What a horrible advertisement!!!!!! A pure marketing gimmick for Reliance India Mobile and a rock solid insult of our Indian cricketers!!!!
The Plot: Sehwag is batting like always on the field, and the Indian team is losing!!! Sehwag's small pal sitting in the audience is keeping his Reliance Mobile safe for him. Suddenly, it rings and Sehwag's pal answers it and hey presto! It's a video MMS sent by Sehwag's mom to her ladla!!!
Sehwag's small pal runs right upto where he is batting (there's no cop in between to stop him!!!!) and hands him the phone. 'KARLO DUNIYA MUTTHI MEIN!!' (which is Reliace's slogan, I may add!) says his mom in the video. This immediately encourages Sehwag and he starts hitting sixers, bringing the team success as they are about to lose the match!
What a totally illogical commercial!! Reliance Infocom should be sued by the BCCI for depicting that players are so distracted while on field, batting. Our man Sehwag also finds time to watch his mom on the phone in front of thousands of people while the bowler probably just stands there killing time, while Sehwag says hi-hellos to his Mom!
One totally totally horrible and huge mistake in the plot of this ad which proves that the admakers have no sense of scriptwriting and screenplay is that why would Mommy Dearest MMS her son if she knows that he is batting on field?!?!?!
What a waste of airtime and airwaves for sure!!!!!
