Unicorn

Noun: unicorn 'yooni'korn An imaginary creature represented as a white horse with a long horn growing from its forehead. Though the popular image of the unicorn is that of a white horse differing only in the horn, the traditional unicorn has a billy-goat beard, a lion's tail, and cloven hoofs, which distinguish him from a horse. Interestingly, these modifications make the horned ungulate more realistic, since only cloven-hoofed animals have horns.

The New Thumsup Ad

"Muppai yellu gaa Thums up thaaguthunna - Kondarantaaru daanini taagadam thagginchaalani,
Inkondarantaaru ee vayasu lo naaku vishraanthi kaavalani! Motor cycle pi Araku asale vella koodadhani!! Nijaaniki Thumsup thaaginappudu naaku chaala aanandam kaluguthundhi - jorugaa parigethadam lo kalige anandam - Thumsup taagithe yekkuva kaalam jeevisthaano ledho naaku teliyadhu kaani okati maatram telusu - Aanandam tho aayusshu - Peruguthundani!"


Who ever has come up with this concept should be given an award for this year. Without the presence of the star (My beloved Chiru) the ad campaign still managed to capture my. Hats-Off of to the director. Also the ad focuses on the negative campaign against Colas. I don't mind the occassional glass of Cola even if it does contain a trace of pesticides - what the heck? Even vegetables today have alraming proportions of DDT!

No - I think he is not Vijay Chander - but the guy who dubbed the voice for this ad also dubbed Vijay Chander in some other films. Vijay Chander has lots of other movies as a claim to fame: Karunaamayudu, Vemana, Andhra Kesari, Bhadraachalam etc; I dont think the guy in the ad is Vijay Chander :)
