Bengaluru: In a bid to reshape the way Indians perceive health insurance, Narayana One Health has unveiled a fresh and imaginative campaign for its flagship offering—Arya Health Plans. The campaign introduces a powerful new narrative that positions insurance not just as a financial safety net during emergencies but as a proactive partner in an individual’s health journey.
Launched with an eye-catching, music-driven storytelling approach, Arya Health Plans breaks away from traditional fear-based advertising and puts forward a unique blend of humour and creativity. At the heart of this campaign is The Troubadour—a charismatic, musical mascot who guides viewers through everyday healthcare scenarios while showcasing Arya’s diverse features and benefits.
Designed as a comprehensive health and insurance package, Arya Health Plans seamlessly integrates OPD visits, savings on diagnostics and medicines, full-scale hospitalization cover, and India’s first-of-its-kind One Health promise—ensuring healthcare access is easy, efficient, and stress-free. The plan also includes wellness tracking features and medicine deliveries, making proactive healthcare more accessible than ever.
“At Narayana One Health, we believe that health insurance should be a source of reassurance, not fear. This campaign is a step towards making insurance feel approachable, engaging and truly beneficial for everyday healthcare needs. By integrating a range of proactive healthcare benefits, we are ensuring that people no longer see insurance as just an emergency backup, but as an essential part of their well-being,” said Ravi Vishwanath, CEO, Narayana One Health.
Unlike the usual somber tone adopted in insurance advertising, Arya’s campaign is light-hearted yet impactful. The Troubadour uses music, wit, and charm to communicate the many ways Arya simplifies health protection. With an engaging tone and accessible message, the films are designed for high relatability and strong brand recall—especially among younger and urban audiences.
“To bring this vision to life in our launch films, we introduced the Troubadour—a charming, ever-present yet playful character who embodies our promise of continuous care. Rather than relying on fear-based messaging, we chose humour to create a fresh, engaging narrative that truly stands out. This film marks a very important step in making Arya Health Plans, a partner in your journey (not limited to a guest appearance like an Insurance plan) to help redefine a customer’s presumption on what they expect from their Insurance partners,” said Gunjan Khaitan Shahabadi, Head of Marketing and Category Management.
Arya Health Plans aims to unify two traditionally separate aspects of well-being—healthcare and insurance—under one cohesive experience. The initiative underscores Narayana One Health’s commitment to proactive, lifelong care by offering tangible health benefits even before a claim is made.
“Healthcare and Health Insurance have always been two opposite sides of the coin and it was high time to bridge that gap!” the campaign notes.
Currently available exclusively in Bengaluru, Arya Health Plans is set to expand to other regions in the near future. As more individuals begin to take control of their health journeys, Narayana One Health’s customer-first, narrative-led approach is poised to spark a positive shift in health insurance adoption.
