Hands Off, Nando’s!

Slow clap for Nando’s latest ad in India.

Sometimes, actually most of the time, I believe that companies let their inner sixth grader out to crack some dirty jokes, you know, just to get it out of their system. One can imagine them huddled in a corner having a hearty laugh over an innuendo or even (literally) ROFL-ing over a poop joke. If you ask them which planet of the solar system is their favourite, they’d probably scream ‘URANUS’ in a chorus. And maybe that explains Nando’s print ad, on 26 March, which rankled even National Conference leader Omar Abdullah.

Dear #Nando's is your food so inedible that you have to rely on lines from a bad C grade movie to sell it? pic.twitter.com/q4eoXRJt1V
