Axe – Chocolate Man

idea posted by Meena Deshmukh Product/Brand Manager, Videocon Inds

The Indian government suspended a television advertisement for Axe men's deodorant, made by Mumbai-based Hindustan Unilever Ltd. The ad shows a man transform into a walking chocolate figurine after spraying himself with Axe's Dark Temptation deodorant. As he walks through the city, women throw themselves at him, licking and biting off various parts of his body. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting stopped the ad from broadcasting after receiving a complaint from a viewer who found offensive a shot of a woman biting the chocolate man's bottom.

Yes, this ad should not be telecast in future & banning of such ads is the correct decision.

Exposer is everywhere in the entertainment industry and i donot know why government has appointed a censor committee if they are not capable to take any actions.

True one its a formal body and chack the actions or the clips only those are against the government only. Everything is for money not for social change and no one wants to change.

Add your argument:

Amul Macho

idea posted by Sasi Dash Art Director/Sr Art Director, U TV

An Amul Macho ad which shows a young woman comes to a river to wash her husband's clothes. She pulls a pair of men's boxer shorts from the laundry pile and begins to wash them by hand, giving sultry looks to the camera and throwing her head back in a suggestive manner. The ad ends with a breathy female voice saying: "Amul Macho. Crafted for fantasies."

It shows Indian woman in bad light. Quiet disgusting, it seems to be made for ppl craving for such fantasies.

Add your argument:

i thing the problem in field is differ according to its geographical location.. everytime quality doesn't matter with that the concept/thought of that very place is also to be count.. for that corporate house should count the ground level rather than literature concept..

AC Black Whisky

idea posted by Dayanand Deshpande Senior Consultant, Ernst & Young

In the ad a man takes a sip of his drink and looks at an attractive woman on the other side of the room, and her neckline gets lower and diminishes with every sip.As he sips for the kill, he finds his shirt open. The woman is also playing the same game. The tagline says, Kucch Bhi Ho Sakta Hai.. The ad was subsequently taken off air.
