      Priya has started to feel like a cartoon character or comedy show character now, past few weeks every time they do something with her she's always trying to turn the task/dish into something Indian related and talk about her family/parents. It's like that's the job she is told to do by the producers (Let's be real, that's almost definitely what's happening here), put an Indian twist and talk about her family every single time she is on camera and in a video.
      As an Indian, It's honestly starting to feel kinda cringe and weird honestly. Like the producers at BA are exploiting Indian food/culture and Priya being Indian for views and diversity points.
