Amul pays tribute to Vijaypat Singhania with 'The Complete Man' topical

Amul releases topical honoring late industrialist & aviator Vijaypat Singhania, referencing Raymond's iconic tagline after his passing at 87.

"A Journey Concludes. Marking the end of a storied journey. - Raymond Group"

New Delhi, April 1

Amid tributes pouring in for industrialist and aviator Vijaypat Singhania, dairy brand Amul has released a poignant topical titled 'The Complete Man,' honouring the legacy of the former Raymond Group chairman following his passing.

The illustration draws from the iconic Raymond Group tagline "The Complete Man," a brand identity widely associated with Singhania's leadership.

The tribute comes days after the company confirmed his death through social media, sharing a black-and-white photograph alongside the message: "A Journey Concludes. Marking the end of a storied journey. We pause to remember the vision and the era of Dr. Vijaypat Singhania."

Singhania, who passed away on March 28, 2026, in Mumbai at the age of 87, served as chairman of the Raymond Group from 1980 to 2000.

During his tenure, he transformed the company into a global textile and apparel powerhouse while expanding its interests into engineering and aviation. He is credited with cementing the "Complete Man" positioning, which became one of India's most recognisable brand campaigns.

Beyond business, Singhania was a celebrated aviator who held multiple world records. His contributions extended into public service as well; he was conferred the Padma Bhushan in 2006, held the honorary rank of Air Commodore in the Indian Air Force, and served as the Sheriff of Mumbai.

His last rites were performed on March 29 at Chandanwadi Crematorium in Mumbai, as confirmed by his son Gautam Singhania.

With its latest topical, Amul continues its tradition of capturing defining national moments, offering a visual homage to a figure who shaped both Indian industry and branding history.

This is so touching. Amul's topicals are a part of our national fabric. They've perfectly captured the essence of a man who was much more than just an industrialist. A Padma Bhushan, an aviator, a leader... a truly complete man. Rest in peace.

Respect. Grew up seeing those Raymond ads. They made you want to be a better man. Singhania sir built an empire but remained so grounded in service. The Air Commodore honour says it all. Salute to a great life.

While the tribute is lovely, I can't help but think Amul is sometimes a bit slow with these. The man passed away days ago. Their topical on the election results was instant. Just an observation – the sentiment is still perfect though.

End of an era. My father worked at a Raymond showroom in the 90s. He always spoke of Mr. Singhania's vision with such respect. He didn't just sell suits, he sold an aspiration. That's real branding genius. Amul's butter girl saying goodbye hits right in the feels.

Amazing to read about his aviation records alongside his business acumen. A true Renaissance man. The Raymond brand is iconic globally because of leaders like him. Amul paying tribute shows how much he meant to the Indian story.
