Should have saved this terrific visual concept for a better idea. The actual product shot and tag line are the anti climax in this ad.

I know what can stop the merc- Its totally atrocius ugly looks.
BTW nice execution... would have saved it for a more suitable product

drive it sometime. you'lll love it. its a fantastic 4X4.

ideas....30 minutes nahi toh free.

sometimes you just have to applaud kick ass art direction and leave it be. The idea could have been better but the art direction is so cool that who cares? Really, who cares? It's cool. So is the music.

It's a beautiful ad for a gorgeous and incredibly tough car.

Great art direction and production, but the product does not connect with it to me.

wow, I buy it!!

the ad, the ad.

This ad is nice, great animation/sound. Car looks great. Pity it's a massive fuel-burning behemoth.
