Content creator goes viral for unique 'get ready with me' video on Delhi Metro
Delhi-based content creator Seikhohao Haokip, known as @ryanhaokip.xii, has become an internet sensation by filming his morning beauty routine on the Delhi Metro's Yellow Line. The viral video, showcasing his effortless application of blush, lip balm, and hair gel, has garnered millions of views and transformed him into a beloved on-the-go beauty guru.
What happens when you swap your bathroom mirror for a metro window and your vanity for a commuter's seat? You might just become the internet's newest beauty icon. That's exactly what happened to Delhi-based content creator Seikhohao Haokip, better known online as @ryanhaokip.xii - who turned heads (and algorithms) by filming his morning glow-up on a moving Yellow Line train of the Delhi Metro.
The now-viral video shows Ryan casually applying blush, lip balm, and hair gel in a "Get Ready With Me" (GRWM) moment that looks more like a Vogue Beauty Secrets episode than a routine subway ride. With over 2.6 million views, 83,000+ likes, and 1,400+ comments, the clip has launched Ryan from regular office-goer to internet's favourite on-the-go beauty guru.
In the video, Ryan starts with a dewy blush dabbed across his cheeks and nose, followed by a slick of tinted lip balm and a quick style-up with lightweight hair gel.
After a swift 'fit check, the scene cuts to him riding an auto rickshaw on his way to work. It's minimal, effective, and quietly confident, exactly the kind of content Gen Z and millennials are loving.
And love it they did. The comments section is a goldmine of fan reactions, from 'Bro's skin is literally glowing' to 'Corporate skincare king!' Beauty influencers like Sahira Taneja and Diipa Büller-Khosla chimed in with heart emojis and fire reactions.
But it's the background character, a man watching with fascination that became an unexpected star. Comments like 'The dude in pink wants in on the glow' and 'He's falling for you, bro' flooded the feed.
In a world where skincare is now mainstream and self-care isn't gendered, Ryan's impromptu GRWM stands as a sweet, slightly cheeky reminder: glow wherever you are, even if it's on public transport. We loved Ryan's video, tell us how did you like it in the comment section below.

Woman upcycles a 20 kg patchwork bedsheet from Janpath into a lehenga masterpiece. Watch
Choosing an off-the-rack lehenga is great, but nothing quite matches the thrill of custom-making your own. Whether it's upcycling an old piece or sourcing the fabric and shaping every detail from scratch, it's every girl's dream to wear a bespoke lehenga tailored just for her (especially the ones which are self-designed). Delhi-based content creator Simran Anand set an example as she turned a 20-kilo hand-embroidered bedsheet into a stunning statement lehenga. She took to her Instagram on July 1 to share the process that went into it. A post shared by Simran Anand (@simrananand21) Simran shared that while strolling in Janpath, she came across a bedsheet-like material that weighed almost up to 20 kg. But it was the gorgeous patchwork, handiwork and mirror detailing of the bedsheet that caught her attention. Generally, these are festival home decor pieces that are strung on the walls in northwestern places like Jaipur and Gujarat. Bed sheets with heavy work like mirrorwork or patchwork are often hung on walls as a tapestry. But to the content creator, said, 'Mujhe usme fashion dikha' (I saw fashion in it.) It is a reminder of how fashion is all about vision, and can be found in unexpected places, too. Later on, with Pinterest inspirations in hand, she headed straight to her local tailor. The result was a chic lehenga with stunning detailing. ALSO READ: Forget your mom's saree! This woman revamped her dad's wedding suit and internet loves how she slayed it The comment section passed the vibe check with the unique idea. One hailed her creativity and wrote, 'Love a smart woman with an amazing fashion sense, love this on youuu.' Another also praised her local tailor and wrote, 'Lucky bhaiya is so skilled ❤️.' One more suggested the idea of an embroidered blazer: 'A blazer out of this would have been so good too, another one!!' Transforming a decor piece, especially a whopping 20 kg of material, into a traditional lehenga demonstrates the power of sartorial vision. It is about the ability the see beyond the obvious, recognising the potential of style in unlikely fabrics and materials. Fashion isn't always explicit, it's found in the subtle undertones and unexpected places, waiting for someone with the eye to bring it to life. Fashion doesn't begin with traditional fabrics or silhouettes; it starts with imagination and creativity. ALSO READ: Faux, upcycled, or vintage? The fur debate is heating up in the fashion world

Aamir Khan says he is a 'red flag', recalls the time when he made ex-wife Kiran Rao cry
Known across the industry as Bollywood's 'Mr. Perfectionist,' Aamir Khan has long captivated audiences with his dedication to his craft. Yet beyond the silver screen, the acclaimed actor has begun to reveal a more vulnerable side, one shaped by emotional lessons and deeply personal realizations. In a recent conversation with podcaster Raj Shamani, Khan opened up about the emotional turmoil that once defined his relationships, especially with filmmaker Kiran Rao , his former wife. Reflecting on their marriage, Aamir acknowledged how his relentless focus on work had often overshadowed the emotional needs of those around him. He described being a workaholic as one of the most damaging aspects of his personality. His intense professional drive often led him to disconnect from emotions, especially when hurt. During emotionally challenging times, he admitted to shutting himself off completely—avoiding conversations and retreating inward. This pattern became particularly evident during a disagreement with Kiran. Although the argument's details faded from memory, its emotional impact endured. Despite sharing a bed and a home, he distanced himself emotionally, offering only minimal responses. This emotional withdrawal eventually left Kiran in tears, desperately trying to bridge the silence, unsure how to reach him. Khan recognized that this behavior stemmed from emotional immaturity and an inability to process pain in healthy ways. At the root of his silence, he confessed, was ego—a defense mechanism that made it nearly impossible for him to take the first step toward reconciliation. Though he wanted to heal the rift, his internal struggle kept him frozen. It was only later, through therapy and introspection , that he came to terms with these behavioral patterns, which he now identifies as red flags in his emotional life. His introspection extended beyond his relationship with Kiran Rao. He also revisited the early days of his first marriage to Reena Dutta. Aamir revealed that he married Reena impulsively after knowing her for just four months. At 21, with Reena only 19, the decision was driven more by youthful emotion than rational thought. Looking back, he admitted that they should have taken more time before committing, as youthful passion often blinds one to future consequences. Currently, Aamir is involved with Gauri Spratt, a Mumbai-based salon owner and a longtime acquaintance. Although they have known each other for over 25 years, their bond developed more recently into a close relationship. Professionally, Aamir is set to return to cinema with Sitaare Zameen Par , a spiritual successor to his 2007 classic Taare Zameen Par. The film, a remake of the Spanish movie Champions, draws inspiration from a real-life basketball team of athletes with intellectual disabilities.

‘Sister Midnight' movie review: Radhika Apte elevates this punk black comedy
At first glance, Sister Midnight, Karan Kandhari's morbidly funny debut feature, looks like a static portrait of marital inertia. There's a new bride pouting in a Mumbai chawl, slumped under the weight of expectations and boredom. The frequently immobile camera watches as Radhika Apte's Uma shuffles around her one-room box of a home, staring into the infinity of its walls. For a while, that's about it. Just a slow-motion descent into the slow cooker of domestic life that's almost aggressively mundane. But the trick of Sister Midnight is that this banality is the bait, and soon enough the hook reveals itself. Beneath the macabre sitcom setup and the Wes Anderson-like symmetry, there's something far stranger going on. Uma chances upon a goat, dead birds begin to accumulate, but at least her fever has subsided. Having begun the film as a grumpy wife, Uma starts to mutate into something else entirely. Kandhari, who is Indian by origin but London-based, channels a particularly diasporic vision of Mumbai that's intimate, but also quite surreal. The film's chawl setting is crammed with gossiping aunties and open windows and often feels claustrophobic, but also buzzes with a foreboding menace. Cinematographer Sverre Sordal lights these back alleys like dream sequences. Drab fluorescent interiors clash with sinister noirish shadows, and everything looks just slightly off. Much of the movie rests on Apte's shoulders, and she carries it like a woman hauling centuries of baggage. Uma sulks, spits, stomps, slouches, and seethes. Her barbs feel militant, and even her silences throb with insult. There's barely any exposition, but Apte and Kandhari give us all we need from a single glance on her hostage-sequence-like wedding night, to her soft-spoken husband's polite refusals for any semblance of intimacy. Sister Midnight (Hindi) Director: Karan Kandhari Cast: Radhika Apte, Ashok Pathak, Chhaya Kadam, Smita Tambe, Subhash Chandra Runtime: 110 minutes Storyline: In Mumbai, an arranged marriage spirals into darkness as the spineless husband watches his wife morph into a ruthless, feral force The genre gradually slides out from under the bed. The first half is kitchen sink absurdism, while the second has a fable-like feel to it. Kandhari doesn't make the transition seamless, but he makes it feel earned. The bratty interloper in Uma soon grows into something more mythic. Her transformation into a symbolic stand-in for Kali is teased through colour, gesture, and ritual. Her face even glows blue at just the right moment, and one character even remarks she's 'looking a bit more kali today,' with just the right weight that pun deserves. The film is peppered with delightful digressions like a Kurosawa parody playing on a teahouse television, a band of helpful trans women offering some chai and a shoulder, and a sombre lift operator who seems to be Uma's only emotional peer. Kandhari never quite ties these threads into a cohesive tapestry, but that's part of the point. His world is stitched together from the freakish leftovers of society. Kandhari's flirtations with vampire mythology are quite provocative and fun to witness. With its jarring edits, brash needle-drops, and near-expressionist lighting, the film channels a feral, Jaramuschian brand of punk, using the undead as metaphors for the unkillable rage of a woman who's had enough. However, Sister Midnight does sometimes lose control of its tone. The slapstick rhythms of its jump cuts, whip pans and sound gags begin to feel mechanised by the one-hour mark, and its tight visual language also becomes something of a constraint, as though the story is trying to scream through a very tiny symmetrical window. Sister Midnight is not a tidy film, and often lacks consistency. But it's thrillingly alive, especially in how it weaponises discomfort and turns the Yellow Wallpaper-trope of the neglected housewife into something folkloric. Kandhari's instincts occasionally betray him when he throws in a few too many motifs without always knowing where they land, but he's unmistakably a filmmaker with a vision, and a wicked sense of humour. Sister Midnight is currently running in theatres
