GlaxoSmithKline won awards in South Africa in 2005 with a print advertising campaign for acne cream treatment Oxy, featuring beauty and fashion jewelery. Bhindi, the award-winning advertisement, features a woman wearing a red bhindi (or bindi) which in Hindu custom indicates that she’s married. Only problem is that the spot is slightly off centre.
