We DID NOT expect this in DELHI 🇮🇳 | Hauz Khas Village
It's easy to think of India's capital New Delhi as a massive concrete jungle. Most foreigners impressions of the city is that it's chaotic and dirty. Plenty of those areas do exist in Delhi but there's also plenty of nice, clean and peaceful areas.
Haus Khas Social was a complete culture shock. It was almost the opposite what we had been experiencing the first few days in India. Modern... neon... cocktails... and hip hop!
Hauz Khas is famous for it's Momos and quirky hipster nightlife...

Enjoying working for ourselves, we didn’t want to give up our business and decided it was entirely possible for us to do both. So we set about making it our lifestyle to work in the UK for a month, and then travel for a month - month on, month off…. until our little boy Nyh goes to school!

No, it's not for good luck for them. It is to show affection to the child without transfering their germs to the kid. In ancient India people had a lot of do's and don'ts about touching etc. Most things were done in a way to avoid contact with people you didn't know closely. Even our greeting Namaste is designed to show respect while keeping your hands to yourself. So this gesture is a leftover remnant of an old custom.
Ye trika h ki bacchon ke prati prem sneh khusi muskan or uske isi muskurahat eeise bni rhe ye darsata h...
What they really want to do is kiss the kid, but they don't want to pass their germs on to a small child whose immunity is lower than that of an adult, in short Indians are thoughtful
It means love
It's just to Express their love ❤❤
You will notice that they will not kiss the kid directly on the face, unless it is a family kid. It is a sign of blessings.
Absolutely
Seconding this.
Exactly
Kiss is good
This would be my answer too for the question.
A child's cheak is soft and fluffy so it's just a way to express love towards the child
🖤 cute
BRUH WHY SCAM
My dad came to pick up chairs and an IN guy told him to pay 100$ more for nothing-.-
@@liloistheendiahater it's his personality not indians!
@@liloistheendiahater oh your dad is a poor worker.....
It's a way to express love here in India
A beautiful tradition.
I hate it even tho I’m an Indian
As a baby FU-!
Best way. Just ....maintain distance from foreigners ....if we do good things they also feel disrespect
Shit tradition
Admiring the cuteness of babies and showing love towards them
Creepy horrible culture
It’s the harmless / hygienic way of a kiss. A virtual kiss for lack of better word. 😎
Love that 🖤
Exactly the reason....it's like handshake and namaste 🙏
Agree to this reply- harmless and hygienic
I am indian....and yes in a way you can say that...🙏
couldn't say better 🙏
It's like an indirect kiss on the cheeks, to express love and how cute the baby is!
Beautiful.
yeah!
Yeaa best way to prevent the spread of the cow disease u know
@@liloistheendiahater oh your mum is a disease?
@@liloistheendiahater better than pig 🐽 eating.
It’s a clean way of giving the beloved child a kiss and express their love and affection towards them.
Kids are divine. its a way of expressing one's deep sense of love and apreciation they feel within❤
It's just that they want to show affection and blessings to the kid yet don't want him to make uncomfortable by kissing directly on the cheeks. It's a cute gesture and makes the child feel loved and cared for in their presence
Correct 💯❤️❤️
Exactly
Exatly. This is correct reason.
Correct explanation
Correct explanation!
It’s a form of showing affection while maintaining the boundary that it’s your kid and they cannot kiss him directly.
Ya
Exactly
Perfect explanation
Perfect explanation
Correct
It's just unconditional love for the kid. It's a way of saying God bless him/her. Kids in india grows up not only with his parents but are raised by the entire neighborhood, uncle's , aunties so they are not scared to walk up to a stranger and play with their kids.
Its a gesture of showing love and blessing the child. ❤
They want to kiss your child's cheek since they find him cute but they don't want to overstep their boundaries. Similar to a flying kiss
They didnt want to spread the cow disease i think
Correct
Absolutely correct
Great Answer 👍
This is about right. And who knows what infection one could transfer inadvertently with a direct kiss?
It’s an indirect kiss when you’re not so familiar, and still showing love and affection❤
Can't explain any better than this one 👍
Accurate reply 👌
@@chinnu8330 pop
Exactly
that is true. we avoid kissing as it is infectious
It expresses kid is "soooo sweeeeeeeet" and may Bhagwan bless that child and be protected from bad energy
It’s just expression of love. As they can’t directly kiss the baby on cheeks (which is norm at home), they are showing affection by touching the cheeks and kissing that hand.
In India, people would love to hold the baby and pamper them, no matter who they are. ❤
If someone is doing this to your child. It means they genuinely adore your kid. It's a way to express their love towards kid.
Agree❤👌
The reason they touch the cheek and kiss is because they are strangers to you and it’s not appropriate to kiss directly on the cheeks . They just want to express their love and affection to the kids .To add on , they not only touch the cheeks but sometimes also chin and kiss .They do this for adults too .They respect your privacy but still show their love to others ❤
Very much right
Yea, wishing the calf will become a cow in the future
@@liloistheendiahater you are a lovely creation God and we appreciate it!! With Blessings of be happy, be innocent and lovely always !!
Let Nothing selfish, corrupt and cunning spoil you.
Oh, you are bathing yet in cows products??
Mother's milk is first and only source of your survival since several thousand centuries for the vegetarian, agriculture dependant families. Cow milk was and is most parallel to mother's milk and hence it's treated as a very close family member equivalent to mother of the family. These sensitivity related practices won't be understood by butchers, mother eaters unfortunately as they had different challenges for their survival !!!
Free are those who really understand the ancient Indian practices (many of which are demolished by Western influences in the cities though)
Kuch bhi

It's an expression of love in India and also when they find someone adorable ❤ this is one of the ways to show love
It’s a sign of affection which many parents lack. Kids always remember when they grow up that they were little loved.
Instead of directly placing your lips on the baby's cheeks, which is infectious, they pull the cheek and kiss their own fingers which is equivalent of placing your lips on the cheeks.❤
This is the CUTEST thing I’ve ever heard of💕💕💕💕
Yeah better than spreading herpes.
Came here to write this ... Thanks for giving the right answer
true👍
Yes, exactly, and men don't want to poke the baby skin with the unshaved beard
To show love & affection, we don't direct kiss the cheek when we are not close to them so instead we do this
Out of love and letting the child know that he or she is loved
To kiss is not healthy by med.
Exactly.We don't kiss directly due to hygienic reasons.Parents may get offended too 😂But we can't help showing our love for the kid.
Your definition is perfectly right
Definitely right
It's symbol of saying baby is cute without telling baby is cute❤❤❤😊😊
All the children are innocent and instead of kissing them , they touch the cheek and kiss expressing their love ❤❤❤
instead of kissing direct on the cheek, they touch your cheek and kiss the touched fingers. It is just an affectionate expression ,a gesture to tell you that they welcome you with love and happiness that they met you and like you. Just as we do it with a small child. They love you from their heart.
They treat you guys like their own child it's a way of expressing their love and affection
Pinching cheeks usually hurts kids. That's why in India it's more common to touch the cheek than pull it.
@@perfectsid333 it's not pulling pulling bud. People just feel it and kiss to show affection.
Please don't touch other kids
@@blitzkriegedvanhauten5261 I have seen a 70 year old Indian man pulled to court by an Australian lady for touching her 5 year old daughter. The man was new to that country and thought of showing his affection. But mom didn't understand the cultural differences and the man was warned by the judge and fined
It's our 🇮🇳 way of showing love❤ to each and every one ...
It shows love and affection for the child ❤️
Every parent is protective over their child and we just like to do that as an indirect kiss on the cheek because some parents don’t like their child being kissed
This is 💯
True. Most of the people think it is unhygienic to kiss a child with lips. This way they are not kissing directly
Yes
Instead of physically kissing, it's a kissing gesture when you see someone's child but don't want to kiss them to not transfer germs. It's become a common practice
I don't think it's about germs
It’s because it’s unhygienic to kiss directly. This is how everyone kiss younger ones or someone you love, to show your affection. They don’t go for face or hand and kiss.if asked you will hear answer as “It’s kissing because she/he is lovable”, because everyone (majority) follow parents without questioning here. Even if they answer, answer would be, “We followed our elders without questioning so will you. They did this for a good reason, so do not question them.” 😂
@Kerid Dunk It most definitely is. We don't believe in putting out mouths on other peoples children. If we're related to the child we'll blow strawberries on their bellies and show affection but when it's a strangers child that we just find cute and want to express that we do that whole touching cheek and kissing our fingers to express how cute they are but wouldn't dare put our whole face and mouth on them. Indians are pretty aware of germs. We did invent shampoo (champu) and soap (sabun) sooooo.
It's not for germs. Sometimes others don't like their kids being kissed by others. So people do it this way
@@keriddunk1520 it’s 100% about germs 🦠 & infections. Many of our Hindu/Bharath Traditions we follow are due to hygiene only.
They are pampering your child and showing love towards him as their own son ❤
That's just the way our people admire the kids and bless them :)
It's the way the elderly people express their love towards the kids.. ❤
Gowrie, your explanation is the best.
It's a Indian way to express love towards child and gave him warm love.
It means adorable. Admirable. Cherish able. Precious . Pampering . Fondling.
A child is soft and cute, and indians lightly pinch the cheek to show love and communicate that you are warming their heart.
Its a form of displaying affection. Indians have natural affection towards kids(their own as well as other's)
And calfs 🐮

It means your kid is so cute that they don’t want any bad eye to fall on him when they express their love towards him .
@Leena Jose
"It means your kid [...] love towards him"
========================
'Bad eye', 'evil eye' is nothing but superstition.
@@yevodee4024 kudos to u
@@yevodee4024 no its not. According to multiple religions and beliefs it is true. We also wear “kajol” when we are babies to avoid the evil eye. It is a true thing and many people believe it, so no need to force your belief onto others.
@Jerry Louis with The Thickness
"yeah but whether it's superstition or not is completely irrelevant. No one's talking about the scientific legitimacy of it 😂"
================
Apparently you haven't come across Hindu Tan-Tanaatanis (AND people of other religions also) trying to show their superstitious beliefs a being 'scientific'.
@@farhanayasminakhtar4346
"no its not. According to multiple religions and beliefs it is true [...] so no need to force your belief onto others."
============================
I am not forcing my beliefs on to others... that is something that religious people do.
I am merely pointing to the FACT that 'bad eye', 'evil eye' is a SUPERSTITION.
Your drawing upon religions shows where you stand with your SUPERSTITIONS.
I am not expecting you to accept the FACT, because you have every right to keep misleading yourself (as long as you do not mislead others).
Its an Indian way of expressing heartiest love and blessings ❤😊
Indians are humble, it's about abundance of love we show to children's.
It’s a kiss on the cheek for baby’s cuteness without actually having a stranger coming up and putting their grimey lips on the baby.
It is hygenic way for kissing and showing love ...
Why couldn't these lovely parents figure it out themselves ? It is so clearly a kiss, one step closer than a 'flying' or a 'softly blown' kiss from one's palm. I think they asked this question just to elicit more likes and responses from viewers.
@@sandeep.sharma. In their countries its frowned upon if you walk over to random child just to show affection in any way… its just matter of different cultures… here it’s pretty normal
@Utkarsh Pandey ha ha. i understand that. i just wanted to point out that 'naive question' they posted was a clickbait, aimed at getting gullible indian viewers to fall for, and increase channel-viewer bonding. this couple is just seeking digital slaves, by posting human-hooking content.
@@sandeep.sharma. true
It simply means that they adored and loved the baby😊
This means that your kid is so cute and adorable & also shows the love towards child's .This often happens with Indians also
It's symbol of love for the kids
It's the equivalent of a flying kiss 😘 We're polite enough to not plant a smooch on his cheeks but he's too cute to not kiss at all so that's a good substitute 😂
Can't think of a better explanation😂❤🎉
This is the right answer too👍🏼
Perfect explanation
1st School in British is started in 1811, We INDIAN civilized British to educate Childrens in GURUKULs, which we are doing since 17000 years
Symbol of expressing love and affection towards a kid eventhough you are know or unknown.
Yea they treat them like calf 🇮🇳❤️JAI HINDU U
It is their expression of pure love and blessings for the kid❤❤❤❤
Our cheek part is sensitive to josh , appreciation and love to other beings
It's shows they find the kid adorable and they show love for kids...that's it pure love
That means, they are kissing your child's cheeks, without directly kissing them with their lips. It is a hygienic way of showing their love and saying - "oh, how cute he is!!".
It is their way of admiring your child and complementing you 😊.
That is the symbol of showing unconditional love on them.. ❤
It's purely love and respect.. being a country spiritually deep rooted with love and compassion for all living being of the world❤
It's an indirect kiss on his cheek. They're very loving people
😂. What a delusional person you are
In Indian it's a polite way of expressing the love for an adorable child and along with blessings.
Yes 👍
Its a way of showing Love and affection towards a child in INDIA ❤❤
It's a sign of affection so as not to spread any germs. I had that done to me as a child and now I do the same to babies, kids and puppies! ❤🥰🇮🇳
Its like a virtual kiss. Its like not crossing the boundaries but showing the love.
Mom , dad or mainly our grandparents do that to us when we were kids.. also at a very young age like new born or below 1,1.5 yr everyone is restricted to go and kiss the kid for hygiene as well as rashes issues so they use this gesture to show their love grabbing the cheek with soft hands....
Ahh explained perfectly 🖤 thank you ☺️
This is the real reason... hygiene and some parents might not like strangers kissing their baby...so it's a gesture of affection or liking
@@parttimetravellingfamily also in some part it is also a way of blessing..
Yes, this is the real reason, and I do it to and so did my parents and all the elders in my family
My grandma used to kiss my hands too. That's our way of expressing love and elders do give blessing while doing so.
It is a symbol of love❤ that is given to your child by them.
Indians show their love in this way. And kids r same for everyone❤
In a way, it's just an emotion to show how much they love and adore the child without being up, close and personal and thus, stopping the transfer of germs, bacteria and infections to the child (if you were to actually kiss/peck the child on the cheek directly, that is).
It's Indian way of showing emotions without trespassing the personal boundaries ☺️
It’s gesture to bless and love the pure soul of kid without being making kid uncomfortable
They show there love and affection towards someone by doing this ❤
It’s an Indian way to express love compassion for kids, I’m not even kid now but my parents still does this to me ❤
Indians adore kids a lot. ❤
Symbol of affection towards the kid.
Its Indian kiss to express love and affection to unkown chid 😊😍🥰
It's an indirect kiss😅
🖤
In India our elderly people shows their pure love towards younger specially toddlers ☺
By giving them free co du cake 🎂😊
It's a blessfull love for the child .....an very kindful way of handling a child or any person they think a most innocent 😇😇😊
I am an Indian so I do know why people do this..... the most reason is people give blessings to their children the way they did to your child ,and it is a kind of gesture to show your love for the newborn and wish him a healthy and happy life...
True.. 🙏
Well what??? Blessings haha. Please don't make everything spiritual
@@enfreezeIt's a gesture of Love, Care & Blessings.. Someone else's love and blessings don't need your validation..

@@liloistheendiahater All hail gau-mata🐮🐂
Just a way of admiring the child's cuteness with a gentle touch ,we Indians !
This gesture is to show love and blessings
Act of love and cuteness of the child and bless the child.
It's hard to describe... In one word it's pure luv n affection towards the strangers...
My mom came to America first time, we took her to some place that happened to have a lot of tiny kids. She couldn’t control herself and started doing that cheek to kiss thingy, we tried to tell her that may not be ok here, but she still went around, did an air-pinch of the cheeks and kissed every kid there. Fortunately people saw her innocence and delight and didn’t mind it at all.
Indians take the kid's cuteness and show their affections towards his parents 😊
They show her love like this way
Indian loves child.. If we saw any child we Express love like this way.. This is the hygienic way to love child by Indian Culture ❤
It's a gesture of affection. It is also better than to get too close to the child and make it uncomfortable. It's like a flying kiss😊
That’s Indian way of showing lots of love for the kids as their cheeks are soft and delicate so it’s a way to be delicate with them but not to hurt them.
Actually it is a blessing for kids, since we believe that if we pass happy smile to one person or especially kid, they feel happy and that happyness just goes or transfer to other person.
In India we call it as Nazar nikalidi.
It doesn't mean anything except love.
An affectionate gesture
Its a kind of way to express our love towards childrens, their smile cuteness... ❤
Face is the index of mind. Child's mind is pure and full of joy and happiness. Indians touch and kiss is the expression of love and blessings.
We just can’t resist if we see small kids, we just pamper them. Kids needs to be pampered until certain age. It’s a gentle kiss.
Even at 30 yrs too
It's a blessing, we indian do that. We believe touch is very important to show your emotions. Elders bless like this to kids like that
That is the love and affection towards kid and blessings
They're showing love and blessings❤
its a way of showing love towards the person we adore but also respecting the boundaries at the same time if we are not related to each other in any way. Also no one can resist babies soft cheeks so its an innocent way of feeling his warmth out of pure love. Mostly our elders do that like our granparents :D.
It's a way of expressing love without spreading any disease if any and also saying they are so cute and adorable
This is just a Indian way of showing love and embrace good luck to kids or loved ones.
It is a sign of blessing in India.
It’s like how western ppl blow a flying kiss. It’s just a sign of adoring a kid or even an adult- definitely a loving gesture
Its a kind of love & gesture of affection towards kids in India.
Indians do it as an expression of utter love for the child. Children are seen as innocent and precious and people value this in our culture.
Yea it's a blessing for the baby and his well healthy life..... ❤️❤️❤️... Wellcome to India guys ❣️❣️
with this gesture, we as Indians gave Blessing & express love to our juniors
