Advertising is the key to the enhancement of business but it has dark sides. Some commercial promotions influence the buying behaviour of individuals. Moreover, these products are of no use and misleading. Sometimes famous figureheads also endorse products that have no importance. Some of these ads have sensitive content that grabs the attention of viewers.
Here I want to talk about a publication that I do not like I saw it couple of months ago when I was watching a reality show on national television channel with my siblings and I left no stone unturned to condemn it.
It is about a Tabaco product. The leading character in the advert consumes that item and gets boatload of energy after that. The immense power he gains after the consumption, helps him to beat the robbers who are doing robbery from the bank.
I do not like it. The main factor behind it is that Tabaco products are detrimental to our health and can lead to disastrous repercussions. Under the influence of such adverts teenagers and youngsters can follow this imprudent approach which may be harmful to the current generation and posterity. I also write a letter to ministry to ban it, however no step is taken by the authority.
