I thought this commercial for Durex was the best condom commercial I’d ever seen but it turns out the India is in hot pursuit of awesomeness. Via Buzzfeed comes this epic bit of Indian condom song and dance.
i don’t know if it’s the fact that I saw Slumdog Millionaire (and enjoyed it!) over the weekend or the fact that I’ve always dreamed of condoms singing and dancing to me, but this Bollywood-ish performance on the importance of condoms really spoke to me. From now on, whenever I have sex with an Indian gentleman, I will demand he do a song and dance while dressed like our pink ribbed friend above.
I can’t say I totally agree with the message though. If I were to make a similarly themed video, it’d probably feature dancing shoes illustrating how to kick a stomach or a new cell phone number doing the Charleston to avoid getting any “Uh oh” calls about my leaving a potential situation in a ladyfriend’s intimate areas. Now that’s practical knowledge for the American male.

hello
this above ad is to cater to the rural indian who has no understanding of english is rustic and only understands the vernacular telugu that ur faithfully can read too being from hyderbad city that is in the state of AP india, where this lingo is common so i wonder if this any way was for the american man more sauve in nature then the AP truck drivers
But the fact that its getting posted on youtube and the fact that it would cater to a larger audience across india it required english sub titles giving it such a global appeal, but 3 cheers and kudos to internet that an american lady say it and guess what liked it and had her inputs for it

i think the video could have been better choreographed. But then, when we are targeting to the rural masses it is message that need to be sent out and not much presentation.
Unlike in the urban youth culture is being targeted through facebook application like http://apps.facebook.com/findyourrubber/. and an desktop application http://www.sendsomerubber.com/
which has been developed by KamaSutra
