The 2025 Oscars brought an unexpected moment of humor when first-time host Conan O’Brien greeted Indian audiences in Hindi, leaving viewers both amused and surprised. Amid his signature self-deprecating monologue, Conan paused to say, “Namaskar. Nashte ke saath Oscar kar rahe hai aap log” (Greetings to the people of India, It’s morning there, so I hope your breakfast with Oscars).
The spontaneous gesture quickly grabbed the attention of social media users, sparking a mix of appreciation and playful critiques. One Twitter user joked, “Conan O’Brien deserves an Oscar for best attempt at a foreign language! Good job, though the Hindi was definitely Hinding!” Another user humorously added, “Good attempt, but frankly, Conan totally butchered the Hindi greeting! #Oscars #Oscars2025.”
The lighthearted moment not only showcased Conan’s knack for humor but also connected the Oscars to a global audience in an unexpected and entertaining way.
