Our latest campaign, ‘Perform Big, Silently’, takes another leap towards our efforts to recognize the success of Indian women. Striving silently in their respective fields they have made our nation proud and our campaign lauds their accomplishments. Similarly, our new range of washing machines champions performance in the background without making any noise. Haier salutes the spirit and achievements of these performers who made it big without making noise.”

Storyboard: The new campaign reflects how the brand mirrors its values and convictions with the real silent performers of India who are not swayed by camera flashes, red carpets, and are focused to ‘Perform Big, Silently’. The TVCs give center stage to women achievers and highlight how they have pushed boundaries to bring pride to India on international platform. Their commitment and hard work coincide with Haier's philosophy of ‘Inspired Living’.

Talking about the new TVC, Mr. Raj Kamble, Founder & CCO, Famous Innovation said, “The consumer durables category is cluttered with celebrity-driven communication, relying on Bollywood and Cricket’s fame to sell products. However, we believe that the Indian consumer has been ready to move forward with new idols - people who perform big, silently. That’s why we are celebrating personalities from various fields like mountain climbing, combat training, chess, and downhill mountain biking. Haier has stood behind these silent performers consistently. Their spirit is perfectly exemplified in Haier's new washing machines that deliver the best performance without making any noise.”

This is the second series of TVCs launched by Haier under the larger campaign theme of ‘Silent Performers’, first introduced by the brand in 2019 with India's ace sportswomen - Dipa Karmakar, Hima Das, and Simranjit Kaur.
