My Favorite TV Commercial
Sun, 07 Mar 2010 17:04:38 +0000

I remember recently seeing a TV commercial of soft drink (cola) “Thums Up”. The ad was beautifully shot. In the ad, Bollywood's popular action hero, the dare devil Akshay Kumar pulls off some awe inspiring dangerous stunts like only he can. Akshay is seen jumping off buildings, bumping into people, climbing, racing in hot pursuit of his favorite soft drink “Thums Up”. He doesn't seem to mind his car getting smashed or he going through hell or fire as it seems he just has to lay his hands on his bottle of Thums Up. And on his return back home after getting back his prized possession, he starts drinking it, seeing which his girlfriend curiously asks what makes “Thums Up” so special. He simply hands her the bottle of the soft drink and girl seems to really like it. And then Akshay makes his prophecy known, that “Thums Up quenches thirst like no another”. The commercial it seems to me, managed to drive home the message to the audiences it was meant for. All in all a TV commercial I really found entertaining and that is rare nowadays!

Coca Cola Enjoy!!
Sun, 07 Mar 2010 13:57:50 +0000

Indian Heartthrob, Hrithik Roshanߴs Coca Cola add is a wonderful commercial, especially for Hrithik's fans. The way Hrithik plays with the Coca Cola bottles is nice to see. When he is challenged by the stunning Aditi Govitrikar on the deck for the Cola, the dance that he performs to impress her is outstanding and also the cola bottle moves along with him. This shows Hrithik's quality of a good dancer. The tagline of The Ad, says 'Jo Chaho Ho Jaaye, Coca Cola Enjoy', meaning whatever you wish will happen drinking COCA COLA. A superb ad of Coca Cola.

Surf Excel Ad
Mon, 08 Mar 2010 08:26:38 +0000

Surf Excel detergent ad is really a good commercial. It is promoting not only the detergent but also it is showing human relation. The ad visuals a teacher being absent in the class room and a student asks about her to others and knows that her dog was dead. He reaches her house and finds her really upset. He wanted her to recover and started imitating her dog, which is really touching to be watched. He crawls all over the mud just like her dog and makes his teacher laugh. The very same time he was getting his uniform dirty. The caption of the ad is "DAAG ACHA HAI" which means stain is good if we are using SURF EXCEL moreover makes a person happy.
