Ad of the week (Hero Puch)

The ‘Hero Puch’ was a stylish cousin of the ‘Luna’, The ad wasn’t as famous as you would expect, yet brings back memories of college going junta. Amir Khan rode one to college in the dhamakedar ‘Sarfarosh‘

Baba Bangali….

Dear Baba Bangali,

Ad of the week (Bramhaputra tea)

Brahmaputra Tea advert during SRK’s early days in the industry!.I must confess, I do not remember having seen this ad. Leave a comment if any of you have any memories. Wonder what would happen if you ask someone for ‘Assam ka amrit’!…

Gaana of the week (Woh Lamhe)

Another birthday gone…….

The year 2007 has been a good one, Much better than the previous years on the personal front I must add. Every field has its own share of moments be it Cinema, Cricket, Politics or anything else. I would prefer not to belittle them by attempting to summarize any, but would prefer to reflect on [...]
