The Gen Z panipuri vendor in Mumbai was seen dressed in combat-style attire. He is seen spraying the tangy water into puris and even directly into customers’ mouths. The quirky presentation amused onlookers and impressed social media users, who praised the creativity and startup potential. A Mumbai-based panipuri seller has gone viral for ditching the traditional ladle and serving jaljeera using a brightly coloured super-soaker water gun, turning a regular snack stop into a full-blown performance. The unusual serving style was captured by Mumbai vloggerSakshiGadhave and shared on Instagram, where it quickly grabbed attention. She cheekily described the experience as: “Panipuri, but make it combat edition.”
More on the viral clip of a combat-style attired panipuri street vendor.
The now viral clip shows the vendor dressed in dark, combat-style clothing, complete with tactical accessories that give him a dramatic, “Matrix-inspired” look. Instead of carefully spooning flavoured water into each puri, he loads jaljeera into a water gun and sprays it into the crispy shells with impressive aim. After filling the puris with the classic spicy mashed potato mixture, he shoots the tangy water directly into them, and in some cases, straight into customers’ mouths as they lean back, ready for the burst of flavour. The speed and precision with which he moves from one customer to the next add to the entertainment factor.
