India – Tanishq, the jewellery brand from the House of Tata, has unveiled the industry’s first large-scale outdoor holo-projection at Mumbai’s Bandra Bandstand, marking the launch of its new collection — ‘Kundan Stories’.
Brought to life by Laqshya Media Group and Inventech, the installation stands 40 feet tall and uses holo-projection technology to create an open-air visual showcase. Designs from the Kundan Stories collection — including meenakari, takkar work, and stone inlay craftsmanship — appeared suspended mid-air, rendered through choreographed 3D light.
Held over two days from April 23 to 24, the activation offered visitors a rare convergence of traditional artistry and advanced projection technology. Beyond unveiling its latest collection, Tanishq introduced a new format of jewellery storytelling that blends scale, craftsmanship, and immersive media.
Commenting on the launch, Amarjeet Hudda, COO of Laqshya Media Ltd, said, “This was a chance to do something the industry had never attempted before. Tanishq gave us a full creative room, and the result is something that goes beyond regular brand launches. It’s storytelling in mid-air. For us at Laqshya, it’s a proud milestone in blending tech, media, and emotion.”
“The activation uses Holo Mesh Projection Technology, where a translucent mesh acts as a nearly invisible canvas for high-powered light mapping. Suspended in open space, it creates a surreal illusion where each design detail — from ghungroos to flowing filigree — appears to hover and move. The visuals were set to a specially composed sound design, turning the skyline into a moving story of craftsmanship and beauty. Every element was custom-built to perform in outdoor conditions, making it a true feat of execution,” added Sommnath Sengupta, CEO of Inventech.
Tanishq’s Kundan Stories collection, launched ahead of Akshaya Tritiya and the wedding season, features designs based on traditional techniques such as takkar ka kaam, talaf, wire and pearl bunching, and die-stamping. Each piece requires more than 200 hours of craftsmanship, combining heritage methods with contemporary design.
Pelki Tshering, chief marketing officer at Tanishq, said, “At Tanishq, every piece of jewellery is a story—shaped by the hands of our karigars and inspired by the Tanishq woman. This season of new beginnings, our Kundan Stories collection brings heritage and modern elegance together, celebrating craft from the beauty of takkar ka kaam to the delicate lace of filigree. And now, we bring these stories to life with India’s tallest Holo stand—an immersive, one-of-a-kind tribute to intricacy, craft, and the jewellery that adorns the modern Indian woman.”
