If it sells, sings, shouts, or scrolls – I am mad about it. Mad About Ads is born from an unapologetic love for all things advertising. From nostalgic TVCs and bold billboards to the reels that stop your scroll or that oddly specific notification you got during lunch, I believe ads are not just promotions, they’re pop culture, persuasion, and sometimes poetry.
This platform is where I decode, critique, and celebrate the world of advertising. We’ll talk jingles that live rent-free in your head, campaigns that shaped consumer behavior, and creative ideas that deserved better (or didn’t). Ads aren’t just selling products, they’re telling stories, reflecting our times, and shaping trends. And I’m here to explore all of it.
Whether you’re an ad-lover, a brand-builder, or just ad-curious, follow along to see how much impact 30 seconds, a few words, or one bold visual can create.
Ads – They are culture. They are emotions. They are storytelling.
Take Zomato, for instance. You are not hungry, but suddenly, your phone buzzes:
“Paneer is red. Coke is blue. We’re bored. Let’s order something new.”
That’s not just a notification, it’s mind-reading wrapped in wit.
Ads like that don’t just sell food; they sell a moment, a mood, a connection.
“Mostly we don’t just remember ads – we remember how they made us feel.”
This site is my playground to analyse, applaud, and occasionally roast the creative madness behind the messages that surround us. Expect deep dives into iconic jingles, forgotten gems, and campaigns that became cultural milestones. Whether you’re in the industry, aspiring to join it, or just love decoding creativity, this is your place.
“The ads we grew up with become the memories we don’t realize we have kept.”
Follow along – because once you start seeing ads the way I do, they’ll never feel the same again.
You’re on the road or in the metro, lost in thought, and suddenly a giant ad catches your eye. Just a line, maybe a striking visual, but it makes you feel something. You didn’t go looking for it. It found you. And in that split second, it spoke louder than the city noise around you.
That’s the magic I’m here to unpack.
Mad About Ads is where we dive deep into the ads that shape our culture and conversations – from roadside hoardings and metro panels to the tiniest sponsored posts. We’ll decode what works, why it sticks, and how ads often say more about us than the product they’re selling.
I write, observe, and share unfiltered opinions about the ads that shape our world.
From billboards to push notifications, nothing escapes my curious eye.
Hop on this journey with me. Read the blogs, relive the nostalgia, and rethink the next ad you see.
