Amul Baby Ads

The Amul Butter campaign with it's cute moppet has aroused interest since the last 4 decades. The 'utterly butterly' gal was born in 1966 and has been ruling in the hearts of all Indians since then. Amul Ads have no flashy digital hoardings just the same old painted ones. Up-to-date with current issues around the world and presenting them in most humorous way and most importantly giving the right placement to Amul Butter in the ad. Amul ads are prominent on account of their topicality and element of pun.

The ads introduced the concept of consumer humour or serious things spoken in jest in the advertising fraternity for the first time. Be it topical events related to politics, television, films, celebrities, cricket, economy, environment, festivals, foreign affairs, great Indians, Internet, kids, lifestyles, music, sports, strikes or urban life - the Amul ads have covered them all.
