Dhara Cooking Oil Jalebi – Nostalgic Old Doordarshan advertisement

Here is The Dhara Cooking oil advertisement where the boy runs away from home and then an old uncle comes to get him back, the kid is waiting for a train all adamant and the man says ‘i jus came to tell you that your mother has made jalebis’.. and the kid says ”JALEBI?”.. and then he goes back.


The kid in the advertisement is Parzaan Dastur who also played the silent Sikh boy in Karan Johar’s Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.

I think this ad has an impact till today as in I have heard many people exclaim “Jalebi” the way the boy says it in this ad. I really love this commercial and felt that there would be many who would like to revisit their childhood so here goes see the ad and share it with all your friends.
