Over the years, there have been some memorable TV ads focussed on Holi. Below are few of those ads.

1. Surf Excel #RangLaayeSang | This Holi, Let Colours Bring us Together!

The above ad is the latest from Surf Excel before Holi 2019. The ad aims to promote communal harmony and features children enjoying holi to the hilt as a girl takes all the balloons to help his friend get to the masjid to offer prayers, but not before telling him, "Baad mein rang padega". The boy, dressed in all white, replies with a smile.

2. Ghadi Detergent | IS HOLI SAARE MAEL DHO DAALO:

Holi is to enjoy and have fun, but that does not mean one taking advantage of the situation. A few people take the line "Bura naa mano Holi hai" a bit too  seriously and cross the line of decency. This ad shows them how to put such people in their place, in case they try to get too colourful for the good of others.

3. Alpenliebe Holi Ad | Ye toh Holi Manaye, Chuna Lagaye

What's Holi celebrations without kids and their pranks? This ad, belonging to Alpenliebe, a filled candy which was a rage among, as they say, the 90s and 2000s kids, brings back the old memories along with pleasant recollections of our celebrations.

4. Vanish Holi Ad | Bura Naa Mano Vanish Hai

This ad, which may seem like a weird combination of Alfred Hitchcock's aesthetics meeting the antics of David Dhawan, is nonetheless the brilliant.  The ad manages to bring to screen the fear every person has to doesn't wish to play on the day, and the connivance that his/her friends will undertake to ensure their put colours on his. One of the many ads that manages to make emotional connect with the audience.

Holika Dahan this year was observed on March 20 and the Rangwali Holi will be celebrated on March 21. The countdown is over; children and elders are all giving their final touch for the main festivity. Hope you liked our choice of ads. We wish our readers a safe and amazing Holi.
