De Beers: Love, From Dad

Some milestones are small enough to happen in a single moment, yet meaningful enough to stay with you forever. De Beers Group’s “Love, From Dad” campaign captures one such moment through the real-life relationship between acclaimed actor Pankaj Tripathi and his daughter, Aashi. Created for Father’s Day, the emotional short film centres on Aashi’s second ear piercing — a simple act of personal choice that becomes a tender reflection of growing independence, trust and the bond between a father and daughter.

What makes the campaign particularly intimate is the decision to bring their real relationship on screen. Rather than presenting an idealised version of fatherhood, the film draws from the familiarity of everyday parenting: knowing when to guide, when to support and when to let your child make their own choices. A natural diamond becomes part of this story as a symbol of a bond that evolves with time without ever losing its strength.

The campaign extended beyond the film, coming to life across more than 50 De Beers partner retail stores in Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai and Hyderabad through in-store photography and memory-led experiences. By bringing the emotional narrative into physical retail spaces, “Love, From Dad” transformed a Father’s Day campaign into a broader celebration of the moments that mark a daughter’s journey towards independence — and the quiet, unwavering love that stays beside her through it all.
