In the internet era, approaching and meeting people has become easier on online dating apps than in real life. To stay ahead of the curve, people have tried to be creative to stand out from the crowd. For instance, a doctor who was looking for a girlfriend posted a hilarious PPT, complete with his ‘dating qualifications’ as well as ‘reviews’ from exes. And Desi people, being jugaadu they are, even started using these dating apps to build a professional network in addition to finding love.
According to screenshots posted by a Twitter user, two Indians apparently started ‘dating’ after striking a conversation in the comments section of Nicki Minaj’s ‘Anaconda’ music video on YouTube.

This is the conversation that went down between the two accounts named Raja Verma and Rosie Pestel:-
The woman asks the guy if he has a girlfriend, and then seems to make the first move saying that since they’ve messaged thrice, the should start dating. She also adds that she’s looking for a light-skinned partner and wants her children “to have light skin”.
The man responds that he’s from Uttar Pradesh. He also asks whether Rosie is a boy or a girl, to which she confirms that she’s female. Raja immediately sends his number in the next comment, to which she replies asking his height and weight. He mentions it as “5.10 inches 70 kg”.
Tweeple had some hilarious reactions to the scene that panned out, even calling Nicki Minaj the “wing-woman” to their romance:-

Since both the accounts don’t have a profile picture, people hinted at the possibility of it being a catfishing attempt.
