Dell Technologies revives joyous nostalgia through AI

Delhi: Dell Technologies has launched its latest festive campaign titled “Sweets,” positioning the PC as a tool for users. 

The campaign film tells the story of a young man visiting a sweet shop, craving a traditional Indian dessert, kheer. Upon arriving, he learns that the recipe for this beloved treat has been forgotten. Despite suggestions among other patrons, no one can recall the exact ingredients. Determined to rediscover the lost recipe, the young man turns to Dell’s AI-powered Inspiron 14 Plus. Using AI-driven insights, he recreates the recipe, piecing it together bit by bit, with a little help from his grandmother. In a heartfelt conclusion, he shares the rediscovered delicacy with his newfound companions. 

Announcing the campaign, Mayuri Saikia, Director of Marketing, Consumer and Small Business, Dell Technologies, India, said, "The festive season in India brings a sense of cheer and excitement, often filled with nostalgia. Technology has the unique ability to connect people, making these moments even more special. Our latest campaign celebrates this spirit and highlights how AI has evolved into a vital part of our everyday lives, helping users discover new possibilities. With Dell's commitment to empowering people with the right technology and innovative products, we are enabling our customers to stay ahead and achieve desired outcomes."

Conceptualised and developed by VML, the campaign adopts an omni-channel strategy, launching interactive videos on Dell's social media platforms. 

Commenting on the campaign, Rohan Kumar from VML said, "Festivals today are filled with individuality and personality. Trends show that every celebration has its own unique touch. Food, being an integral part of any festival, brings its own distinct flavours to each occasion. This year, we wanted to highlight Dell’s range of AI-powered PCs, which can help people reconnect with their roots and make this festive season truly special."
