Mumbai: As Valentine's Day panic sets in, Flipkart comes to the rescue with a playful digital campaign called ‘Blame it on Flipkart.’ Conceptualised by 22feet Tribal Worldwide, the campaign playfully targets procrastinators and forgetful romantics who wait until the last minute to buy the perfect gift for their partners. Stepping in as the perfect wingman, Flipkart ensures a stress-free, love-filled celebration for its customers.

While Valentine's Day is a special occasion, many of us tend to overthink or miss out on gift-giving until the very last minute. This often leads to frantic online searches and last-minute orders, leading to anxiousness about potential delivery delays that might impact our romantic relationships. That's where Flipkart steps in, wearing the cape and saving the day by acting as a saviour for forgetful lovers.

Sharing his thoughts on the campaign, Flipkart Sr director, brand marketing Pratik Shetty said, “At Flipkart, we understand that panic of forgetting a special day and the last-minute hustle to make it right. Therefore, on Valentine’s Day, as searches for last minute gifts surged, we were happy to partner with 22feet Tribal Worldwide to come up with a creative solution that helped our customers get their partner’s gift of choice, while Flipkart took the blame for their last-minute order. The one-day delivery feature was the cherry on the cake.”

22feet Tribal Worldwide creative head Vishnu Srivatsav said, “We wanted a human take on Valentine’s Day that wasn’t about life but about the little things that happen in love. Like forgetting to buy a gift. In an otherwise crowded day, we needed to stand out and yet be relevant to the brand and its benefits. Fortunately, we hit upon an idea to both help people and entertain them.”
