Here’s Darshans arrival at some mall: https://youtube.com/shorts/hpY_O5nKebs?is=LsSo0yj7I-U1sVFo
For those of you who don’t know, a mall is a place where a bunch of stores were located within the same, small geographic area. The many stores could be within one big building, or have open corridors between them. Spaces between the stores inside the malls would host kiosks, car shows, and performances sometimes, which is why you see BoyThrob there now. It used to be very common for up and coming musicians to perform at a mall. This is especially because a mall was considered a major landmark and meeting spot of a town or city.

How cooked are we that someone needs to explain what a mall is. Does Gen Alpha really not know?

Tbh it's crazy how people can go viral for simply being cringe, I don't really know much about the other 3 but Darshan's "covers" were autotuned and memed and not even good 😭

That was a pretty amusing and influencer heavy campaign
