Oooh AAaah India - Lovely SEX ryhme encore!

Fellow Indians, please join me in voting the Pepsi Blue billion ad as the Lamest Ad of Indian advertising. Are they trying to sell their soft-drink contaminated with gas and pesticides, or trying to sell tens and thousands of shameless Indian public to the Indian cricket team. Oh, and talking about the Indian cricket team, they are all paid-handsomely by Pepsi even if they don't play for the next one year. Whether we win or lose doesn't matter, Pepsi is always there 2 support the Indian cricket team.

Tell me honestly Mr. Shahrukh khan (King Khan as u r often called), Saurav Ganguly (crying for a hopeless flying T-shirt comebac) & Indian cricketer, are you guys touching your conscious and promoting this kind of pathetic ad when you for sure know that you cannot find ONE BILLION Indians to support the Indian cricket team. Half of India's population is under the poverty line, small children don't get two meals per day to survive, and finding pure clean drinking water is a rarity. And even if it is pure, it is sold for Rs. 15/- and above. These celebrities mint money right in front of our eyes and what do we do, Support them further...wow!!

I've been a cricket fanatic from the time I was 3yrd old and love the game, but the way Pepsi and BCCI commercialize it sounds absolutely absurd & puts the game in jeopardy. This ad and promotion has crossed all heights of nonsense.

If one billion people are to form a community for the Indian cricket team, imagine the state of other sports, which is already in dire straits (I heard some like athletics, football and hockey are going to be funded by the world's wealthiest cricket governing body, the BCCI...itz just a rumour).

On looking @ these pathetic Pepsi ads closer, I noticed some hopeless frames:
  • A passionate Indian holding the tricolour - he looks like an Uruk-hai from the Lord of the Rings movie marching his troops.
  • A toothless grandpa trying to lift the morale of the Indian cricket team who currently no longer are Tigers @ home!
  • A shapeless FAT bellied person behind Mahendra Singh Dhoni....buuuurp!! Now thats what I call Diet Pepsi.
  • The entire crowd barging into a cricket stadium...wow I would love 2 c that happen in a cricket match in India.
  • Sorry Sachin, but I may not be ur fan when u wear the Pepsi logo on the side of your heart.
  • Last but not the least, the more I see Saurav dad and King Khan say that sentence "OOooh AAAaaah India", I go into a trance wondering if they are promoting a specially made Indian condom with speakers that booms aloud when you've passionate sex!!
Check out this quote from Punita Lall, Pepsi India’s Executive Director-Marketing absolutely true - "Why is it called blue billion? Said Lall, “Blue is the colour of the Indian team, and also that of Pepsi. ....” yuck now I'm never gonna touch Pepsi again. Now, you also know the reason why India loses most of its matches..too much consumption of blue colored water rather than pure calcium Milk!

Ckek this horrible Pepsi ad screened everyday in the ongoing ICC champions trophy

Indeed. It is the worst ad I've ever seen. Now look what happened to the Blue Billion. Look what happened to the team.

Celebs will endorse anything, if they're paid well enough. What do they care? They just want the money, and the publicity. I hope the blue billion fever dies out, as the Indian team has been rightly knocked out of the Champions Trophy :)
