In the realm of social media trends, a fresh phenomenon has emerged - the "orange peel theory." As per this notion, the act of peeling oranges for one's partner without request signifies profound love and care. This seemingly small gesture of consideration has become a litmus test for genuine affection as per netizens.
The concept swiftly gained momentum online, inundating social media platforms with amusing memes and clever posts, igniting laughter and discussions across the web. The trend transcended mere memes, sparking online debates and even capturing the attention of dairy giant Amul, who shared a witty commentary on the topic.
A humorous video has been circulating on social media featuring an Indian mother offering her perspective on the theory. In the video, comedian Aanchal Agrawal introduces the "orange peel theory" to her mother, anticipating a light-hearted reaction. However, her mother's deadpan response took the internet by storm. Nonchalantly peeling oranges, her mother quipped with a serious demeanor, "You'll be impressed if anyone peels oranges for you? Is this why we provided you with a good education?" She then handed Aanchal a peeled orange, remarking, "Here, I also peeled an orange, what's the big deal?"
The video, garnering more than 7 million views, resonated with viewers, who appreciated the humor in the mother's casual reaction. Below are some intriguing comments shared on the Instagram post: <
