Go Digit Life Insurance (Digit Life Insurance), a new-age digital life insurer, has appointed cricketer Virat Kohli as its brand ambassador.
Extending the ongoing “That’s It” campaign to life insurance, the first ad campaign with Kohli showcases the celebration of Digit Life Insurance bringing in a new wave of life insurance in India through simplified, easy to understand and buy, tech-enabled offerings. He is also the brand ambassador of Go Digit General Insurance and is among one of the investors in the general insurance company.
As per the company, the ad campaign has garnered 20.7 million views on Instagram and 0.61 million views on X (formerly Twitter). The campaign leverages the company’s existing brand value to spread awareness related to Digit Group’s foray into the life insurance business.
The scene of the first ad opens to the backdrop of a children’s salon where the character of Kohli, who is playing the role of a chachu, is waiting for his niece’s, played by Mishka Gambhir, haircut to be completed.
On being questioned by a parent on where he has purchased his life insurance from, the entire scene comes to a screeching halt in slow motion with his niece trying to stop him from breaking into his usual demeanour. He then gives a mischievous smile and breaks into the famous shoulder step from the “Do the Digit Digit” musical he did for Digit General Insurance two years ago.
The entire room then turns into a groovy environment with everyone joining Kohli in doing the “Do the Digit” dance with him. Virat then reveals to the parent how Life Insurance now means Digit Life Insurance, revealing the company’s entry into the life insurance segment. The first campaign focuses on clear messaging informing the consumers about Digit Group’s foray into life insurance business and how Indians can now rely on simplified products for their life insurance needs.
Using the “Do the Digit Digit” soundtrack as its background score, the campaign aims to capture viewers’ attention through brand recall and introduce them to the Digit Life Insurance brand, establishing familiarity and trust.
The launch campaign will be showcased across digital media channels like YouTube, Meta and other social media platforms; with targeted ads on OTT media platforms, helping the brand create curiosity about its range of offerings.

Speaking about the ad campaign, Kohli said, “Digit General Insurance since inception has been focused on simplifying general insurance for Indians. I am genuinely happy to see that Digit Group is now extending this new-age wave to life insurance as well. I am eager to see how Digit Life Insurance will transform this landscape for Indians and am thrilled to be part of this journey as the brand ambassador.”
Elaborating on the concept behind the campaign, Marketing Spokesperson, Digit Life Insurance, said, “ Through the “That’s It!” campaign, we wanted to transform the way we communicate the happiness of buying life insurance in one’s life. Rather than focusing on the aspect of what happens when someone is not in your life, we wanted to showcase the celebration of life that takes place when someone protects their loved ones through life insurance. Digit aims to be the default choice for life insurance for customers and “That’s It!” showcases that obvious choice that Virat Kohli is communicating through the first ad campaign.”
