New Delhi, December 27, 2025: A wave of laughter was triggered across social media this week as a video of a foreigner struggling with Indian confectionery terminology went viral. In the clip, which began circulating on December 26, 2025, a man was observed expressing his deep disappointment while wandering through a Christmas market. The individual was seen lamenting the absence of his favorite Indian dessert, but it was his adorable mispronunciation that captured the internet’s attention. Instead of asking for “Gulab Jamun,” the man was heard repeatedly and confidently craving what he called “Gula Jmoon.”
The viral footage was originally shared on Instagram by the handle officialbigste, depicting the man’s genuine search for the syrupy delight. While his sadness at not finding the sweet was noted as “highly relatable” by Indian netizens, the emotional weight of the video was quickly overshadowed by its comedic value. The man was observed describing his ideal serving of “Gula Jmoons” paired with vanilla ice cream, proving that while he may have lacked the correct pronunciation, his knowledge of the classic “Desi” food combination was perfectly intact.

The reaction from the online community has been one of pure amusement and affection. The video has amassed hundreds of thousands of likes, with the comment sections flooded by users who claimed they would “never be able to say it the right way again.”
It was jokingly argued by many fans that the dish should be officially renamed to match the man’s version. One viral comment noted, “From now on, I am only ordering Gula Jmoon,” while another remarked that the mispronunciation sounded like a “fancy French version” of the beloved mithai.
The incident has been highlighted by digital creators as a rare example of “wholesome content” in an era often dominated by bizarre food fusion videos. Unlike the controversial “Gulab Jamun Omelette” or “Samosa Gulab Jamun” clips that have recently triggered disgust, this video was praised for its simplicity. The man’s sincere love for the dessert was seen as a testament to the global appeal of Indian cuisine, even when the language barrier leads to hilarious linguistic twists.
As the year 2025 draws to a close, the “Gula Jmoon” video remains a trending topic, serving as a reminder of how food can bridge cultural gaps through humor. The creator of the video has been lauded for his “pure vibes,” with several Indian sweet shops jokingly inviting him to visit so he can finally satisfy his craving. Whether it is called Gulab Jamun or Gula Jmoon, the consensus remains that the dish is “absolute heaven” in any language.
