While the news media reflects on current affairs and trends, one wouldn’t be incorrect in saying that the Amul Butter billboards are an excellent mirror of what’s top-of-mind in urban India. So even as headlines and captions in print do their jobs well, there’s nothing like the Amul ad, crafted by Rahul da Cunha and his team at da Cunha Communications for the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd.
From the time he started out in the late ’80s, Sachin Tendulkar has been at it… breaking virtually every record at the book and regaling us with his splendid performance and commitment on the field. And off it.
Last week, MxMIndia brought you the Amul ads with Rahul Dravid… here are a silver bunch of Amul ads telling you the Tendlya story. For his feats on field, and some off the field too. Enjoy!
