'Sabka software reset ho gaya': Office prank goes viral after employees realise the ‘prashad’ is actually lemon juice

Office life has a funny way of becoming painfully predictable after a point. Same desk, same chai breaks, same “this meeting could’ve been an email” energy every single day. So naturally, people look for tiny ways to survive the boredom. Some snack constantly, some gossip near the coffee machine, and then there’s always that one office prankster who wakes up every morning and chooses absolute chaos.

And honestly, one viral office video on Instagram is proof that no colleague can ever truly be trusted.

The clip, shared by the Instagram page @teambabyorgano, starts off looking completely innocent. A man casually walks around offering prashad to his coworkers. Nobody suspects a thing because, obviously, who says no to prashad in an Indian office? People politely take a sip without overthinking it.

Big mistake.

Within seconds, the expressions around the office start changing dramatically. What begins as confusion quickly turns into pure betrayal because the so-called prashad is actually straight-up lemon juice. Not sweet. Not diluted. Just aggressive nimbu attack energy.

One colleague freezes mid-sip like his soul temporarily left his body. Another looks personally offended. Someone else almost seems ready to file an HR complaint and throw hands at the same time. The reactions are genuinely funnier because everyone is trying so hard to stay professional while internally processing the sour shock.

The caption on the video perfectly sums up the situation: “Nimbu ka swaad pada sab pe bhari.” And honestly, no lies detected there.

Social media, of course, had the time of its life in the comments section.

One person joked, “How to poison Indians, they don’t refuse.” Another wrote, “Sabka software reset ho gaya,” which honestly feels scientifically accurate after seeing those reactions. Someone else pointed out, “Second guy was ready to throw hands but office ki maryada ne rok liya,” and viewers completely agreed.

Then came the truly chaotic comments.

“Ye pakka last working day wala hoga.”
“How to get blacklisted part 1.”
“Vitamin C from the lord.”
“Third one got permanent trust issues.”

The internet clearly decided this was peak workplace comedy.

What really makes the clip work is how relatable it feels. Every office has these random little moments that somehow become bigger memories than actual work itself. Nobody will remember the Excel sheet from Tuesday, but they will remember the day Rajeev disguised lemon juice as prashad and emotionally damaged an entire department.

And honestly? That’s probably what keeps office life entertaining.
