2.Aveo ad where a gorilla comes and saif says " hey its trying to get into the car"


I agree with you completely. It is an absolute nonsensical ad. Such an exxagerated ad. Why the need to use a Gorilla??? ??:??: Couldn't they have just used Adnaan Sami?? Saif and Rani have been totally wasted in the ad n personally I think the gorilla did a much better job than either of them.

Another Ad that I hate a lot these days is 'ZapakMail'. No content at all. Stupid silly rockets, comparing with postman. Total Crap.

I don't know where Reliance-ADG is heading to in the whole internet space with duds like ZapakMail and BigAdda (This one is BigAnda rather - p0rnier version of YouTube & Orkut)

Latest worst AD is by Air-Tel...

HAPPY RECHARGE TO YOU.......


gosh !! I am unable to listen that song. Its like Birthday is celebrated once in a year, the Air-Tel recharge is also successful once in a year...


Dude so true man...such an irritating ad...

I don't kno how many of you have seen this Fair & Lovely ad...but in the ad, its the girl who goes to the guy's house to see her to-be bride groom!!!...the exact opposite of what happens in a normal arranged marriage scenario and the reason simply being that she is Fair and Lovely:angry:...wot the Hell!! the guy is portrayed to be a total loser...can u imagine he dances and sings, serves tea! and even feels shy!!! :angry:
I always felt Fair & Lovely ads demaned the not-so-fair section of our community...c'mon like only fair ppl were born to win!!
But I so totally detest these ads!

the hcl ad..
hcl dude: (with hat that says hcl,hitchhikes on a guys car)i work for hcl.

It indeed seems to be made by some ignorant advtg fuchcha in a bad taste.. in fact, to me, it represents the avg HCL guy in a bad light (which obviously aint the general reality) - arrogant, dependent yet thankless..
1423

i hate all lays ads simply because
a.they feature saif ali khan who makes me absolutely sick
b.the concept is yuck like most of the other lays ads.

Yeah completely agree with you. This Ad has been made out of a poor script and the concept is that HCL is going global. I don't know why the guy was waiting on roadside (may be his helicopter got crashed) and then he is making the IB looks like foolish. He tells that the stock market crashed but even on a crash not all the stocks crash idiot. And may be that's why STOCK market has decided to go the TCS way. TCS is doing the NSE project.

Well, the ad has been done poorly. And it hypes the HCL thing. THeir target consumers are not that idiot that for a car ride or for that matter Helicopter ride they will join HCL...

Hey Guys!
anyone saw this new AD....
there is a loot in da train....there r a few dacoits who go about threatening people to dump whatever they have in a large box that a midget who is walkin infront of them carries...:snipersm:
until they reach this man ... who has nothin in his wallet...
he shows he has nothing in his wallet much to the disgust of the Chief...
but for a bank card...
and the chief of the dacoits,takes out his money and gives it to this man...
coz the card that the man has is the
~ABN AMRO ONE card~ that gives you sure cashback..:rockedov:

I found the AD to be silly...
The AD might be interesting but is pointless and conveys nothing but for advertising the fact that it is transparent card...:crazyeye:


hey dude, that was one hell of an ad. I liked it so much that I had to disagree with you with a post. What else can convey the idea "cash back anywhere on anything" better 😃

wat i gather from this ad is that its not aimed so much at customers,but at their employees and prospective employees. they r trying to boost their employee morale which is so low in the whole software industry..
but due to some jackass who devised this ad,all they have managed to do is embarass their employees further..next time anyone sees an hcl dude asking for a lift,the car walla is going to show the hcl guy the middle finger n ask him to radio his chopper in..
1427

My all time hate list of ads will have to include Sehwag ki Maa ad (with all due respect to sehwag ki ma). Though its old, its bad enough to be despised for ever

hahahaha, fell off my chair imaging the above scenario of hcl guy asking for lift and getting the middle finger ....

PS:- I am too a software engineer with as usual 'my job sucks' attitude but thank god my company hasnt thought of the ad idea ...

SRK stars in yet another dumb ad. "Jeetna hai tujhko, Khud ko na rok"
The lyrics cant get triter. Definitely no masterstroke.

1430

There's a rubbish ad of a choclate brand of Amitabh Bachhan, where he hits a lamp post and dies, his spirit comes out and gets into a girl and she takes a choclate, enjoys it and then spirit goes back in Mr Bachhan!
kya concept hai bhai!! kuch aur nahi mila....!! 😁

1431

i just hate that irfan khan's hutch ka chota recahrge wala ad. its exaggerating when he saYS that aaj kal chai ka bill bhi 100 rs ho jata hai........ the condition really is not SO bad.
and of course AB s dairy milk's ad....
i sometimes wonder how do stars agree to feature in such ads????
money does really matter!!!

I agree. It deserves to be hated (rather reviled) , not only exaggerating, it is simply misleading. He is promoting a talktime worth Rs. 10 only for Rs. 100 (read the small script) using so many useless/ meaningless and untrue words!
B-set
1433

Current ads I hate are
1. Parle G Hritik Ad
2. Amitabh Bachan Cadburys
3. John - Yamaha Ad
4. Radio FM Baal Baal Bache
5. Airtel Old ad, when that fellow goes to meet his grandfather, however the continuing ads for the same made sense
6.

1434

How about the 'Chakru ban gaya Chatterjee' waala Ice Capuccino Ad. Man, I hate that one to the core. The concept sucks big time - and none of the Gen-X, Y or Z can relate to that (the market the Ad was supposed to target)

1435

Oh yeah agree with you, but then the ad was atleast close to what it was targetting, however the ad was very monotonous, you know something very close to the Limca ad.
well what you say about the praveen goenka Mahindra ad, this was similar to waht was being done in US where in for Chrysler you had Lee Ioacca coming out in the public ...

1436

Hey..
u ppl r talking abt quite popular ads but here i wanna share a radio adv that i've listened yesterday, when i was coming back frm my office...
It's adv of LPG(4 home use).. two ladies were talking 2 each other....

one to another: waah sheela nai saadi, kuo husband ko koi lottery lagi hai (saari maket depends on lotty mkt.:crazyeye:)

Second: Meri to har mahine lottery lagti hai.. aur wo bhi pure 15% ki (15% ki lottery..??:confused: ye kya hota hai bhai..??)

1st: how..??

Second: by using lpg stove i save 15% gas every day....!!!!


Now if we consider monthely consumption worth Rs.300/-, she save Rs.45/-
Rs.45/- ki saari, so attractive dt sm1 can't even think dt it's affordable 4 middle class lady.. she bought it frm money earned by lottery....
Wht the hack:-x.. Now, No comments
