In the age of viral food fails, one recent dessert disaster from Mirzapur has taken Instagram by storm, and it has nothing to do with icing typos. A woman named Pragya ordered a cheesecake for Mother’s Day, only to receive something hilariously far from what she expected: a regular cream cake topped with processed cheese slices.
The cheesecake that wasn’t
Sharing her experience in a now-viral Instagram reel captioned “Never try cheesecake in Mirzapur,” Pragya explained, “Bhai, Mirzapur is not for beginners, okay? Absolutely not. I mean, what has happened to me?”
She revealed that she had ordered the cake as a special Mother’s Day treat. However, when she opened the box, she was shocked to find a plain, slightly smashed cake covered in frosting, and bizarrely topped with cheese slices instead of the creamy, baked goodness one would expect in a cheesecake.
“Unhone ye tuta-futa cake bheja, which is definitely not a cheesecake,” she said, pointing at the dessert. “Aur upar cheese slices daal ke cheesecake bana diya!”
‘Startup idea gone wrong’
Instead of being angry, Pragya took the mix-up in stride, adding humor to the situation. “Now I know why people are afraid of Mirzapur,” she joked. “Why didn’t this business idea come to me first? Make a cake for ₹50, put cheese on top, and sell it for ₹800, because obviously, it’s a cheese-cake!”
Her witty remarks and calm reaction quickly made the video go viral, amassing thousands of views and comments within hours of posting.
Internet reacts
The comment section turned into a comedy zone, with users making fun of the mix-up in classic internet style.

One user quipped, “Good thing you didn’t ask for Buffalo wings.”
Another joked, “Thank god you didn’t order a hot dog.”
Someone else added, “Lemon cheesecake mangati toh nimbu nichod ke bhej dete!” (If you had ordered lemon cheesecake, they’d have just squeezed a lemon on it.)
Another witty comment read, “Try ordering Kadhai Paneer next, they might just send raw paneer in a kadhai!”
