The Condom Song (the tv ad for the mobile ring tone)

I’m sure you’ve heard about it so why don’t you have a listen, first hand? Catchy tune- 🙂

NEW DELHI (AP) _ A cell phone ring tone that sings “Condom, condom!” has been launched to promote safe sex in India, where condoms carry a strong social stigma and HIV and AIDS are growing problems, health experts said Tuesday. The a cappella ring tone features a professional singer chanting the word condom more than 50 times, a playful approach that public health activists hope will spark discussion and make condoms more socially acceptable.

Amul Macho Men’s Underwear Commercial

Is she horny or homicidal? This housewife gets “inspired” by her husband’s Amul Macho men’s underwear, while washing his chuddies at the dhobi ghats…just when it looks like she’s about to experience “la petite mort” (as the French politely call it) she whacks the groin area of his undies with a wooden board…anyway, here’s amul macho “crafted for fantasies”:

Two Goofy Snake Charmer Commercials

Shah Rukh Khan plays snake-charmer flute to seduce pepsi-snake-bottles into dancing…the only thing I can’t figure out is why he’s dressed like Captain Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Carribean…but why?

A commercial for mentos candies…they appear to be laced with some sort of psychedelic instrument-mutating substance causing the snake charmer to play trippy sitar music on his snake charmer’s flute…the snake gets really enthu about the music and starts dancing…only thing is…snakes don’t have ears…so it really makes no difference what kind of music you play as long as you sway about back and forth because that’s what really hypnotizes them…trust me to expect realism from a candy advert. And it seems the Simpson’s “Apu” Indian accent is getting popularized over here now as well…Anyways enjoy…

FAIR and HANDSOME…pass the face cream boyz…

Well apparently the fairness cream conglomerates that dominate the Indian cosmetic market making over 1000 crores per year have decided to hone in on the metrosexual demographic…so guys…you no longer need to fear the sun…or sneak into your mommy’s toiletry cabinet at night searching for bleach and sunscreen…from now on you too can get your face to look several shades lighter than the rest of your body…and trust me…the girls will come running….dazzled by the Brahminical whiteness of your gleaming pores… Now you just need to wax those legs and arms (armpits optional) and work on those cooking skills and the girls will come screaming screaming “Hi Handsome Hi Handsome Hi Handsome!”

I just read about a groom who went on hunger strike because his bride-to-be refused to marry him because he was too dark…it was an arranged marriage but she refused till he starved himself outside her house…eventually she agreed…its scary to think that these fairness creams are actually helping people…and that its not just advertising hype…these adds are all about how whiter skin means better jobs and higher marriage prospects. Well. Its true. So it makes it slightly hard to condemn a product without looking at why it is so successful…people want to use it. and they do want to use it for the same reasons they are advertised.

King’s Cup Tea Retromercial

I love the jingle…King cup…King cup…but if you change the jingle and watch the add listening to some sleazy saxophone music it really looks like that Raja is about to molest that forest nymph before the doors slam on him and another “real” door opens where his wife is waiting with the tea. The music is tingling with innocence but the visuals tell a raunchy story; the add is really all about this guy’s wet (tea) dream about boning his wife after work. The tea is going to give him a kick so he can get down to business as you can tell by the way he raises his eyebrows and the final shot is of his wife removing a hair ornament and putting it on the tea tray.
