A good place to start is understanding what Brooks Bond imagines itself to be. Having celebrity sponsors – Zakir Hussain, Saif Ali Khan, Madhuri Dixit – isn’t anything new or surprising for a large, cross-national brand.

written by John Milton is an epic that tells the story of Adam and Eve and how they put the human race’s futures at stake for sin and death.

The means, purpose, and consequences of temptation lead the protagonists to different conclusions. The stories follow a parallel, diverging only when one protagonists fails and the other succeeds.

Whether or not the daily acts we perform are considered morally acceptable (or not) can be categorized by the familiar binary couple of Good and Evil.
