Powerful New Nike Ad Featuring Indian Sportswomen Is An Ode To The Unstoppable Girl Power

The powerful new Nike ad featuring inspiring Indian sportswomen and Deepika Padukone is an ode to the unstoppable girl power that will  give you the right motivation to go, Da Da Ding.

“Sport has taught me how to survive! It has taught me how to fight! It has made me unstoppable!”

These are the inspiring words of ace actor Deepika Padukone in the new Nike ad that will give you an instant pump of Adrenaline rush. Deepika Padukone is one actor who has never shied away from accepting her weaknesses, fighting them, touching the lowest point, picking herself up and bolting past the checkered flag.

Deepika’s long battle with depression is no news to us. Also, before films happened, Deepika had been a national level Badminton champion. In the latest advertisement for Nike, Deepika reveals how her father’s teachings and being an active sportsperson herself helped her to fight the silent killer.

The empowering video shows women playing sports in each and every frame. From squash player Joshna Chinappa, to hockey player Rani Rampal; from cricketers Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandana and Shubhlakshi Sharma to footballer Jyoti Ann Burrett, each frame captures the fierce, passionate, and inspiring women athletes as they are. The video doesn’t sexualize women and leaves a strong legacy for other brands to follow – focus on the spirit of the athletes, their power, their coming together, and not their legs and butts.
