This Diwali, OnePlus is lighting more than just lamps- it’s igniting a movement grounded in hope, responsibility, and the future of India’s environment through its evocative new campaign titled “Light a Light, Plant a Plant.” The initiative is a beautiful blend of tradition and sustainability, inviting everyone to make the festive season brighter not only through light but also through life by planting trees across the country.
A Celebration Rooted in Responsibility
At its heart, the campaign embodies OnePlus’ enduring community spirit and its commitment to impact beyond technology. Collaborating with the iconic Bollywood actor Jackie Shroff once again- who shares a long-standing passion for greener cities- and partnering with the JK Foundation, OnePlus has pledged to plant 1 lakh saplings all over India this Diwali. This initiative is a meaningful continuation of the brand’s prior effort of planting 20,000 trees back in 2019, marking a sustained dedication to environmental stewardship.
Jackie Shroff’s involvement serves as a natural extension of this vision, bringing warmth, credibility, and inspiration to the campaign. His presence in the campaign film adds an emotional layer, drawing on his personal advocacy for greener urban spaces and his deep connection with Indian communities.
The Film: A Simple Yet Profound Message
The campaign’s hero film carries a heartfelt narrative set against the backdrop of Diwali celebrations. It gently pivots from the customary act of lighting lamps to a call for planting saplings- a metaphor that beautifully captures the idea of nurturing both the present and future. The message is elegantly simple: “This Diwali, as we light up our homes, let’s also plant a plant.” It’s not just an invitation but a movement to intertwine joy with responsibility.
The film thoughtfully contrasts the radiant glow of festive lights with the hopeful growth of planted saplings. It encapsulates the essence of Diwali- not just as a festival of lights but as a festival of hope and renewal, inviting audiences to deepen their celebration by contributing to the environment.

Linking Technology with Environmental Commitment
For OnePlus, the campaign goes beyond the festival. It subtly reinforces the brand’s philosophy that powerful technology and a healthier planet are inseparable goals. The clean, fast, and efficient experience that users cherish in OnePlus’ OxygenOS mirrors the company’s aspiration for cleaner air and greener neighborhoods.
Through symbolic storytelling, the campaign draws this parallel, emphasizing that a tech-forward lifestyle can coexist harmoniously with ecological awareness. This dual focus positions OnePlus as a brand with a conscience, speaking directly to India’s growing population of environmentally conscious consumers.
Leadership Voices: Vision and Passion
Ishita Grover, Director of Marketing, OnePlus India, shares her thoughts on the campaign: “Our ‘Light a Light, Plant a Plant’ campaign is a heartfelt celebration of joy and hope this Diwali. This initiative is about shared responsibility toward a brighter future. By combining the spirit of giving with sustainability, we want to spark a movement where celebration and renewed hope for a greener planet go hand in hand.”
Her words capture the campaign’s dual aspiration- creating moments of warmth and happiness while fostering a deeper commitment to environmental care.
Execution and Impact: Going Beyond the Screen
The campaign’s execution is deliberate and thoughtful. Through the JK Foundation and local partners, the sapling plantations will prioritize native species and ensure ongoing care to maximize survival, reflecting a long-term vision rather than a one-off gesture. OnePlus plans to provide periodic updates to its community, fostering a transparent and collective journey toward greener India.
The festival campaign is also supported by a robust multi-channel presence, including digital platforms, social media, and community engagement initiatives, ensuring that the message reaches a wide and engaged audience.
Inviting a Movement: From Light to Life
“Light a Light, Plant a Plant” is more than a slogan- it’s an invitation to all Indians to make this Diwali unforgettable by making a positive environmental impact. The initiative seamlessly integrates the joy of tradition with the promise of a sustainable tomorrow, emphasizing that real celebration looks beyond the moment to nurture enduring hope and growth.
OnePlus, through the heartfelt participation of Jackie Shroff and strategic partnership with JK Foundation, reminds us that every light we kindle this Diwali can spark a green revolution. The campaign reimagines festive celebration as a shared commitment to our planet's future, inspiring millions to embrace responsibility alongside joy.
This Diwali, celebration and sustainability shine together- thanks to the vision and spirit behind OnePlus’ “Light a Light, Plant a Plant.”
