosa. Short Reels and aesthetic carousels drove high emotional resonance and shareability.
Community Building & UGC
Launched a ‘Share Your Thanda Garamm Moment’ campaign encouraging customers to tag the brand in their food content. Reposted UGC weekly, building community authenticity and reducing content production costs by 40%.
Pop-Up Event Promotion
Created event-specific Instagram and Facebook campaigns with countdown Stories, teaser posts, and location reveals to build anticipation and drive attendance at pop-up events and food festivals.
Hashtag & Trend Hijacking
Strategically inserted Thanda Garamm into trending Indian food conversations on Instagram and TikTok, using culturally relevant hashtags and trending audio to expand organic reach beyond the core community.
