LATEST TRENDS IN ADVERTISING

Moviegoers are familiar with sequels, from Spiderman and Speed in Hollywood to Dhoom and Munnabhai in Bollywood. Now, what if someone says Batman 2 is a sequel of Superman 1? It can't happen even in reel life, but it can, and does, happen in the nothing-is-impossible world of television advertising .

 The latest case in point is a commercial released by mobile handset maker Airfone, which is direct sequel of a recent Cadbury commercial, featuring the same actors in the same costume. The Cadbury commercial, which is still being aired as part of its new 'shubh aarambh' campaign, has a boy asking for a piece of Cadbury Dairy Milk bar from a girl at a bus stop before doing the 'shubh kaam' of offering to drop her home.

The Airfone advertisement for its dual handsfree music phone shows the same couple in the same costume travelling together in a bus. "This phone has innovation of two audio jacks so that two people can share music playing on the phone. Love is an important aspect of sharing and this (the Cadbury commercial) was one of the rare ads based on love and we worked out our campaign on it," said Vishal Chitkara, director at Airfone.

With half the story already told by Cadbury, Airfone also saved on costly airtime as its commercial is just 20 seconds long, half of Cadbury's 41-second advertisement.

But the point worth considering is that people at large still associate the brand ambassadors with Cadbury's ad and not with the ad of Airfone. So what do you feel should companies follow this new trend of advertising or it's just a fad to go off in thin air soon

The chaos, the confusion, the controversies... everything else was swept aside by the spirit of celebration as the most expensive Commonwealth Games ever staged an extravagant farewell party witnessed by a capacity crowd of 60,000 at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium and millions of television viewers worldwide on Thursday. There was no pause to the applause as the evening encompassed in its sweep a rainbow of revelry... from a touching pre-show performance by specially-abled children to a moment in the limelight for the thousands of volunteers associated with the October 3-14 event. As the participating national contingents — starting with Australia and followed by India, for which Gagan Narang was the flag-bearer — trooped into the stadium, cheers erupted from the galleries; undoubtedly, the athletes were the heroes here, as is the case at any sporting event, and not administrators such as Suresh Kalmadi whose speech — in a repeat of the public response on the opening night — was received with jeers.Delhi 2010 mascot Shera, conspicuously absent during the inaugural gala, made a grand appearance before the Commonwealth Games Federation flag was handed over to 2014-edition host nation Scotland, a special segment for which featured bagpipers in tartan kilts and the Loch Ness Monster. From a single bronze medal in the 1934 edition to a total tally of 101 as CWG host in 2010, from glitches galore in the build-up to the event to a last-day show that has received compliments from international visitors… India has — yet again — showcased both potential and promise.

There are still many issues to be addressed which hopefully the officials don't forget

San Jose, Oct 14: The Chile mine rescue successfully ended after a gruelling last 22 hour 30 minute operation leading to all 33 miners, trapped 2000 feet underground for 69 days, hoisted to freedom.
Emotions ran high not only at the San Jose Copper-Gold Mine where the kin of the miners gathered to welcome the men back, but also across the world as the recue operations were closely watched across the globe.

What a classic example of team work, will power, belief (in oneself and God), never given in attitude and leadership.
Hope the people who spread hatred and crime learn from this incident when the whole nation got united to save each life trapped underground
