The brand had released two posters with Ranveer Singh one with him wearing the jeans and the other holding a girl. It said 'A pair of jeans you can't do without'. Even Ranveer tweeted saying that Durex is launching 'Jeans' and that it designed to fit the passionate.

The buzz created by this ad was similar to that of the Pan Bahar Masala ad featuring Pierce Brosnan recently.

However, it was Durex that had the last laugh as the teaser managed to get everyone talking about the latest product that they were about to launch.

The brand just revealed that they were coming up with a new condom product which fits easily into a jeans pocket.

The ad campaign and teaser however got everyone talking about the brand and the new product that it was launching.

But people are not wrong to guess that a condom brand could get into some other random product line. Take for instance condom brand KamaSutra which in 2012 launched an energy drink called KS E Drink and even deodrants.

Gautam Singhania, chairman and managing director, Raymond at the launch conference has said that the Energy Drink strengthens this bold and young positioning of the brand and thus becomes a natural extension for the KS brand.

The KamaSutra Energy Drink was positioned as a product to give an energy booster to men to extend their sex drive.

So Durex manufacturing jeans pants are not too far fetched for condom brands.
