Talking parrot gives safe sex advice
New TV adverts for condoms in India feature a talking parrot and a puppy named Condom in an attempt to increase sales as a counter to the growing problem of Aids.
The ads are intended to change the way people see condoms in the country, which remains deeply conservative when it comes to sexual issues.
Nearly 2.5 million people in India are infected with HIV, the Aids virus, but talking about the disease and sexual health issues in general is still largely taboo.
