AC failing? Fenesta’s funny summer ad via The Titus Upputuru Company offers a cooler solution

As the country swelters under an unforgiving summer where ceiling fans slow to a crawl and AC remotes double as emergency devices, Fenesta, India’s No. 1 windows and doors brand, delivers both comic relief and a smart solution. Under its ongoing ‘Fine. Finer. Fenesta’ campaign, the brand has launched a light-hearted new summer film titled “Beat the Heat with Fenesta”, highlighting the role of effective insulation and energy-efficient fenestration in enhancing everyday comfort.

Created by The Titus Upputuru Company and directed by Titus Upputuru, the film captures the all-too-familiar chaos of an Indian summer at home. Set in a relatable household scene, it opens with a man struggling to stay cool while working from home – wiping away sweat, fidgeting with the AC, and resorting to creative (and futile) hacks. In a hilariously absurd turn, he’s soon seen sitting in a bathtub full of water, attempting to work on his laptop. That’s when the punchline drops with perfect comic timing: “Running out of ideas to stay cool? Switch to Fenesta Windows and Doors.”

The film smartly blends humour with a functional message – you don’t need a bathtub to beat the heat, just better windows and doors.

Susmita Nag, Head of Marketing at Fenesta, said: “We’re always exploring creative ways to communicate the everyday comfort and value Fenesta brings to homes. This film humorously reflects what many of us face during peak summers when even ACs seem to fail, often due to poor-quality windows and doors. Through playful storytelling, we highlight how choosing the finest Fenesta can make all the difference.”

Upputuru added: “Fenesta products are a great solution to block out the heat and keep interiors cool. This was a joy to direct—we wanted the humour to feel unexpected and organic. The final shot, with the duck staring at the protagonist’s bizarre bathtub moment, still cracks us up!”

As Indian households increasingly seek smarter solutions that merge design, functionality, and sustainability, Fenesta continues to lead with offerings that deliver on all fronts. This campaign is a reminder that the simplest choices—like upgrading your windows and doors—can create the biggest impact on daily comfort.

Now live across Fenesta’s digital platforms—YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn—the film invites audiences to enjoy a laugh and a useful tip this summer.
