Anil Kapoor brings alive The Sleep Company's wake-up call in new ad
StevePriya, the independent creative agency founded by former JWT creative leaders, has unveiled a new campaign for The Sleep Company, India's pioneering comfort-tech brand and creator of the SmartGRID mattress. In a world where every device promises connection but robs us of rest, the film opens on a couple tossing and turning, frustrated and sleepless, calling out to their virtual assistants for relief. The answers? Cold, clinical, and unhelpful. Just when despair peaks, in walks Anil Kapoor - effortless, ageless and with a mission. Kapoor introduces The Sleep Company's SmartGRID mattress - a scientific breakthrough in sleep comfort and spinal support. With his signature charm and StevePriya's narrative wit, the campaign reframes what technology should really do: not keep you awake, but help you sleep peacefully. Priyanka Salot, co-founder of The Sleep Company, said, 'With the ever-iconic Kapoor fronting this campaign, we wanted to spotlight a simple truth: not all tech helps you rest. SmartGRID is the only sleep technology built to support your body into peaceful sleep, even when the world around you won't.' Priya Pardiwalla, chief creative officer of StevePriya said, 'We rely on Tech for everything. Even our sleep. We ask it to dim lights and play lullabies. But what if it genuinely can't help. By pairing real-life frustration with humour and the legendary Anil Kapoor, we turned the spotlight back where it belongs: on smarter sleep, not smarter gadgets. The SmartGRID isn't just another mattress - it's a rethink of how comfort and technology should work together, quietly, to give people the best and most peaceful sleep ever.' Watch the video here:

This Morning Trick Helps Wellnee Undo 'When I was fat and overweight, as a kid also, I believed in one thing: that there's nothing better than walking. Even today, when I want to lose weight, I just keep in mind to get out there and walk. Just be physically active. You cannot sit on your best eating food and then cribbing about the fact that you're not losing weight,' he said. Kapoor had earlier shared in a now-deleted Instagram post that it took him 15 months of consistent effort to shed the extra weight. Live Events Arjun Kapoor's daily fitness and food schedule According to The Indian Express, Kapoor follows a high-protein diet and avoids junk food, high-carb, and sugary items. He includes fresh fruits, vegetables, and protein-rich food in his meals. In the now-deleted Instagram post, he had revealed his daily routine: He begins his day with eggs and then works out at the gym. Lunch is usually a Greek Souvlaki wrap, followed by meetings and calls. In the evening, he eats Turkey Sushi and exercises again. Dinner includes Turkish kebabs with muhammara sauce, mint chutney, and pickled vegetables. His workout routine involves weight training, circuit training, CrossFit, and cardio exercises. Dealing with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and mental health In 2024, Kapoor spoke about being diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid gland and slows down metabolism. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, he said, 'I haven't always opened up about it, but I also have Hashimoto's disease (the autoimmune disease damages the thyroid gland), which is an extension of thyroid. It's almost like I can take a flight and gain weight because the body goes into distress... your body is in fight-or-flight mode.' He also talked about how the condition affected his appearance and career. 'That (Hashimoto's disease) happened to be when I was 30, and I defied it and I said, 'No, this can't be'. My mom (Mona Shourie Kapoor) used to have it, and my sister (Anshula Kapoor) also has it... If I look back today, I can see myself and my body changing through the course of my films. Now that is 2015-16, that's seven-eight years of me holding that physical trauma and then my films not panning out at the same time,' he said. Kapoor also revealed that he had taken therapy for mild depression during this period. Despite losing over 50 kg, Arjun Kapoor continues to work on his fitness. In the TOI interview, he described his transformation as a 'work in progress,' suggesting that he remains focused on staying fit and healthy.
