Annu Kapoor’s Condom Ad Leaves the Internet in Splits: ‘Waqt Badal Diya, Jazbaat Badal Diye’
Veteran actor Annu Kapoor’s latest ad for Durex India garners hilarious reactions, with fans praising his unique delivery and unexpected appearance.
Veteran actor and beloved orator, Annu Kapoor, recently appeared in an advertisement for Durex India, and the internet cannot stop buzzing. Known for his versatile roles in films and his distinct anchoring style, Kapoor took a surprising turn by featuring in a commercial promoting the Durex Close Fit condom. The ad, filled with witty yet informative lines, caught viewers off guard, leaving them both amused and impressed.
In the video, Kapoor uses his signature deep and sincere tone to deliver a humorous monologue, likening condoms to a “true friend” that fits perfectly into your life and always protects you. He states, “Ek sachha dost wahi hai jo har paristhiti me aapke saath khada rehta hai. Wo aapki zindagi me aise fit ho jaata hai jaise wo aapke shareer ka hi ek hissa ho… Durex Close Fit condom, aapka sachcha dost.”
As soon as the video was shared by Durex India on Instagram, social media erupted with reactions. Users flooded the comment section with light-hearted responses, with one hilariously saying, “Ekdum se waqt badal diya, jazbaat badal diye,” poking fun at how Kapoor’s serious delivery transformed the mood of the commercial. Another user humorously remarked, “Rajshree Pan Masala is crying in the corner,” while others appreciated that the ad didn’t end with the tagline “swaad mei hi soch hai,” a familiar phrase from another popular ad campaign.
The ad’s caption by Durex India added to the fun, reading, “Nolan: 0, Annu Kapoor: 1… Collaboration,” playfully comparing Kapoor’s dramatic flair to filmmaker Christopher Nolan’s style. Despite the unexpected nature of the ad, many viewers appreciated the casual yet impactful message, with one user even joking, “Mujhe laga ki Cancer awareness ka ad hai… Tareeka kuch jyada hi kezual nhi tha?”
Annu Kapoor, who was last seen in, The Signature alongside Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhry, and others, continues to surprise fans with his wide range of projects. While, The Signature is available for streaming on ZEE5, it’s clear that Kapoor’s latest venture into commercial humor has further cemented his place as one of India’s most versatile performers.
