Hi, guys...am back....but this time I'm serious .....no silly jokes this time around....I shall make up for that next time around :-).........
Anyways, today as I was searching for a particular video in youtube....I came across that beautiful ad of "dhara"....remember that cute little kid..leaving home and then being entyced by "Ramu kaka" to come back home and have "jalebi".......I hope many of you may remember that ad......fond childhood memories those.....so simple yet so special .....these ads were simple and low budget ads compared to the ads nowadays, that comprise risky stunts by professionals.....yet those ads seemed to be so effective to drive the point home......it felt like those ads touched your heart......and one gets a feeling that the ones responsible for making these ads...didn't care about how many "Dhara" packets they sold...but rather focussed on the "feel good" factor......
I am posting a list of certain ads which were "special" to say the least:

This list is not according to any rating,but a rather random compilation.......I know many of you might recall some other classic ad that I might have missed out.....do pass on the link........
For the time being ...watch these ads.....and go visit ur childhood again.....You never know some fond memories might rush back.....and if you feel any bit better or even nostalgic about the bygone days...feel free to share the same.......
A new dawn might be awaiting the us, but the sunset of yesteryears was ever so special, ever so close to the heart.......going thru these commercials, you might have a feeling of meeting a long lost friend all of a sudden.....savour the moment till it lasts.........
Shall be back with some other post some other day......as of now...enjoy these ads....and do suggest any ad that I might have missed out......till then...see ya!!!!!!!!!
