A video of a Russian woman staying in Bengaluru after her marriage with an Indian is going viral on social media. The woman identified as Yulia, has shared eight things that she finds normal in the country but seem cringy to outsiders.


Yulia moved to India 11 years ago after leaving her job in Russia. She was able to build a family and a new business in India. Yulia says that while some things here surprised her at first, they are now part of her daily life.


Yulia said that all these practices, which may seem strange to outsiders, have brought comfort and joy to her daily routine. She started the video by sharing her experience of living with her in-laws. Although it seemed unusual at first, she now sees it as a blessing.


Eight things she said

  • Living together with your in-laws. It is a blessing (at least for me, I don't have to do any household chores).
  • Eat with your hands. Eating with your hands is often tastier (and that's a scientific fact).
  • Be a bit late. I am ok with people being late by 15-20 minutes, but I keep my meeting gaps and plan accordingly.
  • There will be maids to do everything. Initially, I found it strange. But you know, it's human nature to seek such convenience and be a little lazy.
  • Speak a few languages at the same time. I can catch the meaning in Hinglish.
  • Will discuss everything. In India, we will not only discuss business matters here, we will discuss many other things.
  • We will make tea with milk and spices.
  • Dedicate life to love. Indians are very emotional about their country. I found it amazing.

Hundreds of people, including Indians, commented on what she said. Millions of people watched the video. 'I support everything except the first one. ‘It also depends on who one chooses,’ one commented. ‘The first thing is that it is rare in Indian homes (that in-laws don't force them to do household chores). You are very lucky, you have definitely chosen a good family,’ another commented.
