Inspired by the traditional stitched quilt ‘godhadi’, the film captures the relationships, memories and traditions that are often passed down through treasured pieces of jewellery
Mumbai: Heritage jewellery brand Jagannath Gangaram Pednekar (JGP) Jewellers has unveiled ‘The Godhadi Effect’, a Marathi short film that explores the emotional bond families share with their jewellery while gently encouraging a fresh perspective on old gold exchange.
Starring acclaimed Marathi actors Jitendra Joshi, Madhurani Gokhale, Sai Godbole and Pradeep Welankar, the film beautifully captures the relationships, memories and traditions that are often passed down through treasured pieces of jewellery. Inspired by the ‘godhadi’—a traditional quilt lovingly stitched together from cherished pieces of fabric—the story reflects how memories continue to live on across generations, even as they take new forms.
The film marks JGP Jewellers’ second story-telling-led campaign featuring the same ensemble cast, following its widely appreciated festive film, ‘The Result’, which celebrated equality in modern families. Through meaningful story-telling rooted in everyday life, the brand continues to create narratives that connect with audiences beyond jewellery.
At its heart, ‘The Godhadi Effect’ aims to create awareness around old gold exchange by encouraging families to see their old jewellery not just as precious memories, but as a conduit to creating new ones.
Speaking about the initiative, Asavari Pednekar, Managing Director, Jagannath Gangaram Pednekar (JGP) Jewellers, said, “Every piece of jewellery has a story—it reflects celebrations, relationships and memories that stay with us for generations. With ‘The Godhadi Effect’, we wanted to celebrate these emotions while encouraging families to look at old gold exchange through a new lens. We hope the film resonates with families and inspires meaningful conversations around preserving both memories and value. Our Brand Agency ADbhoot has conceptualized and developed this film.”
With ‘The Godhadi Effect’, JGP Jewellers continues to reinforce its belief that jewellery is far more than an ornament. Through stories that celebrate everyday relationships and timeless values, the brand continues to strengthen its emotional connection with customers while remaining rooted in trust, craftsmanship and family traditions.
Founded in 1950, Jagannath Gangaram Pednekar Jewellers is a trusted jewellery retailer with a strong presence across Maharashtra and Goa. With 25 stores and a legacy spanning over seven decades, the retailer continues to serve generations of customers across the region.
