India's street food culture is a flavour-packed adventure that can make your taste buds dance. From the sizzling sounds of local markets to the colour and chaos of bustling streets, you'll find a diverse array of deliciousness. Chaat stalls offer spicy and tangy treats like pani puri, while the aroma of kebabs grilling on roadside skewers is simply irresistible. Vendors expertly whip up dosas, crispy on the edges and stuffed with different fillings. Street food often captures our attention for several reasons and one of the recent viral videos concerns something that has been named "Pitai paratha."

In the Instagram reel, we see a street vendor who has decided to take a hands-on approach (quite literally) to create this unique paratha. With his bare hands as his tools, he beats the cooked paratha into a broken mashup, leading the internet collectively to wonder, "What did the paratha ever do to you?" Food delivery platform, Swiggy, also joined the conversation with a witty comment, "paratha be like: mujhe kyu toda??? [Why did you break me?]". Watch the complete video here:

Instagram users, thoroughly entertained by this culinary spectacle, flooded the comments section with a variety of remarks.
Relating to the scene, a person said, "Me when my bike's seat is dirty."
Another pondered, "Is he making paratha or washing clothes?"
A person suggested, “Brother wanted to be a Dhobi (laundry worker), but his father made him open a food stall.”
There were amusing observations like, “Beating that like it owes him money” and “No one will say anything, brother used to work in laundry earlier.”
Another comment noted, “Brother has reversed the paratha into flour again.”
There was even a suggestion to “get this guy in one of those face-slapping contests.”
Street vendors' skills go viral for many reasons. Recently, Anand Mahindra shared a video that shows a person mixing drinks in an awe-inspiring manner. Read the full story here.
