Very correct. I remember when they were first put up at busy junctions people would keep staring a her and totally forget that they are on there bikes in the middle of a busy road. It happened to me several times. But the pillion rides are all very happy

For a long time, I thought that was an ad for a soap, what with a fresh looking female running towards a tree besides a lake and a man running after her. Black & white, no less; the 'box' looked like one of the Chandrika/ Medimix type as well

Hi Vivek,

The problem was with the URL having a "highlight=" in the end - it is a version problem with PHP at our hosting service's end. While we are rectifying that, for the time being we have edited it in all places in this topic and removed it. Now that link works fine.

I remember the price phinyle one i used to see in cinema halls. the husband takes a sip of tea and says "sach much, prince phinyle wakai bahut achcha phinyle hai!!!" chai me milake piya kya? :shock:

C'mon guys.

at the start of the discussion vivek gave a link to the post he had made a few weeks back abt the ten dumbest adds.

then it contained only one add, coz of some pblm with the link , later the link got restored and went thru all the adds and the prince phynile add was one of them.

Phew!!!!

new good ones.

Crocin: Ganja aadmi having a head ache holding his head. taxi driver asks, sar dard kar raha hai kya. Ganju replys, nahi sar ke baal gin raha hoon!!!

Monaco: Sends a NASA rocket into orbit 30 sec. before launch by using a sur sur batti and says; Uda diya, Tension nahi lene ka monaco khaane ka.

Worst ones:

Head and shoulders

somehow the harpic ad always comes on when i am busy eating...

i think its an ISI conspiracy to make indians lose interest in eating n grow weaker... :twisted:

anyway I found Indian Ads better on creativity n ideas than most of Ads on Australian TV...on aussie ads, tho some are good, on most of them u just see people blandly come on screen, talk abt the product n thats it...more like the TeleShopping Ads here on TV.

I read some where that aussies have implemented some strict regulation on there ads....how true is it?

Those teleshopping things are s***, e.g they show a device to reduce ur weight (ab some thing) and the after a few months they show some new device and highlight the disadvantages of there previous product!!! too late, the poor buyer has already suffered.

But, AB works man, parker pens reported a rise in there pen sales after he started advertising for it.
