And is that Lindsay Lohan in the ad? I would be surprised if they have wasted her like this. Maybe JK Cements could have used her better in their ad

don't you guys just hate the new CBZ Extreme advertisement?

i mean( i do not want to put words to my feelings, this being a public forum)

The Zoozoo ads are no longer funny. Changes made to their voices have ruined the experience.

And this is for those who haven't seen it,

Wildstone Talc - new commercial

This is the complete ad. A few bits have been cut in the one aired on TV.
Keep laughing.

I just watch the new TV commercial of Fit Punto .( I search on the net to upload ,but not found it .It shows on TV frequently specially during IPL telecast). It shows left hand drive Punto . That's ridiculous . Left hand drive vehicle in Car ad in India. I think ,they just release the ad made in some other country . Kinda like cost cutting

by Fiat.

Liked the new Punto ad..simply superb.

The white never looked better before to me..everything nice about it until the finish mentioning of "1.2"

BTW the all desi mobile companies ads can easily be categorised into the worst

+1, The Punto shown in the ad looks gorgeous. Yeah, it seems to be a cut paste job from an another country's ad.

There are quite a few ads which are in the running for the worst ad. Anybody saw the Mountain Dew ad? How about the Akshay Kumar ads?

Nah. It is not Lindsay Lohan. But she does look pretty anyway, maybe some of the more knowledgeable can give gnan on who she is

.

+1 to your comments on JK Cement Ad.

She's Christna Ricci. The girl from the film " Casper - The Friendly Ghost".

I liked the TVS Sport advertisement in which a man purchases a bike as a gift for his younger brother, but keeps it for himself after driving it.

Great, thanks. And who is the magician? The part of my brain holding that information is unaccessible now.

I cannot digest ICICI Bank ads, insanely self-praising. The latest being the employee staying late to listen to the stories of the old lay, the customer. We know what they are.

AbdulRahmanM · 29th March 2010, 12:29

Akshay laughing like crazy, is it for Micromax? I hate that ad.

The guy is going to be nominated for an Oscar for the Best Actor! it must have been sooooooo difficult for him to sit in an "ICICI" office and 'act' so friendly even if it was for an ad!

The Blackberry ads are so damn pathetic (Do what you love , Love what you do)

Yuck.
