New Delhi: Many of us have grown up seeing the face of a little girl on the packet of Parle-G biscuits. That is why it came as a surprise when internet users saw a post featuring an influencer’s face on the cover of the biscuits packet. The amusing post was in response to content creator Zervaan J Bunshah’s viral video where he put forth a hilarious question to his followers. “If you meet the owner of Parle, do you call him Parle sir, Mr. Parle, or Parle G?” he asked in a video. In the clip,  Bunshan is seen sitting in a car with a confused look on his face while the catchy ‘Ae Jee Oo Jee’ track from Anil Kapoor’s movie ‘Ram Lakhan’ plays in the background.

The video, shared three days back, went viral.

The video also caught the attention of Parle-G and the biscuit manufacturer joined in the fun with a witty comment. The official Parle-G account commented, “Bunshah ji, you can call us the OG.”

Later, Parle-G also featured a smiling image of Mr Bunshah on the biscuit wrapper instead of the iconic girl. “While you figure out what to call the owner of Parle-G, you can call us your favorite biscuit to enjoy with a cup of chai. What say @bunshah ji,” read the caption.
