Since being uploaded, it has gained 4000 likes and several likes.One person in the Twitter comments said, “My husband’s family is Nouth Indian (Sindhi born and raised in Bangalore and I am Sorth Indian (Tamilian born and raised in Mumbai). What does that make our kid? My (now adult) son gets really upset when asked about identity.” A second person said, “Girl from a Palakkad Tamil fam raised in Delhi. Love Chole Bhature, Paranthe with Achar, and speak a Hinglitam- Hindi, Tamil&eng. Who am I? A billion-dollar question. But I’m loving it.” “Good job. I grew up in the opposite configuration (in North India South Indian parents) so I can relate to him. I have learned a new term called liminal identity that applies to people like your son and me. He was much cleverer than I was at 9,” said a third.
