As the eggs cook, the vendor prepares fresh tomatoes, onions, green chilies, and cilantro, incorporating them into the pan. Once the liquid has evaporated, he serves the distinctive dish, named 'orange anda bhurji,' on a traditional leaf plate.

This unconventional recipe elicited a variety of reactions from viewers. Instagram users quickly took to the comments section to share their opinions on the unusual combination of eggs and a soft drink.

One user humorously remarked, “Well, this is one way to make breakfast and a drink at the same time.” Meanwhile, another commenter expressed their bewilderment, stating, “I thought I’d seen everything until today. Fanta with eggs? Seriously?!”

For some viewers, the combination was deemed too bizarre. One commenter stated, “I think I’m going to stick with regular anda bhurji, thank you very much.”

A user also said, "No amount of money can convince me to eat that."

Another user commented, “This is what happens when you run out of oil and only have Fanta in the fridge.”
