In their new ad, Bhima Jewellers showed the journey of a transwoman who transitions with the support of her parents. She tries on jewellery, grows her hair out and embraces her womanhood.
The best part of the advertisement? A transwoman, Meera Singhania is the protagonist, which just makes the representation better.
Twitter loves this beautiful ad as much as we do.
Why aren’t people talking about the new @bhimajewellers ad? It’s a watershed moment in the history of #jewellery ads. A brave move. Will it help sell the product, I don’t know. But it has dared to go where no one has before. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 https://t.co/lnyMQNlDZs

The ad features Meera Singhania, a trans person.
My salaams to Bhima Jewellery. If I was in Kerala or Tamil Nadu, my next purchase would be with them.
People, please wake up to this iconic ad of @bhimajewellers. A far cry from the nauseatingly fake ads we see from most other jewellery brands.
