So logically the bubbles of City, Civic, Accord and CR-V burst too, right?!

Make you wanna think, what are they trying to promote.

The stupid looking watch or all the "not so appropriate relations" and maybe even AIDS.

PS: If I write in plain english, I might get a ban for life from this forum.
If you don't really understand what I'm trying to say, see the ad.

I guess that kind of ads should be "banned".
Pathetic, pointless and its degrading the moral values we have (at least as Indians).

Sex sells! Everyone knows this

. Besides, you have to admit the girl is a looker

Which ad is this? Why do I always see all the adverts after everyone has seen it?!

I cannot understand abcd of Honda Jazz ad.
What are they trying to convey? Why are they artificially laughing for no reason? Someone please elaborate.!

Worst ad has to be i-Pill.
(indirectly) Encouraging young girls to have unprotected sex and chill.

Unfortunatly no one knows the why's and the wherefores, just like the pricing of the jazz...

Kinley ad is really cool. The girls in the book store are pretty

Unilever - Surf Excel ad in which a mom makes her 5 year old boy act like a dog, she throws him her 'uun ka gola' boy pees like a dog and rolls in dust and then the grand catch line - Daag acche hain

Dont these idiots sitting in adv. agencies have any sense of decency left. A mom making her son act like a dog and son rolling in dirt to get his clothes stained. what are they trying to teach the audience. How much they can stoop to sell their product. Unilever should be ashamed and withdraw this ad immediately.

The Vodafone do not disturb ad is very nice...

Here's a British Public Information Film from 1998.

It made me ensure that nobody ever travelled in the back of my car without wearing a seatbelt. Watching it today, I still find it chilling, shocking and horribly real. Bear in mind that when we first saw it on our TVs, we did not know what it was going to be about.

Give it a try. Afterwards, you might just be making sure that those rear seat belts are working, and that they get used.

I so so agree with you, but isn't that a common story for many indian film(ad)makers who spoil a nice story at the end. That Kareena or whoever was a disaster for that ad.
