Solution
Our ad raised an important question ‘Why Is Laundry A Woman’s Job?’ It provoked a national conversation. People stepped forward to spread the message. An unexplored everyday medium -clothing labels, were turned into advocates for gender equality. The biggest clothing brands and designers embraced it. Ariel tied up with matrimonial websites and willingness to share the load was made mandatory.
