Army furious at ‘bollywood babes’ advertisement

THE ARMY HEADQUARTERS PULLED up its recruitment centre in Shillong for placing a billboard carrying pictures of Bollywood actresses with defence background to attract youth to join the force.

The advertisement, which had pictures of Gul Panag, Priyanka Chopra, Sushmita Sen, Nupur Mehta and Celina Jaitley, said: “If you want to have beautiful and successful daughters, join Indian Army”.

The officers in the recruiting centre had not taken permission for placing the billboard and were pulled up for this act, Army sources said. The issue came to light after people started putting the pictures of the advertisement on social networking websites such as Twitter and Facebook. The parents of all the actresses featured on the billboard have been in one of the three Services.

This underscores the need for professionalism and not placing a square peg in a round hole.

Whoever thought of this concept of attracting the youth needs a trip to the shrink.

Sorry! Couldnt help myself!

Dont blame you. it was silly in the extreme.

Dont go off on a tangent. Morale has nothing to do with recruiting posters. It has to do with a whole lot more.

Yes it was a stupid Idea which has been rightfully set right.
