Run for just under a month, the Ganesha Goes Green contest got a total of 91 print ads and concepts. The Times Green Ganesha was enthralled by the response, considering the short duration of the contest and had a tough time picking winners.

 

Brand Prizes

The Times Green Ganesha team had a look at all of the ads made their selection based on what they felt would appeal to people's sensibilities, and, of course, what went well with the brief and reflects the kind of approach the brand would like to take. They appreciated the personal touch these two ads displayed.

 

Best Print Ad goes to "Rejoice, Revive, Rejuvenate" by arkasircar.  

The runner-up in Print is "Bappa caring for Mother Earth" by sagarkadam777.  

 

Community Prizes

Community prizes were obviously easy to figure out since you guys did all the hard work for us, by voting for your favourites.   In order of votes, the winners are:  

"Serve the universe to serve Ganesha" by moorvina  

"Ganesha says Think Green - 1" by arkasircar  

"Let the festivity soar" by chanderjoshi

"Think to go ‘Go Green'" by veeyen (Great visual; copy could've been better)
