“Good, but stereotypical”
This is what I thought of the ad when I saw it for the first time.

Hahah!
Maybe there are cliches. But it is not 100% stereotypical. Also, the ad was written by folks from Madras and among them I know are people who don’t like stereotyping the city. So.
I loved the re-written song and the voice.

At first, I was offended. Later the Ad grew on me.

I don’t like stereotyping. I hate it, in fact. But this ad isn’t quite like that. I would say that the title is too general. A day in a Certain Section of Chennai would have been better, but not quite catchy. And ad-makers definitely don’t wish their ads to be without catchy titles.
