1. The Indian Pied Piper: So the concept is obviously off nationality wise but there is something so interesting about an Indian guy with a flute dancing bollywood style, signs that become animated rodents and follow him out of the town being cheered on by townspeople in turbans and saris. The commercial completely captivates me every time it’s on.
2. Abortion Pills: It’s nice to see how a religiously conscious country not politically beholden to the word of any religion reacts to certain issues.
3. Skin Bleaching products: There are so many of these types of commercials it’s no longer even phasing me. The variety still continues to inspire though: Dark spots, body bleach, face whitener, streaky skin, etc.
4. Namco Cookies/Crackers: I suppose this would translate better if I understood Hindi but the ad contains a house on fire, a happy woman, a sad man, a set of cookies, and then the guy decides to throw the firecrackers at the woman’s feet making her scream and dance. This makes him happy.
5. Boy turns into dog: A boy walks home from school, finds mom sad on the porch and then proceeds to get on all fours and act like a dog for 20 seconds. At first I thought this was a commercial for animal food, etc. but then the logo for the state bank appears on the screen. Hence weird.
