Kelly Clarkson in a Vitamin Water commercial says she went to India, fine, whatever.
Then she goes on the play her “edgier music” and a cobra comes out. Can I say WTF???
The ad neither is funny nor makes sense, And now you wonder why I love desi commercials.

Agreed. Makes no sense, and a pretty dumb commercial at that.
Yeah..I was all WTF too when I saw it. Couldn’t they have at least put on a call-center’s headphones to be contemporaneously cliched?
Dumb commercial. All that was missing was a snake charmer and a flying carpet.
To put a positive spin on it, the cobra did bite (and presumably, kill) the talk-show host.
Although it somehow missed Kelly Clarkson, who we are to assume will go on to make a lucrative career of charming snakes after getting some training in India.
Finally, she’s good for something.
