My laptop is frying my uterus?
2026/09/18
Hiii mosquitoes, welcome back to another episode of Moment of Silence! This week, Sakshi and Naina get into the question that starts stalking every woman at some point in her twenties: motherhood.

And how much of yourself are you willing to give up to become a mother? Plus, the moms of MOS wrote in to tell us their experiences of motherhood, leaving us feeling extremely humbled.

This week the girls are going into the bedroom (metaphorically only) to open the conversation on intimacy and all the insecurities that come with it in the big 2026. With certified intimacy coordinator Naina Bhan in the house, we decoded a few stories sent in by our lovely listeners and told you exactly how insecurities can go f*ck themselves. This one's for all the girlies who keep thinking about laundry even when they're getting very down & dirty.

Is telling your partner what to wear okay? feat. Raunaq Rajani
2026/08/28
Helloo people of MOS, this week on Moment of Silence we had the internet's resident relationshit-stirrer visit us in the studio for a very special Rakhi episode. That’s right: the much requested Sir Raunaq Rajani took over the couch and delivered a year’s worth of chaos: on evergreen IP secrets, yoga class exploitation, a detention arc, and the life-changing experience of wearing MOS merch for the first time.
After spilling some tea (and only one whole cup of coffee), Raunaq and Sakshi went head to head on whether ganjis are acceptable sleep fashion and we still do not have a conclusive answer so we are leaving it in the comments where it belongs.
Safe to say Raunaq is now a certified Mosquito after this one so hit that play button and say a little prayer for our couch while you are at it.
Speaking of prayers: did you know all of yours will be answered if we hit 100k? Better go subscribe NOW. One of your eyebrows might fall off if you don’t do it. See you next week!

Our favourite Bollywood movies feat. Ida Ali & Kareema Barry
2026/08/14
Hiii Mossies, it is that time of the week again - we are back and the couch was feeling a lil extra hot because we had TWO beautiful guests joining us. The stunning miss Ida Ali is officially making her MOS debut while the magnificent miss Kareema is well on her way to becoming our honorary regular.

From Luck By Chance to Rang De Basanti to Raazi to... Ladies vs Ricky Bahl? This one's got reccos you'll never see coming - so go hit that play button already.

Are we delusional in love? feat. Prashasti Singh
2026/07/31
Hellooo Mossies, cancel the ab workout because this episode will have you laughing your way to that 6-pack. The hilarious, awe-inspiring, gorgeous Prashasti Singh walked into the MOS studio and did not stop delivering for a single second.
Prashasti shared her workout woes and the struggles of being a celeb at the gym. We tried to bring up role models for Indian women and somehow ended up with an iconic story about a microwave donation scheme. Prashasti then gave us a sneak peek into what it really means to come to terms with being single, thriving in your 30s on your own terms, and her very specific ritual of pining before channeling it into comedy gold. Safe to say, this one’s a little unhinged, and A LOT of fun.

Hello people of MOS, today's video is a little different. The khi-khi is slightly on pause because we wanted to sit down and have a conversation about what we are feeling about everything that is happening in the country right now. We’re not here to tell you what to think. We are not experts and we are not claiming to have all the answers. We hope you listen with an open heart.

Best Friend Or Boyfriend - Who Would You Save?
2026/07/10
Hiii Mossies, no need to hold your horses (unless your horse just wants a hug) because WE’RE BACK with another episode this fine evening!
Naina is freshly returned from the land of our colonizers and sooo ready to give us the lowdown with stories involving wrong trains, airport divorces and a plea for a mandatory photography course for the boyfriends of gorgeous women. Trains seemed to be a recurring theme this episode as we also tried to solve the trolley problem and debated some very pressing moral dilemmas such as: Should you betray your best friend with a chopped pic on her birthday? Does your daughter deserve a stanley? What if the birkin of husbands wanted to leave your bestfriend for you? Can the European trip reeeally wait when your son is failing maths?The answers to all this, and then a classic twist on the classic trolley problem.
Speaking of moral compasses (moral compii) you should really check yours because it’s broken if you haven’t subscribed yet. Hit like share comment hype subscribe and don’t pull any levers until we hit 100k. See you next week!
