Kyonki saas bhi kabhi patli thi

Came across this hilarious post on www.india-forums.com on the ever-popular-ner-say-die-spirit-kapti-channel's (star plus) trump card: Kyonki Saas bhi kabhi bahu thi..

LOL!!!... it is too good..

Kyunki saas bhi kabhi patli thi!

Also, I am amazed at people writing reviews/what-happened-in-the-episode kind of stuff for these serials??!!!! I think we Indians do not have got better things to do!

Some of the best Indian TV commercials

After having compiling a list of worst Indian TV commercials.. here goes some of my best TV commercials list...

1. Naukri.com - Hari Sadu. Perhaps till date one of the fav ads of all times. Hats off to the agency which did this work - FCB Ulka. No wonder the ad has won Campaign of the Year award.

The video can be seen on Youtube:

2. Captain Cook (salt) - perhaps one of the old time favourites of mine which showed how negative connotation can be used to advertise brand. I do not recall seeing any such other Indian TV commercial using this style.

3. Hutch - You and I commcerical series with Cheeka (the dog). Lovely series of ads, though I doubti if the commercial and network were linked at all :)
Some wiki information about it:

4. Fevicol ads - hen and egg, pakde rehna chhodna nahin (hanging from bridge), hundreds of people on a truck in some remote place in Rajasthan, a woman labor putting her kid on top of Fevicol can.. the list is endless.. simpy marvelous pieces of work. could google this:

Worst Indian TV commercials..

I had been thinking for quite sometime compiling a list of my all time favourites and most hated TV commercials... for the time being this post shall cater to the latter... I shall have a separate one for the former sometime later..

1. Young India undergarments

2. Frooti's Digen Verma (if I got the spellings right) - this one had created a lot of hype about the product being talked about. Though I do not mean to say the Ad was bad, but the teaser concept was bad, the way it unfolded. What the heck.. it is just a Frooti!!! It definitely create a lot of hype and perhaps rang some cash registers too for Parle Foods... but the end was crazy!
and
Pepsi TV - on the same lines as that of Digen Verma.. this one too did not make any sense at all to me. I initially thought they are actually coming up with a TV channel.. even though they would have.. the ad would have remained bad...

3. Sharuhkkkkkkhan's Lux ad!!! (that makes 2 for SRK: Pepsi TV and Lux) - Gosh!! I dunno what the hell was he thinking when he signed for it... perhaps to be a beast amongst beauties...!!! :D

4. Some saria's ad - Dharmendra... maalik ki mohar :d

5. khushboo waalah dollar!!! ($ undergarments advertisements)
