Driven by Purpose, Guided by Love: SBI Life's #PapaHaiNa Film Captures Father's Heartfelt Journey of Keeping Promises

MUMBAI, India, June 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Fathers often stand as the silent anchors of the family—offering strength, stability, and unwavering commitment. They seamlessly balance personal and professional responsibilities, quietly prioritising their family's well-being and future. This Father's Day, SBI Life Insurance presents 'Papa Bhooltey Nahin' under its #PapaHainNa digital property — a heartfelt DVC that reflects the quiet strength and lasting promises of fatherhood. Inspired by everyday moments of affection, discipline, and resilience, the film is a heartfelt tribute to fathers who, despite the many roles they play, never forget the promises made to their loved ones.

The narrative opens in the professional worlds of three fathers — a hockey coach, a forest officer, and an architect — each confidently leading in their domain. Whether instructing a striker, briefing rangers, or supervising a road site, their hands take centre stage, symbolising direction, discipline, and determination.

In a seamless match cut, the same hands shift from leading at work to caring at home — cradling a baby, waving a toy wand, admiring a tower of building blocks. The contrast is subtle yet powerful: fathers who command with authority also nurture with love. The transitions capture how effortlessly they move between roles, driven by unwavering commitment. The film closes with a vibrant mosaic of fathers — doctors, farmers, firefighters, teachers — shown not just in their professions, but in their most meaningful role: being a father. The message is clear — "Jo apne iraade aur apno se kiye vaade kabhi bhooltey nahin… woh Papa hain na."

Speaking on the launch of the digital video, Mr. Ravindra Sharma, Chief of Brand, Corporate Communication and CSR, SBI Life Insurance, said, "Fathers are often the quiet constants in our lives — steady, selfless, and deeply committed. They may not always express their emotions aloud, but they never forget the promises made to their loved ones. 'Papa Bhooltey Nahin', our latest digital film under SBI Life's #PapaHainNa digital property, is a tribute to this silent formidable strength —the fathers who live their lives balancing responsibilities and relationships with unwavering dedication. At SBI Life, we believe in the power of purposeful living — of doing not just for oneself, but for those who matter most. Through this DVC, we salute fathers who embody our brand philosophy of 'Apne Liye, Apno Ke Liye' — living every moment with intent, love, and lasting commitment."

"At Dentsu Creative Isobar, we're honoured to partner with SBI Life once again to add deeper meaning to the essence of 'Papa Hain Na' with our inspiring Father's Day campaign, 'Papa Bhooltey Nahin'," says Sahil Shah, President, Dentsu Creative Isobar. "Through this film, we capture how purpose and presence beautifully align, as fathers build the nation while staying deeply rooted in the promises made to their loved ones."

SBI Life once again sparks conversation around the everyday strength of fatherhood — not as a grand gesture, but as a lifelong commitment. Aligned with its brand philosophy, the campaign reinforces that real protection comes from showing up — consistently, quietly, and wholeheartedly. Rolled out across digital and social platforms, the digital video evokes the emotional security and gratitude fathers bring into our lives.
