‘A true ‘thirst trap' post,' say netizens as podcaster Raj Shamani claims to be a water connoisseur
Painting, singing, cooking, and dancing – we have come across a wide variety of hobbies. But have you heard of reviewing and rating water as one? Podcaster Raj Shamani, who identifies as a water connoisseur, claims to do just that. In conversation with Chalchitra Talks, Shamani opened up about his fascination for plain and simple water. 'Mujhe paani peena pasand hai, main na daaru peeta hoon, na main zyada soft drinks peeta hoon, toh mere paas peene ke liye option kya hai? Toh ab main har country mein jaata hoon aur dekhta hoon kaun kaunse paani available hain (I love drinking water. Neither do I drink alcohol, nor do I have a lot of soft drinks. So I do not have a lot of options left. I visit every country and try out their different options of water available),' he shared. Shamani also shared 3 unique stories of tasting water abroad: 'There's a kind of water available in Denmark, called Iskilde water — a kind of artesian water from glaciers that remains untouched and unprocessed. 'Usse meetha paani maine life mein nahi peeya (I have never tasted sweeter water in life),' said the podcaster. According to AquaDeli, a water sommelier blog, it comes from a spring discovered in 2001 in the Danish lake highlands, sourced from an aquifer 60 meters deep. The water is naturally filtered through layers of soil, sand, and clay, absorbing a variety of minerals. 'Iskilde' means 'cold spring' in Danish, and the water is bottled at a very low temperature, resulting in a high oxygen content and a silky, slightly sweet taste. Next, he spoke about UK's Hildon, that is served in the Buckingham Palace and the Royals drink it. 'There's nothing different in it, but I think it's just the hype and story, and process surrounding it that makes all the elite and royalty gravitate towards it. Third, Shamani talked about American brand Bling H2O, which costs Rs 5,000 per bottle. 'It's just regular water, there's nothing else to it. Just the bottle's packaging uses crystals to emboss the word 'Bling'. People do not care what they are drinking, they care what they a re holding,' he said. 'There's liquid death, and Bodyarmour if you want water loaded with electrolytes. If you want to drink Norwegian water, try Voss, that Harvey Specter is seen drinking in the show Suits. It's Rs 600 a bottle,' Shamani added. His niche obsession fascinated the internet, with netizens taking to comments to show their appreciation and enthusiasm for Shamani's interest. From ''He is from Rajasthan…they know water is the most valuable,' 'This is actually really cool. Never thought someone could analyze water and actually make it interesting! I am thirsty just listening to this. A true 'thirst trap' post,' to 'Yes yes I am the target audience,' people lauded the podcaster for opening up and spreading awareness about such a unique concept.
