Bahamas and Salman Khan Invite You to Take It Easy in ‘Stress Ko Do Rest’
Bahamas, the youth-centric brand from Relaxo Footwears, has launched its latest campaign featuring brand ambassador Salman Khan. Titled “Stress Ko Do Rest,” the campaign takes a light-hearted approach to the everyday anxieties faced by Gen Z and Millennials.
From the pressure of gaining social media likes to the looming fear of AI taking over jobs, the film taps into highly relatable scenarios. And who better to deliver the message of chilling out than Salman Khan?
A Cool Message in Chaotic Times
Whether it’s the anxiety of not being “liked enough” on Instagram, or the silent stress of keeping up with the ever-evolving digital age, the campaign strikes a chord with young audiences. The storytelling uses wit, simplicity, and a chill aesthetic to mirror real-life stress triggers—with a flip-flop twist.
Gaurav Kumaar Dua, Wholetime Director at Relaxo Footwears, summed up the spirit of the campaign:
“At Bahamas, we’ve always stood for easy comfort—not just for your feet, but for your state of mind. ‘Stress Ko Do Rest’ is a natural extension of our brand’s purpose. It’s a reminder to reset and not take life too seriously. Salman Khan brings that vibe alive effortlessly. We wanted to say it with a smile, with simplicity, and in true Bahamas style—Keep Chillin, Keep Flippin.”
Campaign Rollout: Digital, DVCs & Influencers
The integrated campaign will roll out across major digital platforms and television, backed by short-form content, influencer collaborations, and digital video commercials (DVCs). With a finger on the pulse of internet culture, it blends humor, relatability, and visual punch to ensure high recall among youth audiences.
