Bajaj Auto Ltd. has unveiled a new television commercial for the all-new Pulsar 150, marking 25 years of a motorcycle and advertising legacy that helped establish India’s sports motorcycling segment. Ogilvy conceptualised the film as a sequel to Pulsar’s iconic launch campaign, considered one of the firsts in advertising history.

The narrative revisits two nurses who, a quarter-century later, encounter something familiar beneath a white sheet, sparking déjà vu that transports them to their original encounter before the new Pulsar 150 is revealed. Retaining the original’s energy and tempo, the sequel brings the story into the present.

Pulsar’s 2001 arrival reshaped perceptions of what a motorcycle could represent, injecting performance, attitude and excitement into a category dominated by everyday mobility. With over 20 million units sold globally, Pulsar has become a worldwide performance brand, driven by the ‘Definitely Daring’ ethos that has defined it from the start.

Sumeet Narang, President – Marketing, Bajaj Auto Ltd., said, “Pulsar has always stood for an attitude that goes beyond the motorcycle itself. Over the years, that attitude has evolved with the riders, the category and the brand, but its essence remains ‘Definitely Daring’. This campaign gives us an opportunity to celebrate that journey in a way that feels relevant today, with the all-new Pulsar 150 representing the next expression of that spirit.”

Sukesh Nayak, Group Chief Creative Officer, Ogilvy India, said, “Creating the next chapter of a film that is so deeply remembered presents a very different creative challenge. The audience already knows the setup, so the opportunity was to use that familiarity to build anticipation and then surprise them with where the film goes. The visual cues and rhythm create that instant recognition, while the new turn in the story keeps it firmly rooted in the present.”

The braking configuration operates in conjunction with existing safety equipment on the motorcycle, which includes panic brake alert signals that activate flashing LED indicators during sudden deceleration, as well as hazard lamps.

The Glamour X 125 is powered by a Sprint-EBT engine generating 11.4 horsepower (8.5 kW) at 8,250 rpm. It comes with three selectable riding modes – Eco, Road and Power –and features cruise control functionality.

By introducing first-in-segment integrated ABS, we are not just upgrading a motorcycle; we are reshaping the safety standards for the entire category. This launch strengthens our portfolio and offers intelligent, future-ready mobility solutions that empower the new-age Indian rider."

The motorcycle utilises a 10.7 cm multi-colour instrument console with ambient backlighting that displays gear shift guidance, distance-to-empty metrics and real-time fuel consumption data. The display system supports Bluetooth connectivity to supply turn-by-turn navigation with estimated time of arrival notifications, alongside call and message alerts.

Jawa Yezdi Motorcycles has concluded its All Stars trilogy with the unveiling of a comprehensively reworked Jawa 42, a machine that represents the most profound evolution of the model since it pioneered the modern classic category in India. The launch serves as the final chapter in a three-part strategy that began with the contemporary 42 FJ and continued through the individualistic 42 Bobber, now bringing the brand's vision to its logical culmination.

A transformed stance defines the new motorcycle, with engineering teams widening the rear section and equipping a larger 150/70-17 tyre to create a more commanding road presence. The sculpted seat, positioned at 790 mm, receives enhanced cushioning while maintaining the flat profile that has become synonymous with the brand, complemented by redesigned side panels and a compact upswept exhaust that improves both aesthetics and water-wading capability.

Handling dynamics receive substantial attention through adjustments to frame stiffness, swingarm rigidity and overall mass distribution, resulting in improved agility for city navigation without sacrificing stability at higher speeds. The mechanical foundation remains a 294.72 cc liquid-cooled DOHC engine paired with a six-speed gearbox, while dual-channel ABS works in conjunction with 280 mm front and 240 mm rear disc brakes to deliver confident stopping performance.

The All Stars philosophy draws from a rider community characterised by self-assurance and a distinctive blend of individualism with collective identity, a dynamic observed in defence forces and sporting teams where personal excellence coexists with shared purpose. This ethos manifests across the range, with the Bobber celebrating non-conformity, the FJ embracing contemporary sportiness, and the new 42 serving as the flagship that unites these expressions under a single insignia of belonging.

Preservation of iconic design elements ensures the motorcycle remains recognisably Jawa, with the signature 13.2-litre fuel tank, round headlamp and bench-style seat carried forward even as the model receives over 60 distinct enhancements. These refinements build upon the 2018 original that disrupted the market with its off-centre instrumentation and unconventional colour schemes, marking a significant advancement for the brand's modern-era journey.

Deliveries are scheduled to commence on 14 September 2026, with pricing starting at INR 179,942 for the Black and Ivory variant and reaching INR 189,942 for the All Stars Black option across six colourways. The Ownership Assurance Program provides a standard four-year or 50,000-kilometre warranty, extendable to six years, alongside eight years of roadside assistance and five years of AMC coverage, all accessible through more than 450 sales and service touchpoints nationwide.

Anupam Thareja, Co-Founder, Classic Legends, said, “The most interesting communities are built by people who share a way of conducting themselves even when there is no audience. That is what we have come to understand about the Jawa rider. The codes of character, conduct and courage we see in places as different as defence and sports. We live by it by launching new formats for rider needs, motorcycles with a distinct design and recognising those who live by these codes every day. The Jawa 42 helped launch India’s modern classic category. The All Stars 42 carries that same instinct forward, not by abandoning what made the Jawa 42 but by asking what it should mean to the rider of today.”
