About Khush Raho Series

The first ad campaign in Pakistan that followed a narrative style, Kenwood’s Khush Raho series played on the big idea of the perfection of machines and imperfections of people.

This series created a new direction for the industry at the time. The Khush Raho series wasn't just a collection of ads, it was a shift in the Pakistani creative landscape.

‍

Its impact was solidified when it took home the Campaign of the Year award at the PAS (Original Effies).

Perfect machines and imperfection of life

Throwback to 2014 the series that started a new era not only for Arey Wah but the entire Advertisement Industry.

Kenwood’s Khush Raho Campaign is a case study in the possibilities you can explore when you are given a brand to build from scratch. The campaign tapped into the simple big idea  “Perfect machines and imperfection of life”

One of the few instances a brand didn’t rely on overpromising but stood for an insight that was not only true but a universal experience.

By leaning into human flaws and relatable humor, it shifted the entire Pakistani creative landscape by promising a consistent tone that set the brand apart while using local talent. 

It remains a masterclass in narrative storytelling and a proud moment for our industry, for winning four awards including Campaign of the Year at the PAS Awards (now known as the Effie Pakistan Awards). 

It didn’t just build a brand, it quietly raised the bar for the entire industry.
