The strategy of placing hidden or subliminal messages in advertisements is a common practice by marketers to captivate their target market and generate sales.

With a double meaning, the ads aim to showcase an upfront message. However, people will often discover a secret innuendo, mostly sexual in nature, when they look at it for a longer time.


Recently, a rising Pakistani brand ‘Dawaai’ has rolled out a social media ad with a ‘double entendre’.

For those who are unaware, Dawaai is an online pharmacy that provides authentic medicines to patients door-steps as quickly as possible.

What’s more, the ad cleverly makes use of subliminal imagery. The brand has smartly used ‘sperm symbols’ to show the emission of smoke from the motorcycle.

The advert has created quite a buzz on social media platforms.
