The Best & Worst Advertisements in India

A good ad these days is the max new york life ad - where the teenage boy is going in the train and his parents are worried and tell him his dirty underwear are in the bag and also give bananas saying they are good for digestion. All this embarrasses him in front of a girl passenger :-)

Funny there is no mention of Simply Reliance featuring Hrithik Roshan. That ad can be understood by people who know the pied piper story. For a commonner he'd be wondering why everything is turning into mice and jumping off the cliff. Good concept mediocre coverage/appeal.

My fav ads these days are:

1) Pampers napkin (not sure about the brand) ad - baby running naked around the house with funny 'akku-chikku' background song!!! saw it once, man this ad is really funny
2) Wild Stone Acqua - featuring Sheetal Mallar :-)) you know it :-) and background score is awesome!!!

Ad I hate watching
1) Samsung Corby...she is with him, he is with her.....blah blah

yep the expressions on the girls face, the embarrassed look on the boys face and the mom's look when saying goodbye - all very well done

Why do admakers make Hrithik dance and advertise any product ?

He dances for network operators, biscuits, Hero Honda ....

You had to remind me about the Hero Honda ad with Hrithik! The Karizma ad is so lame, it makes me totally hate the product.

Exactly.
People are making him dance any and every where.

A few years back he was into his 2nd or 3rd film, and there was a dance sequence on him on a very slow & sad song.

I just couldnt figure Why ??

Hate his new AD for Hero Honda Karizma ZMR, so damn lame that I switch the channel to escape it and find it again on the next channel too
