This New Grameenphone TVC is Breathtaking :')

Grameenphone may be a huge money sucking corporate company, but some of the ads they make are really touching. This latest one about a mother and her son who lives far away is absolutely wonderful. It made me cry a little.

This ad is more than just an ad. I mean, if you simply remove the company's logo and slogan from the ad, its art. It's life. It's a story. It's my story, It's your story. It's OUR story. It penetrates all your layers and hits you right in our innermost core.

Hats off, Amitabh Reza, hats off. Instead of just selling a product, you reach out to people's emotions. You make a REAL connection.

Man, I could've actually, really cried in the Eid prayers today. It was right there!
Everyone was crying all these fake tears and I'm like, don't cry Ayon....don't cry....don't cry......you're 24 years old...don't cry....don't cry...look at all the pretty patterns on the prayer mats....don't cry...don't cry.....this has happened before....don't cry....people are watching..don't cry.....you're a dude,stop acting like a sissy little girl!....don't cry...don't cry....don't cry.... don't cry.... Dammit, why are my hands shaking?
