Grace or golgappa? Woman shows how to eat pani puri without messing up makeup, leaves netizens irked
Golgappa or pani puri is a popular Indian street food made of a crispy-fried puri filled with a flavorful mixture of potatoes, chickpeas and spices. The popular bite-sized snack is loved for its tangy taste and the fun of eating it with your hands. Now, a new 'hack' is being suggested on social media to eat it in a 'graceful' way without ruining your lipstick or makeup. And not all are impressed. The recent Instagram video, shared by personality developer and counsellor Pria Warrick, @priawarrickfinishingacademy, showed a woman eating pani puri in a very graceful and neat way without smudging her lipstick or makeup. The caption said, 'Yes, it's possible to enjoy pani puri without messing up your makeup or your grace.' It also said that you can eat your favourite street food in a classy way, just like in fine dining. But the idea didn't go well with many, and golgappa fans across the internet were irked. They said this is not how golgappa is meant to be eaten. For them, it's all about the fun, the mess, and the real taste when you eat it the traditional way. The post also sparked wider conversation on preserving traditional food culture in a world driven by digital trends. One Instagram user @sushmita10795 commented, 'With all due respect ma'am, I would rather apply another coat of lipstick than compromise with the golgappa.' Another user, @ said she reported the video, calling it 'bullying and harassment'. Another critical comment came from @vandanaaofficial, who wrote, 'Golgappa is Indian street food. You don't need a spoon or fork to eat it. You fill it with spiced water and pop the whole thing into your mouth — that's the real joy. Not everything needs to look Western or polished. Let's enjoy our street food like it's meant to be — real, raw, and desi!' Many people feel that the video is trying to change something that doesn't need to be changed. While some may like the idea of looking graceful, others believe the messy fun of golgappa is what makes it special.

Vivek Agnihotri breaks silence on multiple FIRs filed against The Bengal Files: 'They are challenging our guts, courage'
Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri is facing mounting legal heat ahead of the release of his upcoming film 'The Bengal Files'. In a video statement, Agnihotri revealed that multiple FIRs have been filed against him and the film by members of the ruling party in West Bengal. Despite the pressure, he remains defiant and plans to launch the trailer in the state itself. 'The ruling party of West Bengal and their members have been filing so many FIRs against us in different cities. That is their strategy. I was quiet and did not share this information with anyone because we were taking the legal course. I have great faith in Indian judiciaries, especially Calcutta High Court,' he said. 'The Calcutta High Court has given us a stay on all these FIRs, but as the case was being heard in the High Court, at the same time, they filed more FIRs. The ruling party wants to trap us with so many legal hassles and battles so that we cannot focus on the promotion of the film. This strategy has been deployed by them for a very long time.' Agnihotri also detailed the challenges of making the film. 'I must tell you it's one of the most defining and important films. It uncovers many dark chapters of our history.' He added, 'I have finished the film. It has taken a lot from us. We have put in whatever we had to make this very difficult film. We were not allowed to shoot in Bengal. We had to shoot the entire film in Bombay. Now, with our limited resource, we want this film to reach every citizen of India.' He concluded the video by saying, 'This is people's film. It is your film. I want you to support us. I want you to expose all those agencies and powers who do not want this film to come out. They are challenging our guts and courage. They want to see how we are going to fight. We are alone while they have the state power. But I have taken this challenge and I am going to release the trailer of the film in West Bengal. Nobody can silence me because nobody can silence the truth.' The Bengal Files, originally titled 'The Delhi Files: The Bengal Chapter', is an upcoming Hindi-language film directed by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri. It serves as the third and final instalment in Agnihotri's 'Files Trilogy' on modern Indian history, following 'The Tashkent Files' (2019) and 'The Kashmir Files' (2022). The film focuses on the 1946 Great Calcutta Killings. The project is set to be released in two parts. The first instalment, titled 'The Bengal Files: Right to Life', is slated to hit theatres on September 5, 2025, coinciding with Teachers' Day in India. Set against the backdrop of the 1940s, the film delves into the violence that engulfed undivided Bengal, spotlighting pivotal events such as Direct Action Day in 1946 and the Noakhali riots.
