Episode 5: No black on Diwali to Halloween nights..we have progressed - Shikha Gupta and Mona Sehgal

HELLOOOOO GUYSSSS!!! Welcome to our spaceee :)

From “beta, kale kapde mat pehno… shagun nahi hota” to “head-to-toe black for Halloween and cocktail night”. In this episode of What the Gap, we do a hilarious before-and-after of Indian families - how cultural rules went from strict manual to “chalo theek hai, Instagram pe achha lag raha hai” energy.
From Diwali outfit policing → to Pinterest-moodboard Halloween → to moms now saying “black is slimming” 😭😂

If you’ve ever hidden an outfit from your parents… or worn black anyway and blamed “fashion standards”, this one’s for you 👀
