"He Lowkey Cooked": Internet Is In Awe Of Functional Grill Inside Sneakers For On-The-Go Burgers

NDTV29-04-2025
There's no direct connection between sneakers and cooking, isn't it? But recently, Russian designer Alexander Osipov, who goes by the pseudonym Canyaon, made an unexpected collaboration with the popular American restaurant brand Frank by Basta. It features a pair of sneakers that can be used to grill meat. No, we are not kidding. In a video shared on Instagram, Canyaon presented viewers with this unbelievable feat: preparing a burger on the sneakers. The shoes, equipped with a built-in mini-grill platform, allow customers to cook food on the go.
The clip shows a person switching on the built-in stove, positioned on the sneaker's toe cap. Once the gas is lit, he places a mini pan on top. A sufficient quantity of oil is poured into it. Next, on a small wooden chopping board, the man slices tomatoes, pickles and cabbage. He slathers a fresh bun into the oil-laden pan and sautes onions in the cookware. In the final step, the man garnishes the onions with a pinch of salt. And voila! A tasty burger is ready to be savoured. The side note read, 'cooking sneakers'. How cool is that?

The internet was quick to react to the post.
'Did your toes feel toasty?' wondered a user jokingly.
'This is the most unnecessary gig I have ever seen on this app lmaoooo,' confessed another.
'He lowkey cooked,' noted one person.
An individual wanted to know whether 'the board and knife come with' the pair of sneakers.
A flabbergasted remark read, 'Did I just watch this dude cooking a Krabby Patty with his sneakers?'
Here's what this user had to say: 'Wow, I need to up my sneaker game.'
So far, the video has garnered more than 7.8 million views.

Farah Khan gets envious of Amitabh Bachchan's handwritten letter of praise for Radhikka Madan: ‘Please mujhe bhi bhejdo'

Bollywood filmmaker Farah Khan, known for her signature wit and humour, brings plenty of laughs in her latest vlog. This time, she visited actor Radhikka Madan's home, where the two shared a fun and candid time together. From giving viewers a quick tour of Radhikka's house to cooking Aloo Puri in her kitchen, Farah kept the entertainment coming.

What Hulk Hogan meant for Indians, and America in India

Around 1993-94, a six-year-old was hanging on for dear life onto the railing with one hand and the other clutching his mother lest he fall out the door of one of Delhi's once-infamous Red Line buses. Terrified, but unwilling to show it, the boy shouted, 'Hulk Hogan ki yahi pehchan, peeli kacche, phati banyaan'. Everyone in earshot, including the driver and conductor, burst out laughing and soon, the kid had pride of place – sitting on the large covering over the gear stick, next to the driver. Hulk Hogan (the stage name Terry Bollea was known by), who died on July 24 at the age of 71, likely didn't realise the impact he – and the WWF, later WWE – had on a country that had just been opened up to the American. But for a generation, particularly the boys among them, wrestling was our soap opera and our cultural context. It shaped how we saw the US in much the way Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan moulded our view of mythology. And America was, at least back then, a mythical place. Liberalisation – both in terms of how it pushed up upper-middle-class incomes and impacted culture – didn't truly hit till the 2000s. In the early '90s, most of us were much more 'local', still struggling to be part of the flattening of culture that shows like Friends and Seinfeld would later bring about. Today, Americanisms are a part of the vocabulary for most Indian English speakers. 'My bad' (instead of my fault) and 'I'm good' (not as a moral assessment but to say 'I am well') are thrown about without a thought for the poor English teacher who taught us the basics of grammar. It wasn't so when Hulkamania – and Bret Hart, The Undertaker, Lex Luger, Shawn Michaels, Razor Ramon and Yokozuna – came into the lives of today's millennials. Nonsense rhymes like the one uttered on the bus were the most common form of comedy: 'Yokozuna went to Poona, eating Choona' or 'Undertaker, ice cream maker', etc. WWF Trump cards were the card game of choice, and recreating wrestling matches was practically a sport. The first 'fancy' birthday parties were wrestling-themed – with masks and championship belts. The first designer cakes were shaped like wrestlers. As the kids grew up, WWF-WWE kept up. The risque 'attitude era' meant boys kept imitating Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H – giving the middle finger and the 's***k it' gesture. It was dangerous, feeding the proto-adolescent's desire for risk-taking and masculine assertion. Wrestling – and most of all Hulk Hogan – clearly had a deep cultural impact. And this impact became a weapon for the assertion of American soft power and propaganda. Hogan, 'a good guy' for much of his career (he did 'turn heel' and become 'Hollywood Hogan' for a while), was the first global wrestling superstar. And he was an all-American hero. His nemesis was the Iron Sheik (an evil, conniving character from West Asia). His theme song was 'I am a Real American' and justified military intervention in the name 'fighting for the rights of every man'. And we swallowed it all up, as kids, without knowing better. Blond American, good guy. Brown and Black, not as much. Through soap-opera plots, Hulk and the WWF kept us hooked. Wrestling today no longer pretends to be 'real'; it has many more stars and looks way more slick. In deference to the Indian market, it made superstars of the Great Khali and Jinder Mahal. Hulk Hogan had his share of controversies, a reality show and something of a sordid personal life. But for those who idolised him when they were five, who remembered the rhyme about his costume when hanging out of the door of a bus, there will always be a soft spot for Hulkamania.
