Eveteasing, fleecing foreign tourists... Coca Cola seems to be going soft!

IIPM PUBLICATION
On the other hand, the Aishwarya Rai ‘Thande Ka Tadka’ ad released in March this year, is not only comical and mischievous, but contemporary as well. The traditionally-dressed Aishwarya is shown as a playful, tongue-incheek girl turning the tables on eve-teasers with her own version of the game.

The commercial targets the changing face of Indian society, cashing in on the popularity of Aishwarya Rai with the present generation. Needless to say, the concept by McCann Erickson delivers great product positioning, while subtly addressing the social evil of eve-teasing. Prasoon Joshi demonstrates, as always, his uncanny genius to conceptualise adverts tapping into the pulse of the Indian consumer leaving his mark, till he engineers his next brainchild! In fact, Coca Cola’s commercials are forever replete with the element of humour, and even as the bond between Coca Cola and its ubiquitous trump card ‘Thanda’ remains intact, the beverage giant tries to associate the product with scalp-shearing wit and improvisatory flair. And desi moves to urban grounds, maintaining flavour with élan.
