"VI-John Ki Shaving Cream Wala Brush": Comedian Rants About Matcha Trend In Viral Video

NDTV08-07-2025
Matcha, a finely ground green tea powder, has taken the food and beverage industry by storm. Originating in Japan, it has now dominated social media food trends and cafe menus, not just in drinks, but also in desserts and other dishes. Reacting to the frenzy, stand-up comedian Rahul Dua shared a reel on Instagram, packed with his trademark sarcasm. In the caption, he wrote, "Matcha Matcha everywhere and I don't want to drink. Give me khus khus ka sharbat! Matchademic fael rakha hai."
Dua begins his viral reel by calling matcha straightaway "itni badswad cheez hai." Recalling his experience of trying authentic matcha in Japan, he said, "Mera real, authentic mood kharab hua hai."
Taking a dig at the matcha-making process, he joked about the traditional bamboo whisk, calling it the "V-John ki shaving cream wala brush." He adds, "Matcha is stated to have a lot of antioxidants and a lot of anticancer properties, and I am genuinely not surprised, kyuki iska taste hi dawai (medicine) jaisa hai."
" But full detox kardeti hai matcha - health, khushi (happiness), mood, paise (money), sab detox," he adds. Predicting matcha's future in Delhi, Dua adds, " Matcha pahoch chuki hai Delhi...aap bas mahina aur do - matcha momo, matcha soya chaap, murgh matcha tikka - aap dekho."

The reel has struck a chord with social media users, leaving many amused and nodding in agreement. A scroll through the comments shows why it has gone viral.
One user wrote, "I spent 10 years developing the taste of black coffee so that I could look rich... now the rich people have started drinking matcha... my 10 years are wasted."
Another said, "So true! A friend forced me to try matcha because he thinks my health is declining due to tea. Alhamdulillah, I tried, and he is no longer my friend to this day." A viewer added, "Chai is true love... 10 rupay mein mood badhiya ho jana hain!"
"Have not developed a taste for green tea yet, and now they have introduced matcha," read another comment. Imagining what is next, one user wrote, "Matcha shikanji, matcha ki chhabeel, bhi aayengi abhi to."

"Air Frying": Dubai Student Shows How To Fry An Egg Under Scorching Summer Sun

A Dubai student shared a humorous Instagram video showing him frying an egg on a pan heated by the city's intense summer sun, highlighting temperatures above 45°C. The clip has garnered over 10 million views and widespread online amusement. Globetrotters often dream about travelling to Dubai at least once in their lives. The UAE city is known for its dazzling skyscrapers, luxury resorts, glowing dunes and a delicious culinary spread (think hummus, shawarma, falafels and knafehs). But there's a drawback: come summer and your Dubai dream gets drenched in…well… sweat. With temperatures shooting past 45 degrees Celcisus, the sun can sometimes feel like it's not shining but attacking you. Stepping outside in the hot season can seem like a daredevil move. Now, a Dubai-based student has shared a humorous video on Instagram, capturing the unbearable heat in the city. The video opens to the man holding out a pan in the blazing sun. Reason? To cook fried eggs with natural heat. First, he drizzled some oil into the pan, followed by cracking open an egg and pouring it into the vessel. Surprisingly, the egg starts simmering in the heat (of course, in pretence) before flipping the egg to the other side and garnishing it with some salt. Once done, the person transfers the golden fried egg into a plate to 'enjoy' it. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Max Max (@dubaistudent_life) The text in the clip read, 'How we cook our eggs in Dubai'. The caption said, 'How to cook in summer - Dubai.' The internet had a gala fun time watching the fun video and reacted to the same. 'Does it really get that hot?' wondered a user. 'I was outside yesterday and my eggs cooked too,' chimed in another playfully. This individual wanted to know, 'So that metal that your hand was resting on… was not hot to touch?' 'How you like your eggs – fried or fertilized?' read a hilarious comment. 'Hahaha can you even breathe in that heat? How are you even standing out there to hold the pan?' asked someone else, both in jest and concern. 'Is that considered air frying?' questioned one person sarcastically. 'Be careful. You're in Dubai, if that pan falls and hits someone in the head, you're going to jail for the rest of your life for killing someone with a pan for views and likes,' noted another user.
