Instagram’s favourite social butterfly, Orhan Awatramani—better known as Orry—is back, bringing his signature humour and drama to the internet. This time, his inspiration? Popcorn, the humble snack now at the centre of India’s GST debate.
Recent tax updates have introduced varying GST rates for popcorn based on its flavour. Salted and spiced unbranded popcorn now carries 5% GST, while caramel-flavoured popcorn attracts a huge 18% tax. It was bound to bring in memes, which Orry could not help but respond to with some of his own.
In a new Instagram video, Orry broke the popcorn GST saga with the unique flair of his presentation style. Displaying two bowls, he quipped, “This is ‘namkeen’ popcorn with 5% GST, and this is ‘non-namkeen’ popcorn with 18% GST. I am also 18% GST.” Yep, you heard that right—Orry declared himself exclusive, explaining in his caption, “It’s because I’m sweet.”

Once again, Orry has proved that his charm can turn even tax talk into a social media spectacle, proving that Orry’s charm isn’t just limited to snack talk but transcends all conversations. Fans flooded the comments with playful banter, keeping the drama alive, as always, with Orry at the center.
