Call me a gonner but I cant help but be affected by the biasness of the advertisement. I mean he s retired and nw has it easy and she has to let go of the cook, the maid (nd wht reason! tumhari exercise ho jayegi…wht abt ur exercise??). I am reminded of this moving play “Ma bhi kabhi retire hoti hai” where the mother’s role was played by the evergreen Jaya Bhaduri/ Bacchan, which taked abt the plight of women, hw their work given the least recognition is unending, no off days, no fixed hours and certainly no retirement…
And even if we forget this aspect of the advertisement then what abt “tumhe Singapore jo ghumana hai!!” as if he’s not gonna go with her and get to c the place and njy it…grrr
The part on “sirf ek baar maine kuch maanga hai, who bhi tumhare baap se tumhara haath” reminds u the grt Indian tradition of a woman’s life being decided by her father/ brother (nd mind u not just any member of the family, esp not the women)
And finally on a lighter note the way the woman reacts and lightly punches him in the upper arm was choow chweet, it’s a very typical way for women of that generation and certainly brings back wonderful childhood memories…lets say for me this nd the jingle makes it worth tolerating the advertisement…differ/ outraged/itching to say something about it, feel free to write in and I d love nothing more to hear the other side of the view, ofcrz a little less than some1 telling me tht they agree…
