9 f*** all TV ads by our beloved celebs
TV commercials have been duping people since the longest time. Advertisements are the best medium to influence people to buy a certain product. Do you know that back in the days smoking cigarettes was glamourised by companyies by having popular actors star in commercials. And still actors do lamest things in the name of commercials.
We bring to you the craziest ads that our favorite celebs have starred in-
Vidya Balan- Jahan Soch Wahan Shochalaya
We are all yayy for a Government initiated sanitation campaign, which was a great step in India. But God, could not they have come up with a better tagline? “Jahan Soch Wahan Shochalay”? Seriously? I doubt the tagline even connected to the rural audience. They too would have been laughing their asses off.
Poor Vidya Balan would never be able to wipe off this out of her life.
Sorry to flush you with these crappy facts-
Number 1-
In rural areas of central India, the act of cleaning after the deed is called ‘sonch’ (soch with a N), so it’s even funnier there
Number 2-
It is this very campaign, Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan that has been re-launched as Swacch Bharat Abhiyan
Shah Rukh Khan- Lux
With all the money in the world, Shah Rukh Khan would not have done a big line-up of sorry ads for monetary reasons. Maybe for the chance to star in a commercial with so many beautiful ladies at once? A picture is worth a thousand words, but we can sum up this entire video in one word – CREEPY!
Shah Rukh Khan – Frooti; Suck It, Lick It
If you are blessed with a brain like mine, this Frooti ad starring Shah Rukh Khan is not going to go down well. The amount of stamina required to not LOL around family when this ad is on, is hard. Some may agree this ad has more sexual tension than Katrina Kaif’s Aamsutra. Don’t imagine Katrina Kaif in this ad. I said don’t imagine.
Priyanka Chopra- Ponds White Beauty
Things in love are never just plain black or white. As in this case, they are pinkish white. Behold, one of the most derogatory ads is here. So in the 5 part ad series, because one ad wasn’t enough to make vulnerable girls feel insecure about their natural complexion, Saif Ali Khan breaks up with Priyanka Chopra and moves on and becomes a rich and popular, and has a much hotter girlfriend Neha Dhupia. Poor Priyanka curls up in a ball of sadness and starts using a beauty product that claims to give her a pinkish white complexion as opposed to her photoshopped pale white one. In her transformation process she runs into Saif a few times and he doesn’t speak a word to her. It is only after her final stage of achieving total fairness that Saif is able to muster courage and break up with his girlfriend and return to his one true love. Awwww….*pukes* I want to write an entire blog post on this topic but I’ll just suffice with a round of *slow claps*
I hope they do a movie together soon because this ad isn’t how anyone would want to remember Saif and Priyanka in a frame!
Soha Ali Khan- Biorays Samsung tv
Soha. Soha. Soha. Please start reading the scripts before reaching the sets to shoot things. Apparently, the solution to all domestic fights was discovered by Samsung. It was nothing else but a TV invented by them installed with Bio rays emitter that relaxes your entire body. It’s not an ad…it’s an existential question to Science and logic, for scientists to solve. Poor people who fell for it and brought the TV.
Priyanka Chopra- Rajnigandha
If you have seen the ad can you please tell in the comments section if it’s an ad for Rajnigandha Silver Pearls or ecstasy? Because it sure looks like latter.
Do all the down to earth people prefer silver coated cardamom after every act of humanity? Why in this world would former Miss World promote Rajnigandha?
Saif Ali Khan- Amul Macho
The human body has seven trillion nerves and some ads manage to get on every single one of them. And Saif Ali Khan auditioning a dancing mannequin is one of them. Can you imagine a Nawab selling chaddi-baniyan? Read it again.
If that makes no sense, the advertisement is going to spiral down further more to a nonsensical dimension with the concept. Please explain the ad if you can in the comments section! So, Saif is a judge at a talent show, and this mannequin comes wearing Amul Macho innerwear and starts dancing, leaving Nawab sahib in awe of it. Then Nawab sahib says “Amul Macho, Bade Aaram Se”. Umm…what?
Salman Khan swears upon his mother, he wears Relaxo Hawaii
Bhaii! Bhai please stop it, will you? Saving a girl from falling off an icy cliff with a strap of a slipper? Just don’t make it more difficult for us Bhai fans to propose counter arguments on your choice of work and our love for you.
After saving pretty girls from several life ending scenarios with help of chappals, Salman Khan says “Ye thoda zyada ho gaya” but the slippers are very strong and swears upon his mother that he wears them. First off all.. ‘thoda zyada’…thoda? This entire life size rendition of giving the middle finger is thoda? If it has to be so terribly logicless, at least make it funny like the recent cement ad done by The Great Khali.
The entire line up by Colgate chutney ads…Sorry…Toothpaste ads
Priyanka Chopra. Lara Dutta, Sonakshi Sinha, Kareena Kapoor, Kajal Aggarwal. Colgate has had so many actresses promote their chutney flavored toothpastes. Neem,nimbu,namak, what not has been added to the toothpaste. And even if it’s a hot girl who suddenly appears in your bathroom, you’d be shitting your pants, not taking dental hygiene advice.
