Cultural Sensitivity: Campaigns must resonate with festivals (Diwali, Holi), regional languages, and social values.
Digital Dominance: India’s 800M+ internet users make social media (YouTube, Instagram, WhatsApp) critical.
Price Sensitivity: Tiered pricing and small pack options cater to diverse income groups.
P&G’s photos and ads often act as "moves" in this game, blending humor, emotion, and practicality.

Cultural Nuances: Missteps (e.g., inappropriate humor in ads) can backfire.
Competition: Local brands like Nivea and Parachute often outperform in regional markets.
Regulatory Hurdles: Strict guidelines on children’s advertising (e.g., CCI regulations).

AI-Driven Personalization: Use data to predict regional preferences (e.g., rural vs. urban ads).
Sustainability as a Game Mechanic: Highlight eco-friendly products (e.g., Tide’s “Green Packaging” contests).
Collaborations with Indian Startups: Partner with gaming apps (e.g., Dream11) for cross-promotions.
