The Best & Worst Advertisements in India

clevermax · 27th August 2008, 21:41

The "Ready? Ready.. Ready....Ready.... Dishum! Dihum!" (Some official sponser - Olympics.. Is that Samsung?) ad is really a boring one. Whenever it comes, I mute the TV or change channel.

Thats true. Its pretty vulgar, especially when the woman bites his @$$. Definitely has a bad impact on children.

True! I didn't get the ad. What does that mean?

Concept of this ad has been lifted from a great movie called "duel".

Here is the link:

YouTube - Tata Sky - Aamir Khan commercial

Better than SRK burting out 'Vish Karo Dish Karo' by a very very long shot. In fact no comparison.

What do you guys say about the Condom Condom ad? If you keep such ringtone, atleast in office, opposite sex might it offensive, isn't it? Nowadays, companies have strict rules against sexual harassment.

In office phones should be on vibrator or basic ring-ring tone. Key word is quiet.

Anyone seen the Honda Civic add? Think it could make a strong point if it registers correctly.
"Fuel economy, isn't it getting the most out of every drop?" as opposed to "I dont care what i get, i want my tank to stay full longer"

Airtel's new ad featuring Raima Sen and Abhay Deol - I like it a lot. The way the phone ring is in sync with the tune is simply very nice.

Hurrycane12 · 1st September 2008, 12:08

Agree with you a better advt from Airtel

SX4 Lorry advt is also cool;

Anyone watched that awful 'Big TV' ad - TV ho toh Big TV ho, varna naa ho?

If there is one agency that has been doling out one crap ad after another, then it is ADAG's agency (Mudra?). Talk of intellectual/creative poverty!

OT : Big TV's ad reminded of Big B's famous dialogue from Sharabi - Muche ho toh Nathulal jaisi ho, varna na ho - except that the latter was simply brilliant, both in concept and execution!

Can someone post link to the new TATA indicom ad video?
The girl is cute IMO..

blue_pulsar · 1st September 2008, 23:53

Has anyone seen the new Cycle agarbatti ad?
Saw this ad on a Kannada channel. Haven't seen it on a Hindi Channel. Not sure if it exists in Hindi.
In this ad, the mother prays to God so that her daughter gets a good groom. The daughter prays that she does not want to do house-hold work and she wants an MBA seat.
The girl is really really beautiful. True Indian beauty IMO.
