Real men don’t...

Bavaria campaigned for its beer based on the concept ‘real men’. It said that the real men, apart from doing and not doing certain things, drank Bavaria beer. Bavaria’s promotional clip was quite good.

During promotional campaigns, the promoters target the cinema hall goers. We too got few gifts at Pathe. A flat mate got an Axe click (the Ben Affleckwala mechanical counter). We got a couple of packs of Ice Age 2 playing cards. And, for this particular Bavaria campaign, we got some T-shirts with cool captions. The captions are:

Real men don’t wear tie
I wear tie for my monthly application status meetings. It is fine on cooler days. But, wearing tie is a pain in summer. My flat mates wear tie to office everyday. Poor guys.

Real men don’t shave
I guess Abhishek Bachchan religiously follows this motto. Haha… Shaving is something I hate the most. I hate it because I am scared of it. I end up cutting my face while shaving.

Real men don’t dance
I too think so. Hail Dharam paaji and Sunny paaji. I believe that legs are meant to be used to run away from mad street dogs, to open doors when your hands are full with grocery bags and to kick hmmm… football. But, dancing… Ewww.

nirwa,
i think that the cliche is broken. nowadays it seems men are taking pride in crying buckets on tv in front of the whole world :D
yesterday i watched the songs of gupt... bobby was ferociously dancing in them... as though he was proving a point that someone in his kandhaan can shake his legs well... hahaha..

chitra,
should they do something special?? i think they are supposed to live a peaceful life like everybody else, without troubling others and then die one day.
