The campaign aims to enhance awareness regarding ocular health in general, emphasising the necessity of regular eye check-ups.
“This TV commercial goes beyond simply promoting our services—it encourages people to recognize the importance of regular eye check-ups, even when their vision seems fine. Also, getting your eyes checked regularly ought to be a habit for everyone. I would like to thank the two cricketing legends for working together in our mission to encourage people to take better care of their eyes and take proactive steps to improve their eyesight,” said Ayushman Chiranewala, Chief Marketing Officer, Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital

Devaiah Bopanna, Co-founder of Moonshot, said, “Glenn McGrath and Sachin facing off again—the ’90s coming to life all over again. It’s something our target audience would absolutely enjoy. Addressing one of the most controversial moments from their time on the field, while seamlessly integrating our call to action, was the icing on the cake. The goal was to create something memorable to encourage people to get their eyes tested regularly. A big thanks to our director, Rahul Bharti, for perfectly executing the film in terms of cast and look.”
