I love to gossip and without doubt Koffee with Karan happens to be one
of my all time favourite show. With the fourth season on air, either by hook
(dish TV) or crook (you tube) I manage to catch the show every week.
Now that’s the factual part of today post and for the intriguingly
silly part, and it certainly has to something with my little one and KK4. Smera
is at a stage where this chat show is just not interesting or in
her words, is not funny! But she loves to watch the ads that come in between
the chat show. That too should be a no-brainer as that is really the aim every marketers
want to achieve.
No matter how far she is or how engrossed she is in her play, she
would run and come to watch a particular ad that comes in between show. The ad
I am referring to here is Forest Essentials also happens to be one of the main
sponsors of the show. If you have not seen the ad as yet, then this would just
be right time to see and continue reading.
For the first few times, Smera watched this video with great attention. It made wonder what is about this particular ad that Smera is so intrigued about. After watching the ad over and over the last few weeks, she asked me a question
Smera: Mamma what are they cooking in the forest?
Me: Hmm (with great effort), maybe they are making a shampoo
Smera: No, I think they are making a chicken curry in the tree!
Me: Yes that could be, looks like these tribal girls are making
chicken curry!
Maybe they aimed at making this as an extremely exotic and natural
product but to a three year old, it came across as some girls in the jungle
making chicken curry in a tree.
Good or bad, it did leave an impression and here I am talking about
it, a classic case of a imperfect recall value!
If you are going to do product testing, you have a guinea pig right here :)
ReplyDeleteYou mean yourself ?? or Smera ?? it definitely is not going to be me :D
DeletePersonally I like this ad. And Smera's idea of making chicken curry in the forest ...with all the natural raw ingredients....It should be so yummy !
ReplyDeleteTo be honest I am not a big fan of the ad myself but Smera's interpretation has made it interesting for me :D
DeleteHaha even I don't understand some of these ads. You have to keep guessing as to what they are actually selling :) Even my kiddo loves the ads that come between shows.
ReplyDeleteHa ha ... i think kids love the ads more than the program itself ...
DeleteHaha...thats the innocence of the little child seeing the spices and masala items :). Personally I like this ad since it depicts something nearer to nature :)
ReplyDeleteSo true Uma ... Smera is so used to seeing me using pestle and mortar to grind the masala ...
DeleteYou can call it innocent interpretation of a child's mind ��
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Farah .. they are at their creative best at this age .. I hope and pray they remain like this forever...
Deletebut give it a thought how wonderful it would be .. cooking chicken curry in a jungle :)
