It seems that the creative ad can not be grasped by everyone.
I don’t understand what the Indore Law Institute is trying to prove here. both characters were good lawyers: they made mistakes in their careers, but in the end they rectified them and again proved their responsibility. So what is this comparison? cool matlab banne ke liye kuch bhi????

Many jumped at the chance to tie Saul Goodman or Jimmy McGill from the TV series Better Call Saul. The character, who is a lawyer in the series, has been played by actor Bob Odenkirk.
