Are your kitchen drawers overflowing with leftover ketchup packets and fast-food seasonings? Whether you have a handful or a growing stash, you’re not alone. In a viral Instagram video, Sarthak Sachdeva, a YouTuber, embarked on a mission to collect as many free ketchup sachets as he could from various fast-food spots at a mall in Pune, making the most of every opportunity.
Armed with a glass jar, Sachdeva began his “ketchup quest” at a McDonald’s outlet. After a few visits, he started feeling a bit self-conscious. In the video, he admitted that saying, “Bhai McDonald’s mein aur sauce maangne mein sharam aa rahi hai (I am feeling ashamed to ask for more sauce from McDonald’s.)”
However, undeterred, he continued to a KFC outlet, where he added another 25 packets to his collection. Since the jar looked half-empty, he made one final stop at a Pizza Hut outlet, where he struck gold: bottled ketchup. Sachdeva poured five bottles straight into his jar, finally amassing a whopping 2.5 liters of ketchup by the end of his mission.
The video, captioned “aha tamatar bade mazedaar,” has since gone viral.

The video garnered over 10 million views and sparked a variety of reactions in the comments.
One user wrote, “Hacker nahi bhai to sauc’er’ hai (You’re not a hacker, brother, you are a sauc’er.)” Another individual wrote, “Bro has special reservation in hell.” A third person commented, “Bhai Delhi mein toh Rs. 1 per sachet lete hai (along with a sad face emoji).”
