One thing that every Indian kid would have in common is their mom’s endless list of superstitions. From not cutting nails on Tuesdays and Saturdays to not keeping footwear upside down, moms always have their own set of reasons, most of them superstitious ones, to stop us. Among these, the one superstition we all know too well is about avoiding chicken on certain days—and it was creator Hitesh Sachdeva’s hilarious video on this very belief that caught our attention. Scroll on to check it out.
Viral Video On Mom’s Never-Ending Superstitions For ‘No-Chicken’ Days

Delhi-based content creator Hitesh Sachdeva (@taredraahiifilms) often posts hilarious videos with his mom. One of his videos that caught our attention recently was about his mom’s endless list of superstitions for not allowing him to eat chicken. The video was posted with the caption, “Aaj khaalu mammie chicken”, and it began with the content creator holding a chicken burger in his hand. While holding the burger, Hitesh calls his mom and asks, “Mummy, woh main keh raha tha ki aaj chicken kha sakta hoon ki nahi?” (“Mummy, I was just asking if I can eat chicken today or not?”) To which his mom replies, “Nahi, aaj Mangalwar hai.” (No, today is Tuesday).
The video continues with him holding the chicken burger over the next few days and seeking his mom’s approval, while his mom keeps saying, “Nahi, aaj Shaniwar hai, aaj Monday hai, aaj Amavasya hai, aaj Purnima hai, Navratri chal raha hai, Shraddh chal raha hai, aaj mera mood acha hai, aaj mera mood kharab hai, aaj mera happy birthday hai, aaj Shukrawar hai.” (“No, today is Saturday, today is Monday, today is Amavasya, today is Purnima, Navratri is going on, Shraddh is going on, today I’m in a good mood, today I’m in a bad mood, today is my birthday, today is Friday.”)
The twist comes when his friend tells him to eat it since his mom is not there to watch. Just as the content creator takes a bite, he finds his mom standing in front of him. The video gets epic when his mom later throws a shoe at him.

Internet Relates To The Video
With hundreds of comments and thousands of likes, the now-viral video has many netizens commenting that they could totally relate to it. Some even pointed out the days the creator forgot to add to the reel. A few joked that if all these reasons were put together, there would be no day left to eat chicken at all.
One user commented, “Aaj ekadashi hai.”
Another user added, “You missed many more.”
One user related to the video and wrote, “Aise krte krte pura mahina nikal jata phir parv ajata phir saal khatam hojata. Phir new year ajata phir kuch festival ajata. Phir kuch gharan lag jata aur aise pura chicken samaj baithe reh jata pinjare mai.”
One Instagram user also added, “Last scene was epic.”
