todays advertisements......good to worst

dude, sanitary napkin advertisments are very very pathetic!

by **Mona Lisa Smile** » Mon Apr 12, 2004 5:39 pm

I am not sure if we have any old timers here but there were a number of ads that were real good way back in mid 90s

Anyone remember them ?

Doodh doodh doodh ....doodh hai wonderful .....

Cadbury ... the lady dancing into the cricket ground

Raymond .. the complete man ...their recent ads were good but wonder how many guys would wear a suit and play with puppies or change nappies?

A truism from the ad world ... just a passing thought not trying to stir a debate.

A good advertisment kills a bad product more than a bad advertisement would.

Thats a good thought.

My old favorite.....Brittania 50 50,

Shayad sister, shayad brother.......na re na na 50 50!!!

As kids we used to love those long pepsi ads, remember the one featuring Remo Fernandis?

sales or no sales, that ad is stoooopid

I dont like his asian paint ad where steps on the card board cut out made by the little girl.

I guess the old man wants to earn as much as he can, `coz may be he thinks his son will stop getting work after a few years and he is earning for the future!!!!

Has anyone seen the recent Fevicol Ad? Hilarious... Fevicol somehow has been consistently maintaining its AD quality.... I love its AD's.

Even Pan Parag ( the shammi kapoor wala n all..)

Recent Airtel AD is amazing too ( nice background score)

By the way any takers for explaining why the Zingaro Beer Failed, inspite of its appealing AD?

Someone commented 2 me that Zingaro tastes like "horse piss". i was more interested in knowing how he was able to compare the two! :wink:

well i change my baby's nappies, but no suits for me...no way!

I hate those gutkha ads that keep appearing on the news channels. they have all sorts of atrocious names,

bombay,goa, aashiqui, sunday, monday.......and what not.

recently I saw Anoop Jalota, of all people, campaigning for a some gutkha called kamla pasand.

some day we might see Jagjit Singh doing it. :roll:

most of amuls ads are quite good. the taste of inidia ads were good too. i also like the amul paneer ad where the man looses his memory and gets it back after eating the paneer curry.

BTW Mseal ads today r quite good. remember the one where a cockroach gets inot the pants of the charecter and he yells to his dead father, whose portrait he is painting : BABUJIIIIIIIIII GHUS GAYAAAAAAAAA.

the latest ham add is the hero honda ambition ad.

ladkiyon ko patana itna aasaan hota to aur kya tha. i would ask my friends to behave like gundaas then beat them up and take the girl. :wink:

also the samsung tv ads are absolute rubbish.

BTW has any one watched the good night mosquito mat ad? they claim to be the success ka raaz for children. and while the ad goes on a small caption appears in the corner saying *conditions apply!!!!!! :shock:

and the worse of all is the horlicks ad. wonder what that means....may be some one from the north east coined that phrase....epang, opang, jhapaang :shock:

What about Pond's Ad ... Begins with "Bakwas" and advertises "Bakwas" ... "Skin Deep" Beauty becomes Acceptable ... Bakwas!

thats called cashing in on the latest happening. these guys r really opportunistic. I remember when harbhajan singh took 32 wickets against the aussies clinic all clear had a hoarding displayed which showed a black turban and the caption read dho daalaa.

Thank You, Dost A2C!

"Dho Daala 32" / "Flush 32" / "Flash 32" ... could be the Names for Toothpastes cooked up by some (M)Ad Copy Writers ... with the Jingle:

"Don't BRUSH 32 ... Just FLUSH 32" (to rhyme with BRUSH ...) Or "FLASH 32" (to rhyme with CASH!)

off late the number of toothbrush ads havecome down, thankfully. i guess they cannot get worse with the design of the brushes.
