Danish Influencer Hilariously Mistakes Amitabh Bachchan for “Legendary Papad Guy” in Viral Video
June 22, 2025: In a hilarious and heartwarming moment that’s taken the internet by storm, a Danish woman named Frederikke—popularly known as Bhukkad Bidesi on social media—mistook Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan for the maker of her favorite Indian snack: papad.
In a now-viral Instagram reel, Frederikke held up a packet of Bikaji Papad, which features a photo of Amitabh Bachchan, and said earnestly, “This guy makes the best papadum.” Unaware of Big B’s global stardom, she sincerely asked the internet for help:
“If you know him, let him know how good papadum he makes.”
Frederikke, who first tasted papad in Nepal, expressed her love for the crispy Indian snack and shared her struggle to find it in Copenhagen, Denmark.
“I bought this papad back in Nepal and haven’t found it anywhere in Copenhagen. I’m running low… if anyone knows where to get this or who this legendary papad guy is, please help.”
The video quickly caught the attention of amused Indian netizens, who flooded the comments with playful replies and humorous takes on Bachchan’s supposed culinary ventures.
One user joked, “He also used to grow basmati rice at India Gate, New Delhi,” while another added, “He also gave me polio drops. I’m alive today because of him.”
The internet didn’t stop there. “Yeah. He personally hand-rolls each papad in his Mumbai mansion. Real artisanal stuff,” quipped a fan. Others joined in with jokes about Amitabh’s imaginary ventures into PVC pipe manufacturing and Soan Papdi production.
Even Jaya Bachchan wasn’t spared, with some users sharing her iconic GIFs “scolding” Frederikke for not recognizing India’s legendary actor. One person cheekily commented, “He learnt it from his wife. She makes great papadam out of paparazzi.”
Whether Frederikke eventually finds her favorite papad in Denmark or not, she’s certainly found fame in India—and sparked one of the most wholesome internet moments of the year.
