Cary Grant in Brylcreem

Cricket star Mahendra Singh Dhoni shills Brylcreem, the graying baby boomer’s last attempt at style, on Indian TV. Like Marriott, Domino’s and Pizza Hut, the brand has moved upmarket in India with a line of colored hair gel aimed at teens.

I’ve got just two questions. First, whose bright idea was it to place the ad next to the urinal? I don’t need to be staring at Dhoni’s face while taking a whizz.

And second, does anyone really go to the bathroom, apply gel of questionable provenance and come out with a green pompadour?
