ReplyDeleteTake the ad you first refer to... the one in which Big B gets off the car, hits the pole, his soul gets into the girl and once in her, he satisfies his urge for the dairy milk... and the caption says... 'jab andar se awaaz aaye, kuch meetha ho jaaye'
Just in order to depict the fact that 'andar se awaaz' aayi hai for 'kuch meetha', they go to the extent of making the fellow die and his soul fulfil that last urge!
Seems like an ad that, when thought of and gradually developed over the board, would have seemed nice to the people thinking of it... but then... falls way short of the mark in actuality.
Nice blog concept, btw :-)
