Amma's hands trembled as she filmed her cooking video, teaching her granddaughter the proper way to grind coconut for sambar. The morning light caught the turmeric stains on her sari, golden evidence of decades spent in the kitchen. When the video went viral, bringing unexpected income, it felt surreal.
