Ranbir Kapoor replaces noise with wearable intelligence in Gabit's new ad
Gabit has unveiled the second film in its ad campaign, featuring Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor . In a sharp, stylized narrative, Kapoor discovers that the smart ring doesn't just track steps or sleep, it acts like a gym coach, nutritionist, sleep expert and health guide rolled into one. All without saying a word. The Gabit Smart Ring is designed around four key pillars of health: Fitness, Nutrition, Stress and Sleep, the core drivers of longevity. It tracks your body with clinical-grade precision and turns that data into clear, simple insights you can act on. Built to be worn 24/7, the ring is lightweight, water-resistant, and designed to disappear into your daily life while helping you take full control of it. In the first ad, Kapoor showed how the Gabit Smart Ring keeps health on your mind. It becomes a quiet nudge that helps you make better choices throughout the day, enabling you to live healthier and longer. The second film takes it further. This time, we see how effortless the tracking really is. No conscious effort. No second-guessing. The ring works quietly in the background while you go about your life. The film builds on Gabit's signature tone: witty, relatable and grounded in real life. Kapoor delivers the punchline straight to the camera: 'Ab saare health experts hai, iss ek, Gabit ring mein.' With a simple taking off the ring, all the chaos disappears, showing how the Gabit Smart Ring replaces guesswork and noise with real, wearable intelligence. Gabit's founder Gaurav Gupta adds, 'We wanted to show how powerful the Gabit Smart Ring really is and the film does exactly that. With Ranbir's effortless screen presence, it brings our vision to life.' The ad is now live across YouTube, Instagram, and digital platforms. Watch the video here:
