An Instagram user from Arunachal Pradesh, known as @shellcopter, shared a light-hearted video about how gifting a traditional jhaadu (broom) to her landlord in Delhi transformed their relationship. She described the jhaadu as sturdier and more durable than the flimsy brooms available in Delhi markets, which often wear out quickly. During a visit home, her mother suggested gifting one of the traditional jhaadus to the landlord instead of food. The gesture was a hit, leading the landlord to frequently request more jhaadus during her trips back home, even offering to pay for them. The woman emphasized the universal appeal of the broom and the significance of gifting something from one's home culture. The video gained traction, with viewers sharing similar experiences and humorous comments about the cultural exchange. Some even suggested the idea of branding the jhaadu to protect its uniqueness.
