Moment of Silence

HELLO & welcome back to another episode of MOMENT OF SILENCEWe’re back with peak vulnerability, peak chaos, and peak girl-gang energy — still manifesting that 100K era together. This week’s episode is basically emotional damage with a side of healing. From flopcorns that genuinely hurt our feelings, to “I thought my life was over” moments (yes, we want yours), to college romances that were either true love or pure character development — we’re unpacking it all.We get into sibling chemistry that deserves its own show, why female friendships will always be non-negotiable, and how run clubs and breathwork accidentally became our healing arcs. Things spiral (naturally) into Kim Kardashian’s brain scan, karma debates, Birkenstock lore you cannot skip, and why marrying the wrong man is truly a horror genre. There’s also plenty of internet chaos: Sakshi’s cancellation era, Smriti Mandhana wedding rumours, Akaash & Jasleen controversy talk, and the exhausting #proudrandi discourse — followed by rapid-fire madness because peace was never the goal.And of course…#AD Go Colors enters the chat - https://gocolors.com/pages/mostlysanecollectionHit play, drop your “my life is over” moment in the comments, tag your girls — and help us hit 100K so we can spiral (and heal) together on camera.

HELLO & welcome back to another episode of MOMENT OF SILENCE.We’re back with peak chaos, peak honesty, and peak girl-gang energy — and yes, we’re manifesting that 100K milestone together. This week’s episode feels like a full-time personality test: From December refusing to end, to discovering yet another patriotic dish, to Naina’s dramatic airport arc (Indigo, please), it’s giving India’s most unserious podcast — but make it comforting. We dive into the “middle-class tags” we can’t let go of, the price of living your girlhood dream, and the funniest pregnant-friend story that includes a man who absolutely did not sign up for this plot twist. There’s also a lot of financial self-drag: hydrafacials, Black Friday sales, black coffee addictions, and beauty treatments we would (or would not) do again. Plus — balding wars, packaging traps, rumours we’re debunking, Mumbai vs Delhi blowdries (!!), and a very wholesome Sindhi appreciation moment.And of course… #AD Moxie’s Anti-Dandruff range to the rescue — clean scalp, happy hair, and no flakiness (in life or love)- https://moxiebeauty.in/collections/scalp-revivingWebsite: https://moxiebeauty.in/Hit play, tell your bestie, and help us hit 100K so we can cry together on cameraChaptering:(00:00) – Welcome back!

HELLO & WELCOME BACK TO ANOTHER EPISODE OF MOMENT OF SILENCE — also known as the bravest space for crying, venting, healing and pretending we’re fine. This week, we’re deep-diving into every kind of tear: the math-exam tears, the restaurant-khichdi tears, the “my relatives didn’t order noodles” tears, and the elite-level bathroom-floor crying that honestly should count as cardio.We’re unpacking why women cry more, how anger shapeshifts as we grow up, and the unhinged triggers that send us into emotional spirals. There’s dad affection (twice a year, respectfully), celebrity crush posters, Ariana Grande memes, scary dreams, anxious-girlie hyper vigilance, and arguments where crying becomes the main character.We’re also rating the saddest places to cry, decoding crying during fights with boyfriends, and figuring out whether we’re team yell-it-out or team cry-into-a-pillow.Grab your tissues, your inner child, and whatever is left of your dignity — because this episode is peak emotional Olympics.

Also: hangovers, Holi, lacy lingerie and mothers who judge everything — plus the confession booth where we ask, “What have you hidden from your parents?” We finally tackle the eternal question — who pays on dates?— and decode Delhi marriage checklists, IKEA parenting stories, and the moment we introduced a whole new popcorn category (WHAT.
