Liberty Unveils Women’s Day Brand Video ‘Girls Breaking Free’: Celebrates Courage, Pride, and Empowerment

Liberty General Insurance launches its Women’s Day brand video, ‘Girls Breaking Free,’ a compelling narrative that champions the essence of pride, and empowerment. This initiative is set to leave a lasting impact, symbolizing Liberty’s commitment to Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion beyond just a single day.

 

The brand film breathes new life into a very colloquially used phrase ‘Haath Se Nikal Gayi.’ Traditionally laden with negative connotations, the term is reimagined to honor women who dare to defy societal norms and pursue their own paths with independence and self-assurance. It’s a tribute to those who exhibit the courage to be their own person, embodying responsibility, ambition, and the spirit of freedom.

 

Reflecting on the campaign, Mr. Parag Ved, CEO & Whole Time Director, Liberty General Insurance, expressed, “The antiquated notion of ‘Haath Se Nikal Gai’ has historically served to undermine women’s autonomy, suggesting a life under patriarchal oversight. This brand film flips this narrative, celebrating it as an emblem of liberation, independence, and the rightful control over one’s destiny.”

 

“More than just altering perceptions, through this video, we aim to contribute to a broader dialogue about gender equality, the dismantling of traditional gender roles, and the importance of creating a society where everyone, regardless of gender, has the opportunity to thrive based on their talents and aspirations. It’s about recognizing the strength and potential of women to lead, innovate, and inspire change within our communities and industries, Mr. Ved added.

 

With the release of ‘Girls Breaking Free, created by ‘Water Communications’, Liberty General Insurance transcends conventional celebrations of International Women’s Day, proposing a reflective and forward-thinking interpretation of what genuine empowerment and equality entail in the contemporary world.

Pepperfry’s #SimplyWoman Campaign Inspires Women to Embrace Their True Selves This Women’s Day.

Pepperfry proudly launches the #SimplyWoman campaign, inviting women to share candid moments of their imperfect selves. This initiative champions the essence of womanhood, celebrating vulnerability, flaws, and the journey towards doing one’s best. Join Pepperfry as they redefine the narrative, embracing authenticity and acknowledging that being flawed is simply being human. In a society where women are often bestowed with titles like Superwoman, Tiger Mom, and Multitasker, originally intended as compliments, these labels have morphed into burdensome expectations rather than empowering identities. Imperfection is inherent to humanity – it’s natural to stumble, to falter, and to seek support. Through the #SimplyWoman campaign, we hope to inspire women to embrace their flaws, support each other, and find strength in their vulnerability. Together, let’s celebrate the beauty of being imperfectly perfect.
