A social media campaign tied to The India Story has added fresh star power, with Kajal Aggarwal and Shreyas Talpade joining the film’s #WhatsOnYourPlate challenge and pushing its food safety message into the mainstream. Their participation has turned a promotional campaign into a broader call for audiences to think harder about what lands on their plates.
The challenge invites people to post photos of their meals and nominate others to do the same, creating a chain of awareness around pesticide use and food adulteration. Kajal Aggarwal and Shreyas Talpade have now become the latest public faces of that campaign, helping The India Story build digital traction ahead of its July 24, 2026 theatrical release.
Kajal Aggarwal And Shreyas Talpade Join The Push
As shared through their social media activity, both actors used the campaign to spotlight concerns around food quality and consumer awareness. Kajal posted a picture of her meal and framed it around a simple but unsettling question of whether the food people eat is truly safe. Shreyas echoed the same concern by urging audiences to become more conscious about everyday consumption and support the movement.
Kajal also nominated Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Rakul Preet Singh, extending the challenge beyond one post and into a wider celebrity-led chain. The format may be social-media friendly, but it ties directly into the issue at the heart of The India Story, which focuses on pesticide farming and the hidden risks associated with food production.
That gives the campaign a sharper edge than a routine promotional trend. Instead of stopping at awareness for the film, the makers are clearly pushing the subject into daily conversation, using a familiar digital format to get people thinking about a subject that affects households across the country.
The Film Behind The Campaign
Presented by Zee Studios in association with MIG Production & Studios, The India Story is directed by Chettan DK and written and produced by Sagar B. Shinde. The film is set for a worldwide theatrical release on July 24, 2026 in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil.
The supporting creative team includes cinematographer Nishant Bhagwat, music composer Mangesh Dhakde, editor Ashish Mhatre, lyricist Shakeel Azami, and sound designer Anmol Bhave. With its focus on pesticide farming, the film appears to be positioning itself as an issue-driven drama, while the #WhatsOnYourPlate campaign extends that conversation well beyond the screen.
