A humorous Instagram reel by Pakistani creator 'the__chaudary' has gone viral, amassing more than 373,000 views for its playful take on women's participation in the ongoing CJP protests, using a Partition-themed punchline.
The Reel That Sparked Laughter Across Borders
Titled “Partition krty waqt baddies India chor ay hain hum!!”, the video reacts to footage of women leading the protests, many carrying sticks (dande-sotey) and taking charge. The creator quips that during Partition, Pakistan left behind all the “baddies” in India, marveling at the women’s fearless presence. He calls them “khawateen krantikari” (revolutionary women) and says that “not even the ‘B’ of baddies” made it across the border.
Cross-Border Reactions Pour In
The tongue-in-cheek reel has sparked lively engagement in the comments section. Among the responses are: “Hahahaha.. I loved this.. love from India,” “Ye hamare India ki sherniya hai bro,” and “For women to come out and speak, you need to respect them, give them freedom & independence. Wo tum logon sey hota nahi hai and you need baddies.” Another user wrote, “I’m sure same number of baddies are there too. Try giving them a safe space, they will thrive.”
Humour Meets Commentary on Women’s Assertiveness
The reel has resonated with users for blending humour with commentary on the visibility and assertiveness of women at the CJP protests. The comments section has evolved into a mix of cross-border banter, appreciation, and discussion on women’s participation in public life. The creator’s lighthearted take has effectively highlighted the contrasting perceptions of women’s roles in both countries, while keeping the tone playful.
