The IRAS officer, Ananth Rupanagudi, has urged Puma to include a disclaimer in the ad featuring Milind Soman jogging on railway tracks. Rupanagudi, an Indian Railway Accounts Service (IRAS) officer, has disagreed with the Puma ad, pointing out that the advertisement, which shows Soman jogging on a railway track, is ‘treated as trespassing. ‘
He has tagged the brand and implored them to add a disclaimer to the advertisement. ‘I have an issue with this ad, Puma. Railway tracks aren’t intended for jogging, and it’s considered trespassing. Milind Soman – you should have verified this before filming this ad,’ wrote Rupanagudi on X. He further stated, ‘Puma, please include a disclaimer in this ad.‘
