Instagram influencer Zervaan J Bunshah managed to replace the iconic Parle-G girl on the biscuit packet’s cover in a social media post shared by the brand.
It all started when Zervaan put up a quirky video on his handle. Shooting a question to all his followers, he asked how one should address the owner of Parle-G. All this while, Zervaan shared his confusion with a comical expression. The catchy ‘Ey ji Oo ji’ song from Anil Kapoor’s 1989 film, Ram Lakhan, played in the background.
“If you meet the owner of Parle-G, do you call him Parle sir, Mr Parle or Parle G?” read the text that appeared on the video. The influencer wrote in the caption “Parle ji” with hashtags ‘parleji’ and ‘og.’ Zervaan, who is popular for his witty commentaries and Parsi caricatures, has over 1 lakh followers on the photo-sharing platform.
Parle G was quick to respond to Zervaan’s post and played along with the banter. “Bunshah ji, you can call us the OG,” the brand’s official handle noted in the comment section.
This wasn’t all. Parle G took a step further and on a lighter note, replaced their iconic girl’s image with that of the influencer’s. In the caption, it mentioned, “While you figure out what to call the owner of Parle-G, you can call us your favourite biscuit to enjoy with a cup of chai. What say @bunshah ji?”
