The Best & Worst Advertisements in India

Also, there was a Palio ad where a Palio races with a bullet train

with wanna be Rajesh Khanna at the wheels

. Who was Fiat targeting? 70s crowd?

Well the wannabe Rajesh Khanna didn't go far but the girl on the train he was wooing has gone far - she is SRK's new heroine in the new Yash Raj movie.

If you get wooed by a guy driving a Palio - you end up as a Bollywood heroine.

One more in addition to Boring ads.. is SRK in the Sunfeast Biscuit ads, shot in a Bakery???? But where in india will we find such a clean bakery??

Hide and Seek Biscuit ad with hritik... the female model with hritik roshan is HOTTTT!!

New Halls Ad crap crap...

If radio ads are OK on this thread, I like the Euro 2008 radio ad where the father wants to know why his daughter is rejecting potential groom after groom.

I think Sohail is talking about the Italian model who features in the Hide-n-Seek ad in which Hrithik Roshan is seen trying to bake cookies.

Speaking of radio - how many of you FM listeners in Mumbai love - Kamla, Dr Honey Balkar, Angry Ganesan (all 3 from 93.5 Red FM) and Ghanta Singh (94.3 FM) ?

SohailPistawala · 12th June 2008, 15:02

motorhead: SumitB right , i am talking about the new ad.. where he is left out in the bakery to bake something , and the italian model arrives to help hritik.

Hmmm.
thanks for the correction.
I am not hooked to the idiot box these days as i m
getting bored of seeing the LCD screen of my laptop
in office the whole day.

I did however manage to find the ad on youtube.
She's good but I am a bit "Swadeshi" at heart.
So liked Isha Sharvani more :P

Spitfire · 12th June 2008, 16:58

Is that Isha or is she Nimisha Lamba? I dont really know, most of them look similiar.

motorheadinc · 12th June 2008, 17:04

and BTW its Minissha lamba not nimisha lamba

OT: Who's most of them???

No, I have never observed the add perfectly and personally I hate SRK in Hyundai cars. i10 beating a super bike add was one of the worst.

I guess he meant - Isha Shravani, Minisha Lamba and Urvashi whatever (The babe from Naqaab)

Even I'm confused at times.

Btw, dont you guys think we are having an overdose of "Life Insurance" ads ?

Good to know that most people despise the new Getz ad, and also the Indigo CS ad.
But its amazing how the makers never felt that!
