Mumbai: As GS Caltex India commemorates 15 years in India, the company is rolling out the 4th edition of its highly acclaimed #GaadiKeDoctor campaign, reinforcing its commitment to recognizing mechanics—the unsung heroes who keep vehicles running smoothly.
This year, the campaign takes a fresh, heartfelt approach, shifting the narrative from mechanics being just ‘Gaadi Ka Doctor’—the expert who fixes issues—to ‘Gaadi Ka Best Friend’, the trusted companion who ensures a vehicle’s longevity and strengthens the bond between car owners and their beloved machines.
Coinciding with GS Caltex India’s Foundation Day on February 2, the brand continues its tradition of celebrating Mechanic’s Day, acknowledging the pivotal role mechanics play in vehicle care and customer trust. With a strong presence in both B2B and B2C markets, this year’s campaign highlights how mechanics serve not just as service providers but as trusted advisors who safeguard a vehicle’s long-term health.
At the heart of the campaign is an emotionally engaging film, portraying a car owner’s unexpected disconnect with his beloved vehicle—one that only a mechanic truly understands. As the owner’s friends struggle to help, a mechanic steps in as the car’s best friend, restoring its spirit and rekindling the lost connection.
With a mix of humor, nostalgia, and impactful storytelling, the film emphasizes that mechanics do more than just repair vehicles—they preserve the deep bond between an owner and their machine. The campaign seamlessly integrates Kixx Engine Oil, positioning it as the go-to solution trusted by mechanics for ensuring long-lasting engine health and peak performance.
K Madhu Mohan, VP-Marketing, GS Caltex India, shared his vision, “As we celebrate 15 years in India, this campaign reflects how the relationship between mechanics, vehicle owners, and their vehicles has evolved. A mechanic is no longer just a ‘doctor’ fixing breakdowns—he is a best friend, ensuring a vehicle runs smoothly for years to come. This campaign is our tribute to the mechanics who make every journey safer and every vehicle stronger.”
Rajeev Dusa, Senior Marketing Manager, GS Caltex India, added, “When we first conceptualized ‘Gaadi Ke Doctor,’ our goal was to highlight how mechanics do more than just fix cars—they nurture the long-term relationship between a vehicle and its owner. This latest edition beautifully captures that message, reinforcing that mechanics are the true protectors of our journeys.”
The #GaadiKeDoctor campaign will be launched across digital platforms, social media, and mechanic networks in multiple regional languages, ensuring its heartfelt message reaches mechanics and vehicle owners nationwide.
Through storytelling, testimonials, and interactive content, GS Caltex India continues to deepen its engagement with the mechanic community, reinforcing the brand’s unwavering commitment to trust, expertise, and superior vehicle care.
