Posts with same script has gone viral on X.
Mother’s intuitions have long been celebrated as a reliable source of wisdom, especially in a country like India. You and I know better than to ignore those maternal warnings, as they often save us from later repercussions and regret. However, it seems that some X users didn’t get the memo.
In a bizarre twist of fate — or perhaps not, as the popular saying goes “desi mothers think alike” — nearly every mother on X found herself feeling under the weather after indulging in the now-controversial Tirupati laddus.

It’s almost like a collective motherly intuition was whispering, “Maybe skip the laddu this time,” and yet, those sweet morsels were too tempting to resist!
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Wednesday, 18 September, made a significant allegation, claiming that animal fat was used in the preparation of these sacred sweets during the YSRCP regime. This assertion has sent shockwaves through the millions of devotees who hold these offerings dear.
Adding fuel to the fire, various social media accounts shared an unattributed page asserting that fish oil and beef tallow are part of the laddu recipe. This led to widespread concern and speculation among the faithful, who are understandably worried about the sanctity of this revered offering.
But here’s where it gets even more amusing. Amidst the chaos, we have a delightful trend emerging: A chorus of individuals posting their mothers’ prophetic warnings about those adulterated laddus. And surprise, surprise! They’re all saying the same thing — verbatim! Spelling mistakes included, of course.
“Since 2-3 years, Amma used to fall sick if she tasted Tirupati Laddu and used to tell us not to eat too much of it. We put it on her general paranoia as she has a hundred complaints about hyegine everywhere. Now I feel a part of her sensed something terribly wrong with the Laddu.”

While we often dismiss our mothers’ worries as “just paranoia”, it turns out they may have been onto something all along. Who knew that those maternal warnings would become a trending topic, serving as a cautionary tale for the ages?
As we scroll through a timeline filled with identical posts about “Amma’s sickness” after tasting the laddu, it’s hard not to chuckle. It seems like every user has taken a page from the same script, all sharing their tales of regret, wishing they had listened to their mothers. It’s as if a collective “I told you so” is echoing through the digital realm.
While genuine worries about food safety are commendable, the sheer uniformity of these tweets feels less like a grassroots movement and more like a well-rehearsed flash mob.
So, dear devotees, the next time you reach for a laddu, ponder this: Is it the taste of divinity you’re after, or just the flavour of an all-too-familiar internet frenzy? Choose wisely — after all, your mother might be watching!
