Funniest Commercials 2009

Fevicol has been coming up with funniest ads which would even beat Manmohan Desai’s movies when it comes to reality and logic. Here is the latest ad for it’s own 50th Anniversary.

A small girl is preparing for a play she is acting in. She is portraying a male character for which she needs to wear a mustache. Unable to find anything else, she uses Fevicol to stick the mustache and as the tagline say ‘Fevicol ka jod hai tutega nahin’ she fails to get it removed even after the play is over. Now the girl is shown growing still with the mustache, gets married, ages and at last dies in an hospital. The moment she collapses cries of a newborn baby is heard from a nearby room. The nurse comes out with a baby with mustache depicting that even rebirth could not separate the mustache.

 

The ad shows different timelines in different screen sizes and color to give a sense of time passing by. But if you are going to check logical accuracy, I suggest don’t. Fevicol just completed 50 years of existence, the girl lived a long long life of 70-90 years, and still could use Fevicol in her childhood. This type of liberty has been freely taken by Fevicol in its ads.
