Celebrating Every Parent: Godrej L’Affaire’s New Campaign Sparks a Call To #BeAPetParent
MUMBAI, India, July 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — National Parents’ Day is an opportunity to honour parents who have been pillars of love, guidance and sacrifice that define parenthood in Indian culture. It is a day to honour the nurturing spirit that shapes homes and lives. Celebrating that spirit, Godrej Industries Group (GIG), through its brand agnostic lifestyle platform Godrej L’Affaire, launches ‘#BeAPetParent’ — a campaign that shines a light on heartfelt stories of the quiet joys of being a pet parent. Through the campaign, pet parents at Godrej Industries Group draw viewers into introspection that mirrors the emotional highs of raising a child; only this time, it is through the lens of a furry companion.

The film follows genuine pet parent experiences and testimonies as they reflect on the quiet, beautiful chaos of being a pet parent. From cleaning up midnight messes to celebrating small wins like a pet responding to their name, the storytelling captures the unsaid gestures that define parenthood. There is humour in the honesty, as one parent recalls, “When he was young, I thought he was constantly hungry… I ended up overfeeding him!” reminding the pet parents that parenting is not perfect, it is a journey of trial, love, and learning on the go. Whether it is the joy of seeing a pet take on its owner’s last name or the comfort of having the pet by it’s owner’s side during life’s biggest moments, the film evokes a familiar warmth. Just like traditional parents, pet parents feel the same pride, responsibility, and emotional bond; where family is not defined by species, but by love shared, mistakes embraced, and milestones celebrated together.
Commenting on the campaign, Sujit Patil, Chief Communications Officer, Godrej Industries Group, said, “At Godrej L’Affaire, we have always believed that storytelling should reflect the world in all its depth and diversity. We tried to move beyond the conventional narratives of Parents’ Day and spotlight the equally meaningful bond shared by pet parents – because sometimes, the truest forms of family are found in the most unexpected places.”
This campaign is driven by Godrej L’Affaire in collaboration with Godrej Ninja—a pet care brand from Godrej Pet Care offering scientifically formulated dog food designed to enhance gut health and immunity.
Chirag Aga, Head of Marketing, Godrej Pet Care, added, “Being a pet parent is one of life’s most rewarding experiences. Just like any parent we also seek the best for our furry companions. At Godrej Pet Care, we bring this belief to life through scientifically backed, high-quality nutrition that ensures our pets lead healthy, happy lives. This campaign echoes that sentiment, reminding us that for many animals, your care, your love, and your home could be their whole world.”
