Flipkart draws criticism over obituary-themed promotional ad
Flipkart has drawn severe criticism for a print advertisement designed to look like an obituary. The promotion featured pictures of living individuals with the text "We aren't sad at all", which was followed by the phrase "While they continue to live, our deals will soon leave". Tagging the online shopping portal on X, writer Shobhaa De remarked, "The most self-serving, disgusting and insensitive ad...Shame on you."
