Bengaluru, February 05, 2026 — Breaking away from category conventions, SUYUG Infra has delivered one of India’s most talked-about real estate marketing campaigns with a citywide, sci-fi-inspired activation that turned Bengaluru’s skyline into a storytelling canvas.
SUYUG Infra’s two-week campaign has rewritten the rules for real estate engagement, trading technical specifications for a viral, galaxy-themed narrative. The initiative garnered a staggering 4.08 million views, achieving a 1.38% engagement rate that stands in stark contrast to the sub-1% industry average. While most developers rely on festive offers to drive traffic, SUYUG’s mystery-led strategy saw nearly one in four engaged users investigating the brand further, proving that compelling storytelling can drive high-intent consideration even in a crowded market.
The “SUYUG UFO Campaign”, executed over two weeks in January, blended fiction, digital culture, and on-ground installations to reimagine how real estate brands engage audiences, positioning SUYUG Infra as “The Best Homes in The Galaxy.”
From UFO Sightings to Citywide Buzz

The campaign opened with unexplained UFO sightings over South-East Bengaluru. CGI videos, mock CCTV footage, and cryptic social posts began circulating across private accounts, influencer pages, and city update handles, sparking widespread speculation.
Adding to the intrigue, a SUYUG development site was temporarily transformed into a “restricted UFO landing zone,” while the brand launched ufo.suyug.com, a microsite styled like an early-2000s conspiracy blog featuring footage, clues, and timelines. SUYUG’s official channels reinforced the narrative through formal, statement-style updates that kept audiences guessing.
Within days, the sightings escalated into a citywide phenomenon, amassing over 4 million views and sparking 56,503 social media interactions as the mystery trended across Instagram.
The Reveal: Invasion? No, Just an Upgrade: Aliens Hunt for ‘The Best Homes in the Galaxy’
In the second phase, SUYUG revealed the twist. Moving from mystery to mass participation, SUYUG’s second phase flipped the script on the 'alien' arrival. Influencer-led reveals humorously clarified that the visitors were motivated by investment, not invasion. By portraying the project as a destination worthy of a galactic journey, the brand used satire to drive home a serious message about its construction standards. The result was a seamless blend of entertainment and real estate marketing that set a new benchmark for brand storytelling in the city.
Alien mascots appeared at prominent public locations across Bengaluru, inviting citizens to participate in a UGC challenge via Instagram Stories:
“Should the aliens exchange their UFO for a SUYUG home?”
The reveal, humorously suggesting that these cosmic visitors traveled light-years specifically for SUYUG Infra’s 'Best Homes in the Galaxy', unlocked a wave of viral, meme-led responses. Amplified by popular digital culture pages, the campaign sparked a massive social dialogue where the city joined the joke, trading UFO theories for real estate talk. The finale saw hoardings unveiled across the city carrying the message:
“SUYUG - The Best Homes in the Galaxy.”
A New Playbook for Real Estate Brands
By combining sci-fi world-building, humor, and public participation, SUYUG shifted the real estate conversation from specifications to storytelling, demonstrating how the category can engage like a consumer brand without losing credibility. “Real estate marketing doesn’t have to feel formulaic,” said Yathish Surineni, MD, SUYUG Infra.
“We wanted to create something people would talk about, share, and remember while still reinforcing the strength of our product.”
