The video has sparked a flurry of amusing and enthusiastic comments from netizens. The comments section featured practical advice and playful critiques. One user asked, "But, did you also give them the complementary sookha puri? It should be illegal to sell Pani Puri without a complementary Sookha Puri." Another comment warned, "Beware!!

The love for panipuri was evident in many comments, including one that read, "We Indians are great because we can make anyone develop a habit for our Indian food, especially this pani puri." There will be cravings to have this daily." A Bengali user shared their passion for the dish, saying, "And here I am unable to stop watering in my mouth. It’s called phuchka in Bengali and in Kolkata. I can die for it."

Curry Corner has previously posted other food-related videos, including one featuring their vegetable samosa. While this video received less attention, with about 88,000 views, it still managed to generate interest and advice from viewers. One user suggested, "Brother, don't put the samosas into extremely hot oil. Add them when the oil is just slightly warm, and then let them cook slowly. This way, the samosas will turn out nice and crispy."
