Come Ramzan and public start contemplating food walks and Eid invites. Me, I look forward to Ramzan humour. Memes about sehri, date-puns (“Roze ko jisse todteuse kehte khajoor/jisko dekhke public sar todti use kehteArjun Kapoor’), and the tashan of darzis.The delights of Dakkhani are key here. There was Danish Sait’s series of Pyari Bakri versus Gopal the Goat. Now, I have been following @cutiesaad18, a little boy from Bangalore. His reels about parents involved in Ramzan shopping and Iftar preparations are redolent with Dakkani sarcasm, replete with ‘thoo’s, dark looks and muhavras (dil deewana gurde hoshiyaar) and dalindar baataan all tastier than mirchi ka salan.

But these have taken a back seat thanks to an online explosion of what we can only call Roza pop: These devotional songs extol the grace of roza, the beatitude of God and of course, the joys of iftar, but always set to popular Bollywood tunes of songs whose original lyrics are far from halal. Indeed many are originally item numbers.
