I think the true meaning of the poster is that she's worried Chennai *WILL* be like NJ. The horror! Go west young man.

The city of Chennai and New Jersey do have a lot in common...lots of industry, similar population size, and international airports.
I'm just not sure that it's a selling point per se.
It's very similar to seeing posters for Sydney and musing if it will be like Alabama. Why, yes, my child. It is hot and dusty, and race relations are still tense. Oh and there is the wonderful bonus of accents...

Actually, next time I see you all, I'll be happy to bore you with the rationale for this ad. This rationale is really quite interesting to a New Jerseyan traveling through the major cities of India, and probably not really to anyone else.
