It’s only a matter of moments when you hear “O ho ho School Time…” that every last one of us joins in with “… Action ka School Time!” and it’s all thanks to a very special child actor from back in the day. Remember Tejan Diwanji, the adorable Action kid that starred in the School Time shoes ad?
I mean, “Classwork, homework. Punishment lecture. Good… Goodmorning, teacher!” pretty much are historic words. And so are, “Bade gazab ki bhookh lagi, Maggi chahiye mujhe abhi!”
Not just then giants Action and Maggi, he was also the face of Band Aid among many other timeless ads we saw on Doordarshan.
