Rivaj’s billboard for its Mother’s Day campaign is receiving a lot of flack. Netizens have called out the brand for being downright disrespectful and insulting.

Rivaj’s Unethical Billboard 

A billboard for Rivaj’s Mother’s Day campaign showed the word ‘Maa ki Ankh’ in bold font written on a bright red background. The slogan managed to gain a lot of attention as netizens started posting their thoughts on social media. Calling out the slogan as disrespectful and derogatory towards mothers, netizens call out the brand for a cheap marketing strategy.


Take a look at the billboard below.

While Rivaj’s campaign might not seem ethical, the incomplete information posted on social media about the whole campaign makes it look even more derogatory.

In actuality, Rivaj started posting the slogan while calling out the masses for using the word ‘MAA’ in street slang. Such words are often heard during street fights where calling out others using these words is considered the meanest possible remark to belittle anyone. Rivaj’s attempt to shed light on the issue is something that can be appreciated.
