This one’s from the Times of India. I guess the backdrop of this ad is the day when Mumbai was flooded by almost 944 mm of rainfall in around 24 hours. Yep, you guessed it right. The day is the 26th of July 2005.
Indeed, it is so symbolic of India!

Yes, the video is amazing. Especially that part where the small boy teaches everyone a lesson in civic responsibility.

Yes, I heard that Lead India was a great show. Pity I couldn’t see it.

Yep, I was once stranded in bus outside Kanpur, UP, when a damn tree fell on the road. And cops won’t even let the people clear it. They wanted to chop the wood and take it home!

@ Nitin Pande
Heck, they wanted to take the wood home? It seems our cops are touching new heights of irresponsibility and inefficiency
