Soft Drink Ad Wars again!
Posted by Prashanth | Filed under Commercial Clips, I think therefore I watch
Remember I had criticized Pepsi’s Youngistan Ad campaign a while ago? Looks like people at PepsiCo. India have read that post and are improvising better on the word Youngistan and giving out better ads which still don’t say anything Pepsi’s refreshing taste or feel!
And after getting themselves embarrassed by Coca-Cola with the spoof made by Sprite, PepsiCo. did have its ego suffering inside a deep coal(read Coke :D) mine. They had to prey on someone, someone week enough to just bring back that lost pride… Well, Thums Up, with those wild parkour and really dumb car drive ads that too featuring Akshay Kumar (Hindi) and Mahesh babu (Telugu) dose promote its beverage with some passion. So there you have it, Pepsi had found its bakra (Read: Hindi for a goat about to be slaughtered!) in Thums Up and the whole soft drink war has become a lot more entertaining.
Have a look at the ad as well as the original ad that was spoofed below…

Expect more spoofs like these coming up in the near future. Looks like I do have a reason to watch TV these days, eh?
