Promises, promises

Indian advertising has me quite amused. Here are some examples:
skin whitening creams that make one smarter,
jewellery that makes her forget true love and find happiness in an arranged marriage.
Black tea that kills the influenza virus (see photo).
Glucose sweets that enable your child to outrun the savage dog.

And,lasty, the brochure for the Bangalore City Tour (Bangalore Rounds), which we signed up for (how could we not?!):

"A dream passage through a city with a golden past, a fabulous present and a promising future-
"9 hours of non-stop surprises, discoveries, fun and adventure.
"A heady mix of history and LORE, ecstasy & thrill, enriching your soul, soothing your mind and your body.
The salubrious environs ..."

You get the picture?
It was a good tour, but they did exaggerate a bit.
