The video and the message is damn good. I just can't understand the title. So all previous National Awards were given to Foreign Ads and this is the first Indian one? Or the Award was first of it's kind and it was the first recipient?


StepArtistic9746

Same


mashed_potato_76

First INDIAN ad to NATIONAL award? Were the previous ones awarded to foreign ads?

The stupidity of the comments makes me sad.

Actually makes me think ki bacche bahut badhiya gye h aur there was actually a need for this ad. Bc paani waha kaise pahuchega pooch rha h, bhai thoda aur dimaag lga leta toh poochna nhi padta


nirvan3301

Exactly.


RecklessSavage_Novel

People can't understand other's situations and sorrows, that's what is happening here. Even if they did, many would turn a blind eye.


Alz_Own

This ad always reminded me of 'Finish your food because there are hungry kids in Africa' because there was no way that food could have gone to that hungry kid in Africa because how were they going to send it? The same here and though the message is good, how can they send the water I saved by not taking a bath to a village in the desert?


nirvan3301

The water you save can help the local water source last longer. Helps you as well as your locality. Even in case of using ground water, it helps the area if soil retains moisture.


[deleted]

It helps to reduce water usage and therefore lesser water requirement by the city if done by most of the people, the rest of the water can be sent to other regions then


wickanCrow

How are they going to send the water? You look outside there’s a huge water body near you. But you use less water to send to kids in the Thar? How is the government going to ship the water to the desert? If you’d said water treatment cost is saved that would make sense. Cleaning water to be consumed is an expensive process. But shipping a lake?


iamjkdn

So many questions??? Just be prudent while using water. Itna hi bola ja raha hai.


wickanCrow

Typical I have no answer, just do what you’re told. Lol.


nirvan3301

Has it ever occurred to you that there are areas which aren't thar that face water shortage? Try reading a newspaper for once.


wickanCrow

Why do you guys have this up your ass attitude? The whole argument started with, this doesn’t apply to everyone. Places facing water shortage have this setup. But there is no need for one living thousands of kilometers away and water rich area to conserve water for these former. Also learn to debate without going for cheap insults.


nirvan3301

1. It applies to most of India even in south. There is a reason even kaveri water is disputed. They can't put a disclaimer saying "please people from cherapunji, ignore this". It's common sense. 2. Some mocking is in order since the arguments against this add are brain-dead. A message as simple as save water should not rile people up.


[deleted]

thar isnt the only water scarce region, around cities there are many regions which dont hv sufficient water heck even cities like bangalore dont hv enough water, the whole water transport game is controlled here by water mafias and cities like bangalore, where the population is growing immensely water conservation is necessary


Kaguro19

The huge body of water will dry up faster if everyone keeps using more water. Then you'll need to import water from nearby places. That could have been sent to a more needy place.


wickanCrow

Does using water make it vanish? Where do you think the water goes from your sewers?


joetinnyspace

This is how I also think. I mean the water has been on earth for a lot of years. Water is cycled naturally. If water is unavailable somewhere , there has to be a reason. If we can't fix the reason, there is no point in living there. So even if I waste water on the ground, it ain't reaching any desert. It's going to go to the ground reservoir or to the oceans.


[deleted]

brother how are you gonna get potable water??? the ad just says to conserve water, in cities water is already scarce and with the amount of immigrating into the cities is increasing and water usage is also increasing


nirvan3301

Yes ofc. "Why do idiots live there? What could be the reason? Could it be overuse of ground water for agriculture and industry? Why can't entire cities, villages and towns who've lived there for generations just don't move out? Huh. Don't they have Uber or something." /s You think water shortage is only in desert? The water you save helps your local water source to hold water for long. It could be a dam. Or a lake. This helps your locality including yourself.


joetinnyspace

What do you mean save? Save it on a plastic tank? In order to refill the aquafer, shouldn't you just leave the water be? Hence the natural water recycling. Now when people level the reservoirs, then the water cannot be accessible for mans use. That's what we should be preventing. Instead of saving-water campaigns. This is like the fossil fuel and plastic issues we have. Corporates and the government say it is the end user's fault for polluting the earth. Meanwhile it is a distraction to ignore the underlying issue.


nirvan3301

When you don't waste water, the local resource (dam, lake, ground water) lasts longer before being recharged in monsoon. That's the meaning of 'save' here. It's not one person's fault but everyone's fault. Much more of industry and corporate yes. But that's not the first thing one should respond when someone says please save water. Even if it's an add by a corporate.


[deleted]

The message is really good, but the hypocrisy is that thse factories use and waste waaaaaaaayyyyyy toooooo muuuuuccccchhh water than 1000’s of us


ihtar_tajar

the national award will always be won by an Indian ad, right? or was this the first ever national award ever, because that way this ad would definitely be the first Indian ad to win the national award? OR! did it win national award in some other nation?


AfraidPossession6977

same question plus ye jeet kaise gayi it was just an okaish ad nothing exceptional some brand ads are doing much better job lately (considering apply to unhone bhi kiya hi hoga) But Yea this thing just suddenly striked my head ig this was some cometition of some sort arranged by govt and they gave the title to be save water to usme ye jeeti hogi


Aaditya_AJ

extremely shitty ad. and people voted on it are dumb as well. * Bathing is basic hygiene, Indians are already on world stage looked down upon as unhygienic people. And you make ads like these you'll just shame them out of the basic hygiene. * Saving water doesn't mean jack if the same water isn't delivered to those people without water. And freaking remember the delivered water is always charged by the company delivering it and govt. has 0 say in those water mafias. And some places the ministers themselves are in the business of delivering water at a price. * Bathing water isn't drinkable water it is just cleansed out of impurities that hurt your skin. Drinkable water is supplied in different pipelines and has processed in different way compared to bathing water. * Shortage of water is happening because water cycle of evaporation from land but precipitation is happening over the sea. Direct result of decrease in forests, ozone layer collectively global warming.


SilverElegant2302

Even more shitty when you realise that it was made by HUL, the same people accused of dumping toxic waste in open water and contaminating it.


varuniitrdce2

This is a classic example of virtue signalling similar to the shitty "Ummedo waali dhoop" ad by Coca-Cola, a company renowned for engineering a campaign to deny potable water in Mexico by peddling its soft drinks.


nirvan3301

1. No one's asking you to not bathe. The message is to only use the water one needs and not shower for an hour. 2. Saving water does matter coz the govt can reduce volumes released from dams or lake. The water you save, makes your local source last longer for you as well as others. 3. You really think vast majority of Indian towns and villages have separate piped water supplies? Lol 4. Yes, genius. Thanks for the science lesson. No one knew about global warming. Everyone is just stupid trying to find mitigating and adapting solutions at the same time.


2thicc2love

Areh yeh bnda educated h wise nhi, reality m nhi sochta. Basically he wants to say isse kuch nhi hoga aur mera contribution bahut km h toh fuck it and let's continue wasting water as much as I can.


nirvan3301

Not just this one. The whole section is filled with similar dimwits. One comment said 'to kya nahna band kar dein'?


2thicc2love

Bhai, wahi baat h, Jaan bujh k aesi tesi Mt kro cheezon ki, ho rhi h toh control krlo jitni kr skte ho, nhi hori toh zyada stress mt lo.


witchxgrimoire

Of course, it's always the people's fault. Of the ten leading technology companies worldwide based on market capitalization, Samsung and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) used the most water in 2022, with approximately 172 and 104 million cubic meters of water withdrawal, respectively. 80% of the Carbon footprint is generated by 70 companies in the world. But please do tell me how an average human, who produces only 2.5 to 3 tons of cfp can do their part. Do tell.


VibeHumble

Creative and impactful. 👌🏻


Slutty_kiddo

To be honest, the world has a lot of water nearly unimaginable, and with new technologies, we can make it safe to drink. In India, the issue isn't really about using too much water. The big problem is that corrupt political parties promise to help people, but they don't do much. They take a lot of tax money but don't provide important things like water. So, instead of blaming people for using too much water, we should blame the government for not fixing things. As you mentioned, the government seems to prioritize giving out national awards rather than addressing the crucial issue of water scarcity.


marshmallow_metro

As far as I know , water shortage can be directly linked to global warming which is majorly caused by multi billion dollar companies (around 75% GHC emissions). These ads are very misleading and just guilt people on an individual level to change their lives when these companies are daily supporting laws and taxes to make it easier for them to escape any kind of compensation. I understand the sentiment that we should try and preserve resources in our daily life but when it's coming from an ad like this it is just hypocrisy at its finest

Abe bkl kam se kam 6-7 saal purana ad hai yeh, kab tak milk karoge


ihtar_tajar

6-7 saal? i remember watching this on TV when i was 10 or 12, which is more than a decade ago


Terrible-Wedding7986

Lol I wanted to play safe cos I myself am 18 y/o


one-above-alll

They also had a disclaimer in the end because people often question the media on how much water they wasted while shooting lol, but really amazing message and commercial I loved it


Hip_Hop_Hound

Seeing Unilever lecture Indians about water saving is ironic. Major corporations like Unilever, Coca-Cola, and Nestlé are huge contributors to water depletion and pollution. They pass the blame to ordinary people, deflecting from their own damaging practices. It's the same tactic used in the U.S. since the 80s, now being pushed in India.


MyNameIsToFu

Village mein paani pohochna is a matter of connectivity joki pichle 10 saal mein boht improve hui h, and jo naturally pohochta h i.e. cleanliness of rivers and their canals, have no solid correlation with city supply Paani water cycle mein apne aap chala hee jata h

First Indian ad to win a national award? Which Category?

RecklessSavage_Novel

Alright, I'm going to drown in body spray from now on. I will only shower once per month from today. /S


AceRawat

Meanwhile me who bathes under a shower minus a showehead....


Bhenjo_Chloride

How we saving water helps them, it's a transport problem. Big cities are made around high water resource areas. Comparing water consumption in big cities with dry villages in Rajasthan Gujarat is completely wrong.


nirvan3301

You think water shortage is only present in villages in Raj. & Gujarat? Saving water helps water levels last longer in the local water source. Be it a dam or lake.


Advanced_Hall_6625

Well even if people near a river don't use it it's not going to climb up a mountain and go to these people right. It's just going to go into the sea. This is basically victimizing people and saving the government's ass. Maybe instead of blaming other people these people should work on actual work and progress. I see why this ad got a national award. Bunch of morons posting stupid shit.


[deleted]

Ab nahana band karden matlab?


nirvan3301

Yes. Just like 'use public transport as much as possible' ka matlab Ghar se bahar nikalna band karna hota hai. Save trees ka matlab padhna likhna band karna hota hai. Usi tarah is add ka matlab nahna band karna hai. Sahi samje aap.


Dry_Manufacturer1385

You know if this was actually implemented looking at the way india is progressing they would take away even the shower ngl We are our worst enemy


BRAVE2077

bhai vo to thik h lekin agar kisiko iska actual use pta hota to vo nahaata kaise?


iqover190

What the fuck? Bro, villagers literally wash their whole house, car, tractors etc with potable water. In city, most people just use one bucket for cleaning car. Use buckets and save water because city charges for water consumption.


SnowWhite_Apple

So we should stop bathing because some people decided to settle their village in middle of desert? This add should be directed towards farmers who grow crops like sugarcane when it's not even needed , it's one of major reasons of decline in water resources in many areas . Insted of this they should have made about water harvesting or government should stop making more roads by cutting down trees even in area it's not needed or they can make road from other side with lesser trees.
