Amul .... ka kya kehna!

I have checked this site more than a year ago. Today somehow, thought about it and here is this wonderful link. The Amul ads are just too good. Wonder which is the ad agency who design such wonderful ads.

I think in Bangalore, one can see these Amul Ad hoardings near Shoolay circle, near that departmental store - road towards Hosur.
