A dish from One8 Restaurant, co-owned by Indian cricketer Virat Kohli, went viral after a woman posted a photo of the dish she ordered for Rs 525. The photo showed a few slices of corn (bhutta). “Paid Rs. 525 for this today at One8 Commune,” she wrote in the caption.

The photo was uploaded on January 11 and has garnered over 1.2 million views in the last two days. Later, she also shared another photo of a news article mentioning, “Indian Twitter journalists woke up Monday morning and got straight to writing articles.”

A user commented, “I mean, don’t mind me saying this, but you knew this would go the way it would, bro. Don’t tell me ‘you didn’t expect this.’ You more than anybody must know it’s a template engagement bait material.” To which she replied, “I am not a marketer.”

Sneha had ordered a dish grandiosely named Peri Peri Corn Ribs at the Hyderabad eatery. A description of the dish on the menu revealed that the corn would be served with garlic aioli, parmesan cheese, and scallion. According to her social media X account, she studies at the Indian School of Business.

One social media user commented on her food post, “Sent this to your dad/mom,” while another user remarked, “You paid for the ‘community’ One8 has created 🙂 ~ the people hanging around, the music, the vibe … coming from the high rent, higher than average staff salary, etc., etc., etc.”
