"Tracks Aren't For Jogging": Railways Officer Slams Ad Featuring Milind Soman
NDTV
"I believe it's the railway track in the Borivali National Park. But running on the track of Indian Railways is fundamentally wrong. The messaging of the ad is not correct," the officer said.
Indian Railway Accounts Service officer Ananth Rupanagudi slammed an advertisement by sportswear manufacturer Puma featuring actor and model Milind Soman. The fitness model is seen in the advertisement running across railway tracks, sparking controversy on social media. Mr Rupanagudi shared the advertisement on X and slammed the company saying that the tracks are not meant for jogging. He also requested that the company include a disclaimer in the video. I have a problem with this ad, @PUMA. Railway tracks aren't meant for jogging and it's treated as trespassing. @milindrunning - you should have verified this before shooting this ad. @PUMA, please put a disclaimer on this ad. #IndianRailways#Advertising@RailMinIndia@RPF_INDIApic.twitter.com/gSqa58BNR4
A beautiful aerial shot of a forest opens the viral advertisement. Then, Milind Soman appears in the frame as he jogs along the road that goes through the woods. He stretches a little and keeps running across the area, which also includes a railway track. Mr Soman is seen sweating when he traverses a tunnel at the end of the video.
Mr Rupanagudi said on X, "I have a problem with this ad, @PUMA. Railway tracks aren't meant for jogging and it's treated as trespassing. @milindrunning- you should have verified this before shooting this ad. @PUMA, please put a disclaimer on this ad." He also tagged the Ministry of Railways in the post.
