Peps Industries' new campaign asks India to ditch bad mattresses
, India's
spring mattress
brand, has launched its latest campaign 'Some Breakups are necessary' to raise awareness among customers to upgrade their mattresses on a timely basis.
Staying true to its reputation for combining storytelling and science, the brand has rolled out a witty, relatable film that captures the emotional toll of poor-quality mattresses, positioning spring mattresses as the long-term solution.
The multilingual series focuses on helping Indian consumers realise one simple truth: if your mattress isn't supporting you, it's time to move on.
Peps' Pan-India campaign '#Some Breakups are necessary'' features three ad films centered around a "breakup" narrative with old mattresses.
The first series shows a woman voicing her frustration in what seems like a breakup conversation with her partner only to reveal, in a surprising twist, that she's addressing her old, unsupportive mattress. This highlights the issue of false comfort claims in the industry.
The second series released today continues this theme, which will be followed by 'Sorry, But Not Sorry," to be released next week.
Characters in these ads amusingly explain why they're "leaving" their old mattresses, whether due to outgrowing their comfort or finding better sleep elsewhere. Together, these ads cleverly use relatable relationship tropes to urge consumers to upgrade to a Peps mattress for genuine support.
The Peps campaign continues to bust myths about coir and foam mattresses through simple narratives that connect emotionally. By narrating that Spring is King, Peps repositions Spring mattress range, which is powered by advanced features like the Marvellous Middle Advantage and Zero Disturbance Technology, as the true ally in delivering deep, undisturbed sleep and full-body support.
In an age where sleep is often sacrificed and misunderstood, this new campaign brings attention back to the real hero of rest: a well-engineered mattress. From supporting spinal health to adapting to every curve of the body, Peps Spring Mattresses address everyday consumer frustrations while promising consistent
sleep quality
and no more partner disturbances, sagging.
G. Shankar Ramm
, managing director and co-founder, Peps Industries, speaking about the campaign, said, 'At Peps, we've always believed that sleep is personal and non-negotiable. Unfortunately, many people don't realise how much their mattress affects their physical and mental well-being. Our new campaign reminds them, humorously and honestly, that if your mattress isn't supporting you, it's time to say goodbye. For Indian sleepers, Spring is still king.'
The campaign was conceptualised by Brand Consultant Renuka Jaypal in collaboration with South-based filmmaker duo Athreya Arabbhi and Avinash Hariharan.
Renuka Jaypal, brand director, said, 'We wanted to dramatise a universal frustration: staying stuck with something that no longer serves you. And that's where we came up with this relatable messaging to the audience'
Launched across Hindi, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam, the ads are currently live on Peps' official digital platforms including YouTube and Instagram.

Manipur, his tortured, mesmerising muse
The one engagement of the many that I had with Ratan Thiyam that had history revolving around it was on October 30, 1984. I recall sitting with Ratan at a shoddy restaurant in Bhubaneswar, as we together translated into English his song 'Dharamkshetra Kurukshetra', sung at the close of the prologue by the flagbearers in his play Chakravyuha, now considered a classic of modern Indian theatre. The play was scheduled to be staged the next evening at an East Zone Theatre Festival sponsored by the Sangeet Natak Akademi. I was part of a national jury asked to select from the lot one play, or maybe a couple at the most, for a national festival of young directors to be held at New Delhi a few months later. The performance needed a synopsis in English for the viewers, none of whom knew a word of Meiteilon (or Manipuri), a language that belongs to the Tibeto-Burman group and is radically different from the languages in the Indian mainstream. What else was radically different? The visuals: Ratan was an excellent painter and designer in his own right. The soundscape: with the dominance of cymbals, conch shells, and the single-string Manipuri lute pena. The rich dance movements: the delicate, slow movements of the Vaishnava raasa woven together (and clashing at the same time) with the rhythmed violence of the Kuki-Zo martial practices. This complex presentation mode also told a complex story, reinterpreting the Hindu epic in a way that could not be conveyed in a summary of tight, compressed verbal text. Ratan had suggested that a translation of that one song, sung by the flagbearers in a war scene, could convey something of the complexity of meaning—for, at the end of it all, the play bodied forth and meant Manipur, as it was then (and worse now).

Metro In Dino 3 Weeks India Box Office: Anurag Basu's movie gradually moves towards Rs 50 crore net club after poor start
Metro... In Dino, directed by Anurag Basu and starring Ali Fazal, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Nina Gupta, Anupam Kher, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma and others, has ended its 3rd week at the Indian box office on a slow but steady note, as has been the case for the film throughout its run. After a slow Rs 3.25 crore net start, it seemed as though there will be no way the movie will be able to manage even decent numbers. Dino Did Well To Hold Its Own Amidst Competition With Jurassic World: Rebirth and F1 doing the business that they were, and with Superman and a couple of other reasonably sized Bollywood films like Maalik and Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan hitting theatres immediate after, it looked like the movie would get completely sandwiched by its competition. That however didn't happen to be the case as Dino stood its ground, week after week. It netted Rs 25.45 crore in week 1 and dropped by less than 40 percent in week 2, as it collected Rs 16.25 crore. In week 3, the movie has added Rs 6.65 crore. These are excellent numbers considering that blockbuster Saiyaara hit the screens in this week. The Day Wise Net India Collections Of Dino Are As Under Particulars India Net Collection Week 1 Rs 25.45 crore Week 2 Rs 16.25 crore 3rd Friday Rs 1 crore 3rd Saturday Rs 1.70 crore 3rd Sunday Rs 2 crore 3rd Monday Rs 50 lakh 3rd Tuesday Rs 60 lakh 3rd Wednesday Rs 45 lakh 3rd Thursday Rs 40 lakh Total Rs 48.35 crore in 3 weeks Dino Looks To End Its India Run Netting Rs 55 Crore With Rs 48.35 crore net after 3 weeks, the musical romance is just inches away from the Rs 50 crore mark. It is likely to end its run in the vicinity of Rs 55 crore net (Rs 66 crore gross). The overseas collections are expected to end at an above-expected USD 1.4 million (12 crore gross), meaning that the movie will end up with a gross total of Rs 78 crore. This is not a solid or even a good number. But it shall be looked at respectfully since it opened to numbers where even a Rs 40 crore worldwide looked like a distant dream. Dino May Barely Breakeven BUT... Due to high production costs, the movie may just about breakeven at the box office. Had the costs been managed well, this could have been a profitable movie. All is not lost as T-series stands to gain big from the film's music. The music of Dino is a bonafied hit. Dino In Theatres Dino still plays in select theatres across the globe. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
