Bajaj Bulbs
Jab main chota baccha tha, badi shararat karta tha..
meri chori pakdi jaati.. jab roshan hota Bajaj.
Kya rangeen jawani thi, ek raja aur ek rani thi..
Raja rani sharma jaate.. Jab roshan hota Bajaj.
Ab main bilkul buddha hoo, goli khakar jeeta hoon,
lekin aaj bhi ghar ke andar.. roshni deta Bajaj!
Khaitan fans
Chahiye hawa jahaan,
Khaitaan hai wahaan.

Aao chale hum, lekar apni Tobu Cycle!
Jai Sabun (soap)
Pehla pyaar.. laaye jeevan mein bahaar, pehla pyaar..

Tan-man mehke aise, pehla pyar ho jaise

Sab se accha ek drink hai, S-O-S-Y-O;

You totally forgot a few true gems:
BB Sabun
Yeh dher se kapde main kaise dhoon
Accha sabun kaunsa laun
Kapdo ko jo, ujla bana de
Phool chada hain, chamak laade
Koi bata de, mujhko koi bata de
Yeh kapdo ko ujla chamakdar banata hain, kapdo ki umra badhane wala, XXX ka Double B sabun.
Sasa detergent powder
Sasa detergent powder, lal lala
Sasa detergent powder
Sasa safedi lai, chaandi sa kapda chamkaye,
sasa bemisaal hai yeh sasa ka kamaal hai,
Sasa detergent powder, lal lala.
Sasa detergent powder..
Saridon
Sirf ek, saridon aur sardard se aaram
Na rahe peeda, na rahe dard
Bas ek, sirf ek
Sirf ek Saridon!
