Not just the shows but also the old commercials make me feel nostalgic. Am sure, everyone remembers the Dhara Oil Commercial, with a little boy who leaves his house but is ready to come back when Ramu kaka tells him that his mother has made 'jalebi'. The innocence of the child makes it special.
And the Nirma Washing Powder advertisement, was so famous especially the 'washing powder nirma, doodh si safedi nirma se aaye, rangeen kapda bhi khil-khil jaaye'. The Bajaj Scooter commercial was the perfect picture of India at that time - A husband teaching his wife how to drive, a son surprising his mother with a scooter and yes! a newly married couple driving off on a bajaj scooter with the 'just married' sign on it.
The Lijjat Papad and Big bunny ad, had the most catchy jingle, 'Mazedaar, lazzedaar, swad swad mein lijjat lijjat papad'. And the unforgettable 'Vicco Vajradanti' commercial, with wide smiles and again a catchy jingle.
'Kuch khaas hai hum sabhi mein, Kuch baat hai hum sabhi mein, baat hai, khaas hai, kuch swad hai, kya swad hai zindagi mein', that's the Gadbury Diary Milk commercial, where a girl runs to the cricket field dancing. And I was surprised, when i saw Shahid kapoor and Ayesha takia as kids in the Complan ad, 'am growing mummy'. The Titan commercial was a big hit, where a father gifts his daughter a titan watch on her wedding day, it was really sweet.
In the Asian Paints commercials, a soldier comes back home on Diwali and surprises his son. And 'Lifebuoy hai jahan, tandurusti hai wahan, lifebuoy', the lifebuoy commercial was pretty famous too. The Hajmola ad, was so good, with the kids in a hostel passing the bottle of Hajmola under their beds, when one of the kids gets caught and he says 'Hajmola sir'. The Bajaj bulbs commercials tops it all, with an old man recalling his childhood.
All these ads remind us of those times so vividly. Don't forget to check the links below.
