The food vlogger walks up to the seller and says, “1 dedo bhaiya jaldi jaldi (Give me a quick coconut water).” Without wasting a second, the seller grabs a knife, cuts off a part of the peel and drills a precise one hole in the coconut before giving it to the vlogger. “Lelo (take),” he says in Hindi. The video ends with the seller shouting “Nariyal”. Nariyal Pani pee lo. (Coconut, drink coconut water),” similar to the salespeople in India who attract customers with a certain pitch in their voice.
