No one knows for sure what this ad is about. Is it meant to promote a fairness cream because it mostly has teenage girls in sour mood? Or a social ad for the girl child? Either ways, it has left Indian viewers perturbed. From the looks of it, this ad could be one of the biggest disasters in social media marketing.
The #ihateumom is already popular on Twitter and other social media with people scathing the ad. Here are some things people are saying about the ad:

This better not be a pimple or acne or fairness product. #IHateUMom #IHateThisAdAlready @_ihateumom

Came across #ihateumom teaser on tv. Whatever product/brand they want to market, its a really sick strategy. #loveumom

One can not say #ihateumom, it should be #iloveumom Pimple can be treated, nothing to worried about.
