The Mission Hospital is the first super specialty corporate hospital in Eastern India outside Kolkata. One of the finest healthcare facilities in Eastern India, its message in a set of ad films is simple: top-quality affordable and dependable healthcare.
Conceptualised by Ogilvy & Mather, Kolkata, the films reflect the real life healthcare concerns of suburban residents, and how they are addressed by The Mission Hospital.
The first film, 'Emergency', is set inside a humble Bengali household and documents the fears of a wheelchair-bound lady coping with her husband's heart attack. As the film progresses, she reveals that had it not been for The Mission Hospital's emergency ambulance services, she would have been utterly helpless.
'Kite Runner', the second film, follows the journey of a wistful child as he recalls how he could never keep up with the kids in his neighbourhood when they played outdoors. The film ends on a positive note, as the child demonstrates his new found vigour, thanks to the heart surgery performed on him at The Mission Hospital.
In the third film, we are introduced to an anxious man traveling home in a taxi. Having just landed in India from the US, his intent is to take his father back to the US for treatment –where he believes there are better surgeons. Much to his surprise, he finds his elderly father en route, jogging and active after knee replacement surgery at The Mission Hospital.
The fourth film, 'Wedding', opens on an elderly father. He is in a tizzy about how he will be able to organise his daughter's wedding owing to his need for an angioplasty. He's mulling over the extensive recovery period that will render him bed-ridden, but only until he was assured that the angioplasties performed at The Mission Hospital are minimally invasive with a rapid recovery time.
There is a thread that runs through all the films, an impending sense of helplessness, which by the end, has noiselessly transformed into determined hope.
Sujoy Roy, Creative Director Ogilvy, Kolkata, said, “The whole idea was to get the basic awareness among the consumers on the kind of healthcare measures that they should take. It was also important to create awareness about how The Mission Hospital is ready to solve in much affordable prices and that too with top-class quality. The result is a sense of gritty realism that instantly strikes a note with the audience.”
“And just as the language and stories are localised, so is the media plan. Given that Kolkata's suburbs are the target, a national media plan would have been overreaching. Instead, the rollout is contained to digital and single-theatre releases in the region, guaranteed to catch the eye of The Mission Hospital's target audience,” Roy added.
“Our mission is to decentralize super speciality healthcare, and deliver it to every doorstep in Eastern India, beyond the metropolis, and heal patients with dedication, honesty and tender and loving care. These films are an assurance of that,” said Dr Satyajit Bose, Chairman, The Mission Hospital Durgapur.
