India indeed is a free country, but it feels like some regulations and boundation on a few things are strictly required. Currently we are talking about the recently released ad of Layer’s Shot. Till now you must have already come across the ad and it’s controversy because it’s really viral on social media.
The latest ad of Layer’s Shot includes a short conversation between four men. It takes place while the men are out for shopping where a young woman is also standing near them. One of the four guys say ‘Hum Chaar Aur Yeh Sirf Ek!’, another guy adds to it, ‘Toh Shot Kaun Lega?’ (We are four and it’s only one. Who will take the shot?’.
Hearing this, the girl is surprised and reacts in a similar way. And then it’s revealed that the guys were actually talking about ‘Layer’s Shot perfume’ and not the girl.
The ad is attracting massive criticism and trolling on social media. People are calling out the body spray company for making such disgusting ads and specially promoting rape in this one.
