Samsung has managed a sort of a coup for its latest TVC. It has, for the first time in India, managed to get Aamir Khan to sing for a TV commercial. Across four edits Khan has sung a medley of 12 songs capturing a myriad of moods. In the end he signs off with a cheeky 'Bolti bandh. Gaana Shuru." The campaign has been directed by Ravi Udyawar of RU Films.
