Johnson’s®️ baby, a pioneer in baby skincare, launches its latest television campaign (TVC), featuring Bollywood’s illustrious actors, Anil Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor. The new round of advertising features a fun, playful, and heartwarming film starring one of Bollywood's most favorite father-daughter duos. The film conceptualized by DDB Mudra reinforces the brand’s unwavering commitment to helping protect a baby’s delicate skin from day one with products formulated using only 'baby safe ingredients’.
Anil & Sonam Kapoor's Fun Ad: 'Mr. India' References & Baby Care
The new film captures a fun banter between Anil and Sonam Kapoor as they don their real-life roles on reel, making reference to the veteran actor’s iconic role as ‘Mr India’ (1987). The film opens with Sonam bathing the baby with Johnson’s Baby Soap. As a concerned grandfather, Anil Kapoor expresses his worry about the baby’s delicate skin, noting how it can lose moisture after a bath and emphasizing the importance of ‘protection pehle din se’. What follows is a fun exchange between Sonam and the baby, who reacts with glee as she remarks, “Moisture gayab ho jaata hai? Mr. India hai kya?” Sonam then goes on to highlight the superiority of Johnson's baby soap, specially formulated with naturally derived glycerin and vitamin E. This gentle formula helps to protect the baby’s natural moisture and healthy skin barrier, making it the perfect choice for newborns from ‘pehle din se’.
Mr Manoj Gadgil, Business Unit Head-Essential Health & Vice President Marketing, Kenvue, said, “Over the years, Johnson’s®️ Baby has been a trusted partner to parents, working consistently to deliver the best for their babies.

We are confident that this new film will resonate with mums.”
Talking of his experience in doing a TVC for Johnson’s baby, Anil Kapoor added, "Johnson’s baby is an iconic brand, a brand that has always been a trusted partner for parents like us in our parenting journey. It was in Johnson’s that Sunita and I trusted when our babies were born, from their first bath and first massage to many more milestones. I am delighted to be part of Johnsons’ latest campaign along with my daughter Sonam, which makes this campaign even more special to me. As sa father, and now a grandfather, I cannot overstate the importance of choosing only trusted brands to help protect and provide the best care for your baby from Day 1.”

Today, as a mother, protecting my baby’s skin is of utmost importance. I only use brands that are baby-safe with gentle ingredients that help protect baby’s skin from Day 1.
