A screengrab from the video posted by the Mumbai Police on Twitter
'You and I⦠in this beautiful worldâ¦', the advertisement of a popular telecom brand where a pug follows a kid is still etched in the minds of Indian viewers. From the time the advertisement released a few years ago, we have all hummed the catchy tune of this jingle at some point of time. Now, taking a cue from the ad, Mumbai Police has posted a public service meme urging people to stay at home amid the Coronavirus outbreak, that has made people humming the tune again.
Using the visuals of a pug sitting inside a red dog house in a video with the tune heard in the background, the police department tweaked the lyrics of the song to, "You and I - Will meet again in this beautiful world." Then they wrote, "Until then, stay home and stay safe," as the tagline of the post.
