ad! KV Sridhar's romance with advertising and life is the genesis of this book, 30 Second Thrillers. A book that captures the magic that has unfolded on our TV screens in the last 30 years as 30 seconders. The book is an ode to our common viewers, our aunts and uncles, our neighbours, that stranger who we have had a random conversation with in our train journey.
A book that takes the reader to a world where magic is made! To the world where creative oompa-loompas of advertising work tirelessly to create 30 seconds that become a part of peoples' lives. A book that tells the stories behind the 30 second story, how was it made, when did the idea spark like a bulb, who thought of it and when, the anecdotes, the efforts all of it captured in words! Further ornamented by the inputs and insights of the makers themselves. A book that covers every great ad-maker and their story, be it the 'Chal meri Luna', be it the vintage 'Humara Bajaj' to the new 'Har ek friend zaroori hota hai' the book revisits all. Starting from the Doordarshan days and arriving at the YouTube today, the journey is worded succulently in this book. It is these people, the viewers who are oblivious of the world behind ads that are the core inspiration of this book, and it is to them, to us, to you this book speaks to.
