Incredible India Creatives Need Incredible Cross-Cultural Disaster Control

Adrants reader Jinki brought our attention to this unfortunate tourism ad where a woman holding back her veil brightly admonishes watchers to fuck off.

Incredible India, indeed.

Yikes, this is a bad ad indeed.

But you are absolutely wrong. It's a custom in Northern India for women to wear veils and it's a cultural thing. Next time, do some research before you rant from your ass.

New York Punk, you moron. The post was about her middle finger, not the veil. Did you look at the picture? There was no diss on veils or culture.. no rant from anyone's ass. Just a comment about how unfortunate it was that the woman's middle finger stuck out. Creative team should have caught that. Shame on them. Who's the agency?

North Indian: Frank Simoes Advertising conceived the Incredible India campaign with a "guest is god" initiative. This is per an article I just read right at this moment:
