A Moment of Silence for Pregnancy Scares, Rom-Coms and Relatable Celebrities

HELLO AND WELCOME BACK TO ANOTHER EPISODE OF MOMENT OF SILENCE!You asked, and we delivered — pink is back, baby! From one person’s trash being another person’s treasure, to a trip to Baroda for a fashion show (that somehow turned into a protein intake conversation), this episode is packed with peak flopcorn moments of the week. We also get into how a gynaecologist visit can feel more like someone entering your guarded space, but when pregnancy might be knocking, you answer all the questions anyway. Sakshi’s first day at work was exciting… until she had no device to work on, which led to an uncontrollable urge to order an iPad via quick commerce. And don’t trust celebs who claim their favourite food spot is a random hawker — we know better.Now coming to the main topic of the episode — are romantic comedies here to stay? We dive into whether rom-coms still entice us, while revisiting a few that truly nailed the genre. Plus, we unpack all the dating advice rom-coms have fed us over the years: meet-cutes, love at first sight, beards as different phases of a man’s life, and so much more.Also, Sima Taparia has written a book — thoughts? And we get real about sharing space with men, whether it’s cuddling, spooning, or a hotel bathroom situation. Of course, we don’t stop there — we also spill some teeny weeny (but very real) details about our own relationships.We have the winners for the Weirdest Hair Stories in association with Moxie!
