Amul-ya moments!
Bread and butter of Indian ads
Bharat Dabholkar's brain-child that has sustained itself through the years and retains that freshness about it. Click around and you won't be able to stop. For you news junkies, I thought a particularly enjoyable exercise was to go back 10-12 years, click around, and recount the events. Startlingly, not much has changed! The butter was good too...

My reminiscences of a tour de farce that shaped early works of the kowboy including a Deutsch skit very unsubtly titled 'ein skizze von bollywood' to damp reviews from B. ich-hieBe Subramanian
I agree that Amul commercials were some of the most creative ones around. I think the general level on desi TV is very high - I would rank it above American TV in the humour department. I think our vibrant folk theatre traditions have a lot to do with this.
Even among the Ranchi adivasis (whose "cultural shows" used to be broadcast on local TV) there's a well developed and unique sense of humour.
And the cheese...
Yup. Amul cheese and pistachios used to be my subsistence food for a time at IITM.
