The audacity to include a pet dog’s water bowl has landed YouTuber Sourav Joshi in the middle of an online backlash. In a recent family vlog, Sourav asked his wife Avantika Bhatt to drink water from the bowl of their pet dog Oreo.
The incident happened during a game between Sourav and his family. As part of the game, he asked Avantika to drink water from a bowl of Oreos. When she initially refuses, Sourav persuades her to take just one sip instead of drinking more.
He then picked up the bowl and assured her that the water had been changed and was clean. Although Avantika appeared unsure about the task at first, she eventually plucked up the courage.
Sourav also asked the other contestants if he had said anything wrong by challenging him. While the moment may have been intended as a light-hearted part of the game, it didn’t go down well with many viewers who came across the clip afterwards.
The video drew criticism on Reddit, with some users questioning whether the incident was scripted and others expressing concern over the nature of the challenge.
Even though it’s not okay as a joke, she clearly refuses to do this heinous act. INFRAME: New Money Saurav Joshi with Bad Mind.

One user wrote, “Even if it’s scripted, which I totally think and hope it is, the mere thought of making your significant other drink water out of a bowl meant for an animal is so inhumane. It’s not funny; it’s not wow! It’s embarrassing that even an educated woman would agree to do this scripted thing.”
