Pierce Brosnan ‘James Bond’ endorsing Pan Masala is all what it took Indian Twitter to go crazy!
Pierce Brosnan, best known for James Bond 007 always had his hands on guns and girl, until DDB Mudra Group roped him in for endorsement of Pan Bahar.
The man who loves martini more than anything is James Bond. But have martinis been replaced by pan masala? Well, from what India saw this morning when they reached out for their newspaper, this pretty much looks like the scene. On Friday morning, when world came to terms with the fact that Pierce Brosnan is featured in a chewable-tobacco ad, almost everyone had floor slipped from under their feet. Pierce, best known for James Bond always had his hands on guns and girl, until DDB Mudra Group roped him in for endorsement of Pan Bahar.
Trending Now
The 63-year-old Hollwood-actor Pierce Brosnan, is all over the bill boards and full-page advertisement on newspaper. The video commercial in the ad campaign, uploaded on youtube has already gone viral even quicker than a viral video. “Class never goes out of Style” is the brand line mouthed by Pierce in the Pan Bahar advertisement. On Twitter, people shared snaps of newspaper ads, bill boards and jokes expressing their shock and disblief. Who would have imagined their favourite Bond star to see him in a Pan Masala ad. But here we are, talking about it.
In a minute-long TVC, Pierce is seen as Bond who is on a mission probably, and the moment deserves to go down on history, for he is seen using guns to finish off the bad ones, rather he use a can of Pan Bahar as a weapon. And this is how people reacted to it:
Two things I was pretty sure I would never see in one frame together… Pierce Brosnan and Pan Bahaar Pan Masala… https://t.co/KNhPBMfKwm

Never take your career highs for granted. One day you’ll be James Bond and the next, you’ll be selling paan masala to foul-mouthed Indians.
