Godrej Consumer Products' 'Machar Hai, Mehman Nahi' public service film reminds households that not every visitor deserves an invitation

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 8: Mosquitoes and the diseases they spread continue to pose a serious public health challenge in India.

With the belief that mosquitoes should not be treated as harmless visitors, Godrej Consumer Products Limited (GCPL) has, as part of its CSR initiative Elimination of Mosquito Borne Endemic Disease (EMBED), launched a public service film titled 'Machar Hai, Mehman Nahi' urging households across India to rethink how easily mosquitoes are allowed into everyday spaces. This CSR initiative is in line with GCPL's impact-oriented culture that focuses on creating real change for communities. The powerful film reinforces that mosquitoes as unwelcome intruders and urges households to prevent their breeding inside and around their homes.
