I've always said, the weirdest things become viral on the internet. Think of all the people who became wildly popular on TikTok sometimes for no reason at all. And then remember how a truly banal scene in some TV soap became viral years after it was actually aired? Kokilaben asking the world about who was in the kitchen became a veritable meme-fest. Now apparently there is a ‘pawri’ and #PawriHoriHai.
She is a social media personality and content creator with over four lakh Instagram followers This short video of hers went wildly viral. She’s saying party, but because of the accent, people are hearing ‘pawri’.
Remember Yashraj Mukhate who made the Kokilaben rap? Well the ‘pawri’ video caught his eye as well and he made this remix version of it.
The pawri remix became really viral too; and the original party pawri maker liked it too.
The original pawri-girl Dananeerr is from Peshawar, Pakistan, but her video is viral on both sides of the border.
Apparently the problems of Karachi are much the same as the problems we face in some of our Indian cities.
This is us, and this our… whatever fits.

This is us, our car and our party. Many other brands jumped on the 'pawri' bandwagon.
This book brand used a Harry Potter reference to speak about their own ‘pawri’.
They made their own version of the pawri video and shared those made by others.
People were sharing all sorts of ‘pawri hori hai videos’ on Twitter.
This one speaks about that freeloader friend who avoids repaying his borrowings.

Party harder.
So from now on, people will pawri, not party.
