‘Best gossip buddy': Sanjana Ganesan's banter about life with Jasprit Bumrah wins hearts on the Internet
Banter between couples – celebrity or not – can make for some of the most charming, relatable content. In a recent podcast appearance, sports journalist and cricket anchor Sanjana Ganesan offered a candid look into her life with cricketer husband Jasprit Bumrah, and the Internet is loving it. Speaking on the podcast Moments of Silence hosted by Instagram influencers Sakshi Shivdasani and Naina Bhan, Ganesan shared how Bumrah is her 'best gossip buddy'. The two, she said, love lounging at home watching Netflix, indulging in chocolates, and catching up on work gossip. The now-viral clip also revealed a fun behind-the-scenes moment from their professional lives. Ganesan, who has interviewed Bumrah during matches, recalled how he often tries to throw her off by winking or smiling during serious segments. 'I try to stay focused and in journalist mode, but he knows exactly how to break that,' she said, laughing. The clip was posted on the podcast's Instagram page, @momentofsilencepod, with the caption, ''Interviewed a true inspiration this week — she's got it all (except your fav cricketer's phone number)! Stream now on Spotify!' The video has amassed 685K views and 42.5K likes on the platform. A post shared by Moment of Silence (@momentofsilencepod) Reacting to the video, a user commented, 'You carry strength with such grace, Sanjana di. Your poise, confidence, and calm presence are truly inspiring. Women like you redefine elegance.' Another user wrote, 'By far THE BEST EPISODE! Love how you highlighted her success and career without making it just about the husband. I knew I was a problem when I got excited thinking all the questions are going to be around cricket and 'the husband'.' One Instagram user said, 'Sanjana you are looking so beautiful.' However, not all feedback was positive. One user criticised the interviewers, saying, 'This was the best guest you had. I love you guys, but this was not your finest moment. Good questions were not put and you were not well prepared.' In the episode, Ganesan also touched upon her Miss India journey, college life, and thoughts on motherhood.

Instagram Head Adam Mosseri Tastes Kaju Katli, Laddoos And More
Adam Mosseri, the head of popular social media platform Instagram, travelled to India recently. His visit made headlines for various reasons, as he interacted with celebrities, content creators, chefs and various media personalities. Recently, a foodie snippet from his India trip went viral on social media. In the clip, Adam Mosseri can be seen trying a few sweet and spicy Indian treats. The tasting took place during his appearance on the podcast 'Moment of Silence' hosted by Naina Bhan and Sakshi Shivdasani. As he played a fun game with the duo, they introduced him to some of the famous snacks and sweets they had laid out in front of him. When the rules of the game obliged him to eat a spicy snack, he asked them which one was the spiciest. They presented him with a bowl of Lay's Magic Masala chips, which they called "iconic." He tasted the potato chip and declared that it was "tasty." His tentative tone made the hosts jokingly ask him, "Did you doubt it?" He replied, "No, I thought it was going to be crazy spicy." After that, he unabashedly ate some more chips.

"It's very tasty," he said as he inspected the delicacy and savoured its flavour. The hosts explained that it is especially eaten during festivals, and that it is often topped with silver leaf (varq). Adam Mosseri noted that it reminded him of Middle Eastern halwa. He restated his appreciation for kaju katli: "It's delicious." Next, he was given a bowl of mini gulab jamuns. The hosts struggled to explain what they are (without using Indian words) and settled on describing them as "deep-fried flour balls in sugar syrup." Adam tasted one and said, "It's almost like a doughnut. But like, completely soaked in sugar." The hosts then gave him what looked to be motichoor laddoo. As he took a piece in his hand, he noted that it was "very dense." Naina explained that it was because it is made with ghee. She also told him that kids often steal this festive sweet because they like them so much. After tasting the laddoo, he said that he understood why kids would be inclined to do so.
