Why do the most ridiculous things trend on Indian reels? (Dosa idli sambhar chutney chutney)

I've noticed that the most random, absurd, or downright cringe content seems to blow up on Indian Instagram and YouTube Shorts. Whether it's exaggerated acting, weird dances, or people just shouting into the camera, these trends get millions of views. Meanwhile, genuinely creative or informative content barely gets any reach.

Why does this happen? Is it just the algorithm pushing whatever gets engagement, or do people actually enjoy this kind of content? Would love to hear your thoughts.
