Grameenphone Advertisement starring Shakib.
Just few days ago, while coming from school, I just observed an advertisement starring Shakib showing that he is talking in a cell phone.
This is how fast fame can make a person famous. Really loved it.

Saw that advrtsmt on the day of Ipl Auct.
Grameen phone makes good ads but I think they didn't highlight Sakib that much.
Because the other 2 models are unknown to every1 whereas Sakib is known worldwide.
Remember those ads of Mash,Shahdt of pacer hunt.

Ah, the Kingfisher ad is a personal favorite. " কিন্তু তিনি কি সেসব তেল খান? না আআআআ - তিনি খান কিংফিসার তেল" or something along those lines.

I saw that add... and yer I was kinda shocked to see Shakib in an add. But my must say, that add is the most stupidest Grammenphone add I've seen. No one talks... they just smile and they don't even talk on the phone. They just hold the phone to their ear and smile :S

Ya!
This add is getting repeated too many times.
Maybe because this is a short time Grmnphone offer.
I think they have shown SAkib more than we have seen him all his career.(in matchs)

they are not sure how long sakib will remain great...looking at past Bd players...so they are using the ads as much as possible.
but hopefully sakib will not be like the others

Yup! Found it :
http://boishakh.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5719
It's the first one on the list (Grameenphone matro 49 poysha/Min). You do need to have an account with Boishakh to watch the video. I recommend you to open an account anyway as it is a great site with a huge database of BD entertainment (including HQ natoks, ads, music videos etc.), news and discussion.
I gotta admit it is a pretty lame ad. You would expect better from GP. Why would you get the country's best cricketer and have him on screen for only 5 seconds and have him not speak at all.
