This Independence Day, Zeeba Basmati Rice, from the house of Supple Tek, is stirring emotions with a film that blends the aroma of biryani with the essence of India’s freedom struggle. Conceptualised and executed by Maximus Collabs, the campaign draws a unique parallel — just as a perfect biryani takes time, care, and unity to prepare, so did India’s long journey to independence.
Zeeba: Biryani as a Symbol of Unity and Sacrifice
Zeeba’s premium basmati rice is aged for two years before it reaches your plate. This slow, deliberate process is compared to the patience and perseverance of freedom fighters who worked tirelessly for decades. The spices and layers of biryani represent India’s diversity, where every element plays its role in creating something unforgettable — just like the collective effort that won us freedom.

Bridging Generations Over a Meal
The heart of the film is a simple powerful dining table conversation between two generations — one that lived through the struggle, and one that now enjoys its fruits. While their perspectives differ, mutual respect shines through. The campaign urges young Indians, especially Gen Z, to look beyond viral trends and truly understand the deeper meaning of Independence Day.
More Than a Reel — A Real Conversation
Director Manisha Singh of Maximus Collabs puts it beautifully: “The dining table can be a bridge between generations, and a good meal can open hearts and minds.” The film encourages slowing down, sharing stories, and cherishing the sacrifices that made our freedom possible.
Closing Thoughts: Independence Day campaign
Zeeba Basmati’s Independence Day campaign isn’t just about rice or biryani — it’s about reminding us that freedom, like a great dish, is the result of patience, unity, and love. This year, as we celebrate, let’s not just wave flags online but also share stories, meals, and gratitude with those who came before us.
