These new partnerships come as the agency secured multiple awards for CelcomDigi - partnered with M&C Saatchi, Cuckoo and Jobstreet at the Marketing Excellence Awards (MEA), underscoring its strategy in effective brand engagement. 

“We’re incredibly proud of the talent we have at Naga DDB Tribal. These recent wins have shown our versatility in delivering work that meets the needs of clients from diverse categories. The recognition we received at the MEA and our recent client wins across blue chip and FMCG sectors are a testament to our commitment to creativity, effectiveness, and innovation,” said Farrah Harith McPherson, chief growth officer of Naga DDB Tribal.

“We’re excited to carry this momentum into the coming year as we continue to partner with clients and shape Malaysia’s advertising landscape," added McPherson. 

This Deepavali, the agency worked in partnership with CelcomDigi to release a brand film titled "Inbam" celebrating the festival of lights. 

Created together with M&C Saatchi, "Inbam" explores the bond between generations through the story of two sisters Anjali and Lavinya. They embark on a mission to rekindle their grandmother's joy, reflecting on the profound happiness she experienced while making saris with her closest friends. As the sisters strive to revive these cherished memories, the film captures the essence of familial connections. 

The film is directed by Think Tank and encourages Malaysians to reflect on the traditions they hold dear and the intergenerational bonds that sustain them. At the same time, it invites viewers to see Deepavali as an opportunity to reconnect with loved ones and celebrate shared joy. 

“We hope this story resonates emotionally, prompting the audience to reflect on their own values and the bonds shared across generations—especially during Deepavali,” said Vix Chandra, executive creative director of Naga DDB Tribal.

“When we recognise this connection, we understand that it’s not just our celebrations that shine bright, but our inner joy, our Inbam, ignited by the relationships we nurture," added Chandra.
