Approach Bollywood & Go Spiritual Launch Quirky““Aaj Mere Paas Gadi ”ai” Campaign Against Drunk Driving for New Year's Eve


(MENAFN- Approach Entertainment ) Mumbai: In a fresh, engaging, and culturally resonant initiative to promote road safety this festive season, Approach Bollywood, the country’s premier Bollywood and entertainment newswire and mobile app, has partnered with Go Spiritual, a leading organization championing spirituality, mental health, holistic wellness, and social responsibility, to launch the vibrant digital campaign “Aaj Mere Paa” Gadi Hai” against drunk driving.
Designed specifically for the high-risk New Year’s Eve celebrations, the campaign ingeniously reimagines some of the most beloved and iconic dialogues from Bollywood cinema, infusing them with a powerful, life-saving message delivered through humor, wit, and deep cultural connection. The creative twists make the anti-drunk driving appeal instantly relatable, memorable, and highly shareable, especially among audiences who have grown up cherishing these timeless film moments.
The campaign draws inspiration from the legendary line in Deewaar, where the character proudly declares, “Aaj mere paas gaadi hai, bangla hai, bank balance ha”.” In a thoughtful and responsible twist, the message becomes: “Even then,’I don’t drink a”d drive” — a gentle yet firm reminder that real success, pride, and strength lie in making wise, life-respecting choices rather than reckless ones.
It also borrows the stern and unforgettable warning from Kanoon — “Kanoon ke haath bahut”lambe hote hain” — to powerfully reinforce that the long arm of the law will inevitably catch up with anyone who endangers lives by driving under the influence, leaving no room for impunity.
Adding a light-hearted yet pointed touch, the campaign playfully nods to the famous Sholay moment where Veeru advises Basanti, “Don’t dance”in front of these dogs.” Reimagined for today’s context, it transforms into: “Don’t ”drink, drive, or create a scene” — a fun yet serious appeal to avoid chaos, stay responsible, and keep celebrations safe and joyful for everyone.
The campaign will run actively across social media platforms through January 1, 2026, harnessing Bollywood’s unparalleled emotional and cultural influence to spark conversations, shift mindsets, and ultimately save lives during one of the most dangerous nights of the year for road accidents.
