Who'd have thought something like a golgappa proposal would one day become a reality? The pandemic has made us go the full zany mile for a bit of happiness. Who's complaining? Definitely not this woman who was surprised with a wedding ring inside her favourite snack.
The way to a foodie's heart is through their stomach, everyone knows. But Twitter user @hanani0's partner knew it best, it seems, when he proposed to her with a diamond-studded golgappa. Did he just bump the bar of unique proposals several notches up? We think he did.
Scaling mountains, bringing the moon and the stars, fighting the world - every man makes these promises for his beloved, courtesy Bollywood. Just how many come alive? Almost none.
And really, are women even looking for that?
All we're looking for is a simple golgappa proposal. Because a golgappa never disappoints. It's true love.
See how happy the couple looks:
i mean,, can’t say no to pani puri

Gol gappay or pani puri are enjoyed by everyone and they are a real treat. But none of us would have imagined getting proposed through gol gappay. This man is doing things differently and after bizarre food proposals, pic.twitter.com/OwvGFc1Jd4
Couple's Golgappa Proposal Is Making Hearts Warm And Mouths Water
As per NDTV, the woman first shared snaps from her unique proposal on social media writing, "I mean, can't say no to pani puri." The duo has now locked their social media profiles.
However people know it - panipuri, golgappa, puchka - this is one snack Indians can't ever get enough of. Whether it's having Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi level golgappa-eating competitions or Queen level variation of beer golgappa, it's a timeless favourite.
And so foodie netizens who know what a big deal this snack is couldn't keep calm over the couple's sweet... er - spicy ring ceremony.
this is so CUTE WHAT THE HECK

But there seemed to be one common concern among golgappa enthusiasts:
I don't know you, but hi , Congratulations!! To the dude, you took a huge risk brother!! Most girls, including my better half , would have swallowed the Pani Puri with glee 😁😁God bless you both

But the things we do for love render us blind to these minor hiccups.
Like this man who proposed to his boyfriend at a vaccination centre in the US. Proposals and vaccines? Not sure how well they go together. It did for them and the internet loved them for it. Read about some unique pandemic weddings here.
