Lenovo has announced cricketer Jasprit Bumrah and gaming creator Mithilesh Patankar, popularly known as Mythpat, as brand ambassadors.
The brand also launched its latest brand campaign, “Damn the Odds,” featuring Jasprit Bumrah and Mythpat.
Built on the insight that pressure is not new to this generation – from academic expectations and side hustles to social image and hyper-competition – “Damn the Odds” highlights how Gen Z thrives under pressure with the right tools. With Lenovo’s AI-powered innovation across gaming and productivity, the campaign positions technology not just as a support system but as a performance multiplier.
In the film, Jasprit Bumrah trains in a futuristic AI-powered lab, analysing every angle of his wrist movement and ball trajectory. With detailed simulations and real-time comparisons, Lenovo AI Now helps him decode his movements and enhance his delivery, proving how smart training and AI insights can translate into game-day results.
Chandrika Jain, Director – Marketing, Lenovo India, said, “At Lenovo, we’re committed to powering India’s growing Gen Z community – from competitive gamers to passionate creators – with tech that’s built for performance, creativity, and expression. This campaign brings alive the spirit of ‘Damn the Odds’ by celebrating individuals who hustle hard and use smart tools to go further, faster.”
Jasprit Bumrah, who’s represented by RISE Worldwide, said, “Whether it’s cricket or life, preparation is everything. Tech today helps break down the micro-movements, identify areas of improvement, and sharpen instincts. Data and analytics have become a core part of modern cricket. What stood out to me about Lenovo’s AI-powered approach is how personal it feels – it’s built around how I train, think and perform.”
