Social media users have reacted strongly against an advertisement in policy market, promoting life insurance policy coverage for families. He has described this advertisement as very insensitive and disgusting. Some people criticized this advertisement and said that it has allegedly adopted a scary story and intimidation strategy. Let me tell you that this advertisement came out during the ICC Champions Trophy on February 23 during the India vs Pakistan match and a social media user on X (East) has expressed discomfort on the media message.
Is there only one person who considers it extremely insensitive? X user Siddharth (@SidKevichaar), who has more than 16,700 followers on X, questioned: "Am I alone who seems to be very insensitive this advertisement of Policy Bazar?" Further, Siddharth criticized that a man has died recently and his wife first blames him for not buying a term insurance? This is not financial awareness, this is just an insensitive story.
AM I the only one who finds this policybazaar ad insanely Insensitive?
A man just passed away, and the first thing his wife does is blame Him for not buying term insurance?
This isnt financial awareness, its just Insensitive Storylling.

Another user demanded the removal of the advertisement, saying, "It is not only insensitive, but also disgusting. @Policybazaar Be Big. Remove this advertisement and start a sensible advertisement. " At the same time, a user said that this is a intimidation strategy, he said, "Insurance is usually sold to potential customers, they are trying to do the same." And another agreed and said, "It is absolutely true and more accurately, this is a scary story!"
On this, a user took a pinch and said that a user replied by taking a pinch: Insurance company: Brother, just sell me insurance, let me sell? And the other was sarcastic: “The policy people tell you the advantages of husband's death (SIC). Some users attacked "feminists" to "reduce value" and to increase the burden of becoming a provider on men in society - even in death.
One user said, "@policybazaar Please note that this is an insensitive advertisement, as men have to face difficult times with the judiciary (divorce cases) and managers (ITES) that make our earnings and existence insignificant .
