The Optum Zoom Happy Beats campaign brought music and mindfulness to college campuses in India in a first-of-its-kind wellness initiative.
Organized by Optum India and Zoom with Radio Mirchi, the campaign featured a custom truck, live music performances, and wellness activities in four major cities.
The campaign's highlight was a custom-designed truck that served as a performance stage and interactive zone across eight colleges in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Delhi.
Famous bands like Swastik, Kanya, and Aatma performed at colleges, offering students moments to breathe, groove, reflect, and reconnect.
The campaign aimed to address health and emotional fatigue among students through music and engaging experiences, well-attuned to the audience.
Chill Zones facilitated interactions and conversations around stress relief and self-awareness through games and activities.
Radio Mirchi hosts brought the Chill Zones to life with live shoutouts, interactions, and wellness-themed activities.
The initiative, according to Uma Ratnam Krishnan, aimed to blend music and wellness to connect with young minds, offering an immersive wellness and entertainment experience.
Faculty members also contributed perspectives on emotional wellness and the role of music in overall wellbeing, fostering a safe space for reflection and joy.
With over 10,000 students engaged and 20 million+ digital impressions, Happy Beats made a lasting impact by combining rhythm, resilience, and purpose.
