New Delhi, November, 2026.
On the occasion of National Candy Day, the
Dharampal Satyapal Group (DS Group), a leading FMCG conglomerate and
multi-business corporation, announced the 2026 edition of Pulse Candy Day
campaign. Marking the brand’s annual national celebration, this year’s campaign
features yet another innovative, technology-driven initiative. This edition of
the campaign introduces an immersive, space-themed game. Players control the
game using their hands and body tracked by their smartphone camera, which
seamlessly directs them to a dedicated microsite www.pulsecandyday.com.
Aimed at Gen Z, young adults and
mobile-first consumers, with a bite-sized format designed to encourage replay
and social sharing, the game will run from 3rd to 10th November, one week
around National Candy Day. It invites users on a 60-second interstellar
adventure to collect Pulse candies scattered across space while avoiding decoy
candies, asteroids and other celestial obstacles. The campaign utilises
camera-based motion and gesture tracking, which responds to the user's hand and
body movements in real time. The experience runs directly on mobile browsers,
with no headset, controller or additional hardware required.
Arvind Kumar, Senior General Manager,
Marketing, Confectionery, DS Group, commented, "Every National Candy Day,
we are reminded of how much love people have for Pulse Candy and we want to
celebrate that Deewangi with them in a way they will remember. Innovation has
always been at the heart of Pulse Candy Day and each year we push the
boundaries through cutting-edge technology, while keeping the experience simple
enough for anyone to enjoy. In the past, our fans have screamed and blown for
Pulse candy and this year they will move for Pulse, chasing it across space
with just their phones.”
Pulse Candy Day 2026 campaign strengthens
its connection with audiences who seek interactive and shareable digital
experiences. The initiative reinforces the brand's youthful, experimental and
technology-forward personality and continued commitment to making National
Candy Day a celebration of Pulse Candy.
