CURRY BEAR

Why Advertise on CB?
Curry Bear is one of the funniest, popular and diverse South Asian website in America. We have a huge demographic of the young South Asian community. We post hilarious viral videos, write about issues concerning the desi community, and even have our own very popular advice column. We update the site every day so we have over a hundred thousands hits a month. Other than our huge popularity, we have a strong cult following and a very loyal fan base. Curry Bear has become so popular that we have even interviewed South Asian celebrities such as (Super Model) Minnie Gupta, (Hollywood Actress) Noureen DeWulf, Pari and Harvin (Comedians) and Aseem Batra (writer for NBC’s Scrubs). We have even been published in “Royal Magazine”. We offer banners on our site and even a post about your site/event/product. We keep growing every day.

CB Comics
Curry Bear Comics are the most popular South Asian based comic strip in America. The comics make this site stand out and make it different than any other Desi website in the world. Thousands of people come to our site to read our comics. Our comics are also sent around Facebook /Myspace, posted on random forums, and picked up on many popular sites and blogs. We also do advertisements in our comics, such as background banners, T-shirts on characters, or making a reference to your site/product. This is very beneficial because not only does your site/product/show get advertised on our site but many other sites and forums too. And we sell out for money real fast.

Why advertise your dance competition on our site?
Curry Bear has a strong following with people who love and are involved in dance competitions. Curry Bear often reviews competitions. Because of this, people who were at the competition and teams who competed come to read the review Curry Bear writes up. They also come to check out the hilarious comic bubbles that Curry Bear makes of every team. “Example Here” These people become loyal fans and are always e-mailing Curry Bear asking him for the next good competition event coming up.

Why have Curry Bear come review your show?
If you want people to come to your show or after party, nothing gets teams and fans more excited than knowing Curry Bear will be reviewing the show. Curry Bear always does a post about an upcoming event when he is invited to come review it. Curry Bear reviews are always hilarious and it helps make a big name for your competition. After posted on CB the review will be posted on many sites and forums by fans. Curry Bear has been involved with the Dance Competition scene for many years and he knows that a competition needs to make a name for itself in order to make any money and there is absolutely nothing that does that like a Curry Bear review. If your event gets a good review, the bigger your turn out will be for your next event.

Advertisements on Curry Bear are very affordable.
This is mostly because just like Candy, the stripper who gives me lap dances on Friday nights, we have low self esteem. We offer competitive rates, and have a variety of advertisements to offer. We don’t make a living on this site so we can negotiate at a more relaxed rate. We are also strong supporters of South Asian culture and would love to help you promote it. We also offer discounts if you agree to put our banner on your site in return. We also give discounts when it is for charity. Please e-mail Curry Bear for pricing at currybear@currybear.com or thecurrybear@gmail.com

Hey curry bear!
I would just like to personally thank you SO much for the review you put up on ddt. i emailed the naachvention board about 982093493249 times under various aliases BEGGING them to invite you to the show, but i guess they were preoccupied with other things and never responded to me. I was sooo upset that our last dance wouldnt get to be reviewed by you…
anyway, so i got a text message from our choreographer about ten minutes ago telling the team (baruch andaaz) to go to DDT to read a review that was posted and… wow
thank you SO much. you made so many of our team members, including myself, BAWL at the review. it was way more than i expected and really great for us to have that for our final performance. my only regret is that we did not get to perform the dance to a larger audience… or to you live… but anyway i just wanted to thank you SO MUCH again for that review because it was the icing on the cake to this whole experience

On Behalf of the brothers of Iota Nu Delta Fraternity Inc. we would like to thank every one who you who came out and made this event a huge success. Every ticket purchased contributed to the overall funds raised for SAKHI. Thank you all so very much and we look forward to hearing your review.

Currybear,
Hey thanks again for your review of our performance.. It was quite refreshing to hear someone break it down, rather than THAT WAS AWESOME, CONGRATS!!!! haha, even tho that is nice too.
But i was wondering .. you said in your review that there were alot of fill-in moves and no wow factor .. so i was just wondering if there was a specific part of the dance you were referring to? Or just at random parts of the dance? Because i feel like we were pretty hype for most the dance. I know we had no stunts but just looking for some more criticism for the next time we rock the stage!
Thanks alot man,
Amit Raj Malhotra

Yo CB your hilarious man. Thanks to you for coining me with the nickname Srk Jr. everyone and their moms call me that at competitions now. I wished you woulda called me Hrithik Jr. haha that’s my idol. I love reading your reviews they are mad funny, especially because you pick on me even when I am not competing lol. Come through to Naachvention and give us a good review, this is Andaaz’s last dance. I am Ashif btw from Andaaz.
P.s. I think Spitzer should be replaced with CB.

thanks for the feedback curry bear! sakhiyan loves you <3

After the positive review of UIUC Ghungroo(of which I am a member of), we all love you over here man. We’re trying to grow and your critique was much appreciated.
-Adil thethrill Ali

-Jafar

Hey thank you for the Review of Dance Fusion. It really helped us a lot and especially trying to figure out what we can improve on our show. It was definitely a hilarious review and especially the bubble pictures. Hopefully you can come and do another review for next year at our show! Don’t stop the comedy!
-Jonny Bosco Noronha from Dance Fusion

i love you curry bearrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so does sakhiyan! Muahzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

thanks for the shout out Curry Bear. The Sakhiyan girls truly enjoy your humor!
-Priti

But all jokes aside you have always showed a lot of love towards Andaaz from day one. Thank you for the respect you have given us by doing a review just for us and not to mention making it that detailed. I don’t think competitions realize that currybear is part of the whole competition formula for majority of the fusion teams. Friday night mixer, Saturday night competition, Sunday morning anticipation for currybear review. I would say most of the teams anticipate reading your review. I think every competition needs to have currybear because besides giving a humorous reviews he does a great job of analyzing the dance and giving good feedback. We have definitely taken his constructive criticism in that past and made our dance better. Currybear is like the spokesperson for the teams and the fans. We want to read his reviews and hear his opinion

If it doesn’t have a curry bear review it doesn’t count. Case Closed.
