In the viral clip, the husband was asking his wife to let go of her mistress, right after which she delivered the now-viral line saying, “Waah Shampy Waah.” This quickly became a famous dialogue, and people started using it sarcastically. The video begins with the lady alleging that the man gave the other woman pregnancy-related medicines, and concludes with her confronting the woman involved in the affair, saying, “Aap kyu darre ho, aap idhar aao, aapka to profession hi ye tha”.
The clip is only a few seconds long, but it is enough to capture viewers’ attention. The fad immediately spread, and influencers across India began creating their own versions of ‘Waah Shampy Waah’ reels. From humorous lip-syncs to hilarious edits, the fad has grabbed Instagram by storm, demonstrating how a brief snippet from an old film can captivate the internet’s attention.
