If Ramya Krishnan can be the brand ambassador for a “wet grinder”, why can’t a “face” promote products made by the sweat and toil of faceless artisans, commodification of women be damned?

Another example of commodification of women
Another example of commodification of examinations
Like, bombers get scared looking at bombshells?
Now, what will those fools do with these kids?
Surely all that glitters is more than just gold
The best ice-candy melts before nice eye-candy
What it takes to smoothen some rough blades of grass
Denims, diamonds, Miss India and the Mahatma
See, a brand ambassador always gets good press
