The latest episode of Curly Tales’ Tere Gully Mein opened on a familiar note: a lip-smacking smash of snacks, cameras rolling, and a guest ready to bust some myths. Lakshay Chaudhary, YouTuber and social commentator with a knack for being unapologetically direct, joined us for a meal that included the ever-reliable duo of dosas and idlis, along with chhole bhature and filter coffee. The food spread was simple, comforting, and candidness and wit were the extra guests throughout the episode.
Lakshay Chaudhary Busts Common Jaat Myths
The real punch of the episode came less from the chutneys and sambar, and more from the myths Lakshay Chaudhary took head-on. We asked him about the kind of stereotypes Jaats often find themselves boxed into. And his response was more candid and funny than anyone expected.
He pointed to one of the most enduring stories in circulation: that Jaat men date freely but vanish when marriage becomes part of the conversation. The common idea is that Jaats may get into relationships, but marriage is a different story, because they cannot marry outside their caste, he explained.

This Tale Will Leave You In Splits
He added that he’s heard plenty of accounts from women who claim their Jaat boyfriends walked away when relationships reached the marriage point. He busted the myth by adding a real-life example of his own family and said that his own cousins have married outside of caste.
Lakshay’s delivery was witty, which turned an uncomfortable stereotype into a laugh-out-loud moment. There was something unusually honest about the way he addressed the myth. He just laid it bare, letting the audience chuckle at how such myths become folklore, repeated so often they start sounding like unwritten rules.
And this is what Tere Gully Mein is all about! It’s about letting food anchor the conversation and giving space for honesty, however messy or funny it may be. Lakshay brought that mix in perfect proportion. He turned stereotypes into witty one-liners and left the audience with a better sense of how myths live and breathe in everyday life.
