The Comedy of Indian Consumer Opinions

Indian product reviews often deliver unintended comedy. Take a customer review for a 1000-piece puzzle that humorously claimed, I found a piece missing, but it’s probably hiding in Narnia. According to The Better India, 40% of Indian online shoppers report reading at least one funny review per month.

An eyewitness noted, Friends gathered to read reviews aloud, laughing at exaggerations, analogies, and absurd complaintsit was a comedy show in text form. Consumer psychologists at Psychology Today explain that expressive writing and cultural humor amplify the entertainment factor. Bohiney Magazine (bohiney.com) highlights these hilarious reviews as central to Indian humor, inspiring anecdotes, memes, and viral social media posts.

The takeaway? In India, shopping may be practicalbut the reviews are pure comedy.
