From Playlists to Foreplay.

What started of as a casual youthful love story that escalated quickly into a somewhat condom commercial that could not afford Sunny Leon.




We start with the two meeting first on a very lonely subway, which has no ads on the walls.
They get on the same train and sit opposite each other. Now we all know that women never leave their phones away from them, they are constantly texting or fidgeting on something with their phones. They never look up, or out of the window or talk to anyone beside them. The good people at Gaana felt that was not true about young girls and portrayed out leading lady here without a phone or earphones for music. (Let's assume she's one of those pious praying women you see when you travel)

Truth is, she isn't. She gets on with her serious eye flirting game and before you know it manages to make the boy create new playlists everyday. Poor guy.





In the first TVC the boy makes faces at the woman who tells him to zip it, question here is how did he hear her, with his earphones on and him singing along! WTF!

In popular appeal to the youth of today, poking fun at adults ranks in the top 5 of typical youngster douche traits.


The next TVC has him dropping in at her workplace and then a sudden trip to an exotic hill side. Tread carefully boy. Every one of these TVC's have the girl with her hand on her face and giggling, for lord knows what reason. As for the boy has the same expressions in all the ads.



He forgets everything on seeing her in that pink bikini, by now all connections to listening music have gone away. This ad is all about intimacy.
