The film opens up with a voice over talking about the various doubts people in India have, with regard to the vaccine. It urges people to make use of Google’s search engine to clear out all their inhibitions, big or small, with authentic information. 
 
Bhawika Chhabra, chief business officer, Toaster said, “In these difficult times, I believe that brands must focus their energies on doing meaningful work and communication that can truly help people. Google has already done some remarkable work by contributing to the Covid fight in India and enhancing its products to provide specific and verified information. This campaign is another step in the right direction. We partnered with Google to create this campaign in over eight languages for TV and digital. The campaign answered vaccine related questions and encouraged users to ask any questions that they might have.”
