It seeks to present Tendulkar as a concerned and a responsible father rather than a prolific cricketer.
The commercial, conceptualised by BBDO and directed by Rising Sun Productions, is a series of vignettes of the traditional rituals around education and religion in a child’s life.

There is a third ceremony as well. Tendulkar then steps in as a father sending his daughter to school stating that the parent can guarantee a secured education for the child. The TVC’s message is that when it comes to education for children, even the world’s greatest cricketer comes across as just another concerned parent. The campaign targets young parents and impresses on them the need to start saving for their child’s education as soon as he or she is born.
