The campaign features a series of hilarious real-life situations between the father and son duo, where the father tries to exhort his son to be more responsible.

Earlier this year, we launched a campaign to create brand awareness. Now, the objective is to be more specific and talk about the unique benefits that Medlife offers to its consumers.The consumer looks for availability, price and convenience and that's what our film communicates in a light-hearted manner. Sarcasm and carelessness between a father and son is a very relatable behavior in the Indian context. 'Lafaddu Lal' is the creative idea that binds the relationship. And, who better than Boman and Varun to play the characters."
