FMCG major Hindustan Unilever is re-launching the ‘Liril Girl’.
They have come out with a new commercial featuring a Brazilian model Anabellethe singing the trademark ‘La, lalala, la, la, la’ while bathing playfully under a waterfall with a Liril soap.
The marble green soap brand made waves 40 years ago when model and Air India in-flight service crew member Karen Lunel wore a swimsuit and danced under a cascade to the catchy jingle.
Here’s a compilation of all Liril ads starting from 1985 till date…
After 1985, the brand was defined by models Pooja Batra, Preity Zinta and Deepika Padukone — each seen playing in the water and swimming under the waterfall. But they were merely shadows of the original ad.
Also, it wasn’t the same after the 90s, when the lemon product was diluted with variants such as orange and icy blue, followed by a name change to Liril 2000 a decade ago.
Are you already going lalalalala……..Kudos to the Liril girl!
