There’s a sound that defines Indian siblinghood. It’s not the teasing or the bickering. It’s the crunch. The unmistakable crunch of a hot pakora dunked in chai. The sharp crackle of a samosa being split in half one corner immediately claimed as “mine.” The clink of plates in a shared room, a shared mood, a […]
Rakhi isn’t just about rakhis anymore. It’s about recipes. Rewind to any Raksha Bandhan scene you’ve lived through. Tight hugs. Loose change in envelopes. That one cousin who shows up just for the food. And the plate is always central. Piled high with kaju katli, laddoos, and samosas that taste like a mother’s approval. But […]
What does it take to keep a memory warm? Sometimes, just a spoonful of ghee. Sometimes, a whiff of cardamom in grated carrots. And sometimes, all it takes is a microwave that doesn’t just reheat food but revives the emotion behind it. Because for many of us, Gajar ka Halwa isn’t just dessert. It’s the […]
Rakhi kitchens have one big problem. Too many hungry mouths. Too little time. One cousin wants dahi kebabs. The kids are already fighting over reheated pizza. Your mom’s making kachoris the traditional way and by the end of it, she’s exhausted. We celebrate love with food. But sometimes, the joy of feeding turns into the […]
What does a fridge have to do with family dynamics? More than you think. Especially during Raksha Bandhan. Because Rakhi isn’t just about tying threads. It’s a full-blown homecoming. From cousins flying in from different cities to dabbas stacked with kalakand, every Indian kitchen hits peak load. And here’s the thing: Most refrigerators were designed […]
Raksha Bandhan isn’t just about rakhis. It’s about routines that feel sacred. Mithai that’s made the night before, with your mom’s exact measurements. Rasna bottles in the fridge door, tilted at a perfect angle, just enough to chill without freezing.Leftover samosas getting covered with steel plates because the cling wrap ran out. In most Indian […]
Rakhi is not just about threads. It’s about thalis. Stuffed parathas layered with ghee. Mutton curry that simmers for hours. Kheer chilled to the perfect texture. And of course leftovers that no one wants to waste but everyone forgets about. Every Indian household has lived this paradox. We cook like we’re feeding a wedding, then […]
What happens when the most powerful AI in the world meets an overworked coder in an Indian hostel kitchen at 11:43 pm? Not a research paper. Not a business plan. Not even a line of code. What you get is paneer tikka popcorn. Yes, really. Because when you ask GPT-5 to help you survive late-night […]
What does Raksha Bandhan look like in a home where the kettle responds to voice commands and the TV recognises everyone’s binge preferences? Not like it used to. No paper-thin envelopes stuffed with ₹200 notes. No sprint to the market at 9PM for motichoor laddoos. And definitely no “just switch on the fan” kind of […]
A Bluetooth speaker is just a Bluetooth speaker until your brother buys it to fill the silence in your new flat. That’s how modern sibling gifting works. Not loud. Not flashy. But quietly thoughtful. Gone are the days when Raksha Bandhan gifts meant envelopes stuffed with cash or jewellery wrapped in cotton. Today, siblings are […]
Cricket in India isn’t a sport. It’s a system. One that’s emotional, unpredictable, loud, spicy and sacred. We don’t just watch matches. We build evenings around them. Snacks. Cousins. Group chats. Betting that “this over decides everything.” Now imagine if GPT-5 the most powerful AI yet controlled the temperature while this drama unfolded. Not through […]
Sibling love isn’t always spoken. It shows up in half-toasted bread passed across the dining table. In shared eye-rolls over leftover sabzi. In that precise moment at 12:38 am when someone asks, “Want Maggi?” and the other’s already reaching for the pan. In Indian homes especially in August, when Rakhi season hits peak nostalgia these […]
