Bandhan Mutual Fund – The Journey of Trust (25 Years Film)

Celebrating India’s journey from saving to investing — a tactile film that turns finance into a human story.


When Bandhan Mutual Fund turned 25, the ask was simple: celebrate how they helped everyday Indians grow. We turned that brief into a warm, paper-crafted film — a story of transformation from gullaks and bachat to SIPs and confidence.



About the approach

Visual language

Cutout collage — scanned textures, torn edges and layered paper to create a scrapbook aesthetic with real-world touch and age.

Animation

Stop-motion inspired — intentionally jittery, frame-by-frame character motion to maintain tactile charm and human imperfection.

Tone

Whimsical, nostalgic and relatable — making finance feel personal and achievable.

The hero narrative follows Raju bhaiya’s journey — small, consistent steps (SIP) turning into confidence, dignity and upward mobility. Design and motion were kept intentionally imperfect to preserve the handmade feeling.
