Bengaluru billboard’s 3D ad goes viral, internet reacts. Watch

A 3D billboard advertisement has gone viral. The ad featuring a man pouring filter coffee has become a talking point for both internet users and the city's residents, drawing mixed reactions. The eye-catching ad, promoting the restaurant chain Bangalore Thindies, utilizes three-dimensional effects to create the illusion of the man extending out of the billboard, offering a cup of coffee to passersby.While some commuters are impressed by the innovative and creative approach, others have raised concerns about its potential to distract drivers and compromise road safety.


Sharing the video on social media platform Instagram, the company wrote: "3 new locations in one day. There can never be enough of places to have some good Podi Masala and filter coffee.”
A user on social media platform X (earlier Twitter) also shared the 3D ad. The user labelled the unique advertisement as a "Peak Bengaluru Moment," a phrase commonly used to highlight the unusual events of the city.
In the X post, the user wrote: “Peak Bengaluru Moment, Hot Coffee to Sip from Skies☕☕☕
Next Level Of Advertisement In BANGALORE !”



The X post has already received over 1.35 lakh views and thousands of likes. However, not all users were happy with the ad as some users said that it can distract drivers and may cause road incidents.
"Eyes on the hoarding, road, pothole, pedestrians, vehicles…..not a good idea," one user pointed out.

"This is a distraction to drivers. Can lead to accidents,” another user commented.

Meanwhile, a third user highlighted, “Yes, it's a distraction and should be banned. Need guidelines for road advertisements.”

Concerns were also raised about the billboard's substantial size, with some users cautioning that it could pose a risk during heavy rain or storms.
