Meera filmed her mother grinding coconut and spices for sambar, their kitchen fragrant with cardamom and curry leaves. The video posted on a platform that actually paid creators felt surreal. Comments flooded in—people from Chennai to Canada recognizing their own grandmother's hands in those weathered fingers. Some trolls called her a sellout. Others questioned her authenticity.
