Oh btw, Amitabh Bachchan is down with colitis and hospitalized. I think it's all due to overwork. I wish him a speedy recovery and hopefully he takes a long holiday. Though yes, I will miss his movies for that duration.

Dinosaur poster
I have to chip in about Abhishek Bachchan's Ford Fiesta billboards. Seriously what is it about ? A bored looking AB, giving awkward poses and towering over a tiny car. It is very similar to some Dinosaur movie poster. And as far as I can remember this is his first ad. How did he get it ? More like BigB was overloaded with his share and so passed on some of the ads to SmallB.

Ohhh....boring AB? I didnt find him like that..but yeah...not sure if they are using him rightly in their ads. I am sure the ads as well as billboards can be better.
I liked the Innova ad with Aamir. Thats the perfect utilization of a star, i feel.
Oh yes, Innova ad was something to talk about. Did you see their parody of that ad in "Great Indian Comedy Show" - using SRK ? Good one.
Hee, hee. You're right - he DOES sort of look like a good-looking Godzilla, ready to take that car apart. What IS the point of him being giant? If anyone gets to be a giant, it should be his dad, right?
hmm....
Interesting observation. Actually - if you see purely from the perspective of communication theory - billboards are supposed to attract attention. He does (even with his bored look). To that extent it worked.
However, I am sure many would wonder the same way that you do - so they are not necessarily creating the positive image they wanted to.
Bad start as a model.
