Her fans those who have made memes on her "looking like a wow" video-include Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, Allu Arjun, international model Ashley Graham, Nick Jonas, the Ministry of Railways and even someone's pet cat. Last week, she was invited on Bigg Boss 17 to meet the contestants.
Kaur is a middle-aged shop owner who has been selling salwar kameez sets in Delhi's not-so-posh Tilak Nagar for the last 18 years. Her aggressive hard-sell as well as her cuckoo mix of Hindi and English, paying no heed to syntax, have made her quite the entertainer. The 'looking like a wow' video features Kaur during an Instagram Live selling suit sets in an assortment of colours. She has a method to her linguistic madness. Colours are described in innovative ways: baingani purple (brinjal purple) or jamuni purple, ladoo yellow, ghiya green (gourd green), wine colour, pyaaz pink (onion pink), and of course the very famous muddy brown or "mouse colour".

Our strange democracy
Abraham Lincoln is lauded as among the very best presidents the US ever had: the statesman par excellence successfully steered the nation through the devastating and perilous years of the American civil war. Not only did Lincoln manage to keep his country united, he also ensured the passage of the 13th amendment to the US constitution, which abolished slavery.
Five years of post-pandemic fashion
It has been five years since we discovered what Covid-19 was, and five years since it disrupted the world forever. The World Health Organization activated their emergency systems on January 1, 2020, and informed the world by January 4, 2020. By the end of that week, they had set guidelines for various countries to follow. Comparable to the Spanish flu of 1918, more than 7 million people have died of Covid according to official data. Unofficially, no one has an idea. WHO has just this week asked China to provide critical data to understand the virus's origins as a “moral and scientific imperative”.
