MADDYS 2025 — Awesome Ideas vs Artificial Intelligence

For Chennai’s biggest ad awards, we needed a theme that felt fresh, relevant, and rooted in the world of ideas. That’s how AI vs AI was born. It played on a trending term—Artificial Intelligence—but really stood for something timeless: Awesome Ideas vs Awesome Ideas. Because in advertising, that’s always been the real competition.

We built the visual identity around the Eye from the MADDYS and Ad Club logos—reimagined as the Eye of Awesome Ideas. Inspired by the Tamil phrase “Suthi podu kannu paatudum” (when something’s good, every eye turns), we created a system that celebrated sharp thinking across every touchpoint.

From teasers to T-shirts, every line carried confidence, wit, and bite. The response? Loud, proud, and industry-wide

MADDYS 2025 wasn’t just a campaign—it was a creative statement.

And we were proud to lead it.
