It's #GreaterTogether than being individuals when in love, says Platinum Days of Love

“I am a re-write obsessive” and “She - a one-take wonder” — these lines from the latest digital film launched by Platinum Days of Love are a glimpse of the film that unfolds to tell the story of a couple. Two accomplished individuals in their own field—the boy a celebrated writer and the girl a revered actor—fall in love and their love creates something bigger, a third space that is greater.

Conceptualised and developed by Dentsu Webchutney, the film supports an empowering new narrative from Platinum Days of Love, a narrative that is based on being ‘GreaterTogether’. It is the thought that holds together all facets of the new season’s collection of Platinum Love Bands. The perception of togetherness in a relationship has often been tainted with idea of compromise and adjustments. Falling in love has been consistently portrayed and reinforced even culturally as a situation where one is expected to lose a sense of self, where one needs to sacrifice to make it work. Differences in personality, preferences, and beliefs have often been seen as challenges that need to be overcome if the relationship needs to stay. But today couples are redefining the idea of togetherness. Rare though it may be, we do see examples of a relationship that is bigger than the individuals in it. One that is built over respect for individual uniqueness and what each brings to the table. This new identity stands for a greater ‘Us’ than they each do individually. Platinum Days of love marks and celebrates a relationship based on this rare quality. Saluting couples who can come together to build an even more formidable force where differences add perspective and similarities are built on to make one stronger.

#GreaterTogether has also been translated into a brand experience for couples. One of the most unique aspects of the film created for this campaign is the usage of an innovative ‘split-screen tool’ that needs you and your partner to bring together your phones to watch the whole film. This creative innovation magnifies the campaign idea of #GreaterTogether, to show that together, we see things that maybe we would have missed by ourselves. 

“Perception-wise, relationships and compromise seem to be tightly locked in as two sides of the same coin. The progressive stance around relationships today, however, is the coming together of two accomplished individuals — the creation of a greater partnership. It is where the popular culture narrative and depiction power-couples, super-couples emerge from. Complementing each other, building off each other rather than pinning and pulling each other down is aspirational. This truth is true for our collection, its communication and the experience, hence named #GreaterTogether,” said Sujala Martis, Consumer Marketing Director, Platinum Guild International, India.

Pravin Sutar, Executive Creative Director, Dentsu Webchutney, added, “We’ve all seen many ad films about courtship, but how often do we get to actually experience the feeling conveyed by these films? By creating a #GreaterTogether experience where couples could watch our film by pairing their phones, we were able to do away with age-old romantic clichés like, ‘You complete me’. As individuals, we’re independent, successful and great, as it is. So, when you and your partner come together, you’re greater.”

Known for meaningful design, the new season’s collection embodies the #GreaterTogether concept in three themes that mirror the truth of relationships:

• The Circle of Love: a range of couple bands where in each ring elements entwine and encircle, symbolising unwavering support that each can have for the other, helping build towards a great partnership.
• So Different And So In Love:  A range of couple bands in which contrasting patterns and opposing forms come together to symbolise the great union of opposites.
• Twin Souls In Love: A range of couple bands with modern finishes with matched textures and similar motifs which perfectly signifies how the couple mirrors each other.

The endearing new integrated digital and marketing campaign is currently live to promote the all-new range of Platinum Love Bands. The campaign is a 360-degree program led by a digital film and supported by a communication plan that includes TV, cinema, print, digital, OOH and PR across markets to ensure high reach and frequency. The content across these mediums are focused to drive awareness and visibility for the new collection.
