1) Advertising products like cigarette or alcohol are banned in many parts of the world. So companies come up with products that might have the same brand name, and remind people of cigarette or alcohol bottles of the same brand. Examples include Bacardi, McDowells, Smirnoff, Royal Challengers Bangalore, etc. What is this type of advertising called?

2) Name the editor-in-chief of India Today.

3) In 1934, Japan had its first ever 35mm camera with a focal plane shutter. Goro Yoshida named it X, after Buddhist Bodhisattva Guan Yin. It was renamed Y a few years later, and remains known as Y to the world today. What is X and Y?

4) ID the logo.

5) ID the logo.
