HELLOOO & welcome back to another episode of MOMENT OF SILENCE 🥂✨

This week, we’re unlocking the ultimate in-laws survival kit — because between MILs, FILs, Karwa Chauth fasts, and family WhatsApp groups, marriage comes with its own reality show drama. From hacks to dodge mother-in-law antics, to whether taking your partner’s surname is even worth it, we’re spilling all the tea (and lowkey trauma).

We talk Sidharth & Kiara, Sakshi’s Oscar-level adjustments for desi setups, Naina’s hot take on husbands moving in with wives’ families, and the scariest costume ever: a dulha outfit 👀. Add in food fight stories, Birkin bag negotiations, trending bahu reels, and some iconic Raj Shamani wisdom — and you already know this episode is peak chaos, but also kinda deep.

Hit play, drop your own MIL/FIL hacks in the comments, and subscribe so we can finally hit 100K 🥹💌

#ADYou know how life (and in-laws) can throw plot twists at you? Well, so can your skin. That’s why we’re obsessed with Pond’s new Biome Range — the Facewash + Gel duo that basically acts like a bestie for your skin barrier’s barrier. The Facewash gives a gentle cleanse without that tight-dry feeling, while the Gel delivers lightweight hydration that sinks in like a dream and keeps you glowing, not greasy. Science-y but simple, this duo balances, strengthens, and protects your skin so it can chill through chaos. Perfect for festive szn glow-ups, post-drama self-care, or literally anytime your skin needs a “we got you” moment — trust us, it’s skincare that doesn’t just work, it vibes.
