The mess lady Gayatri Sharma from The Gayu Kitchen vanishes from social media, was it a fallout with the hostel?

If you have been obsessed with “mere pyare pyare rice” and those wholesome hostel thalis that felt like a warm food hug through your phone screen, bad news. Gayatri Sharma, the heart and soul behind The Gayu Kitchen, has suddenly deleted her Instagram account, leaving fans in full-blown panic mode.

The Gayu Kitchen Instagram account deleted

Once the internet’s most adored mess wali didi with over 2.5 lakh Instagram followers, Gayatri had first taken her account private—sparking immediate concern from her ever-loyal audience. And now? A search for @thegayukitchen shows no results. Poof. Gone. As if the wholesome food content queen never existed.

To make things even more cryptic, all her hostel mess YouTube Shorts have vanished too. Her YouTube channel, with over 4.2 lakh subscribers, still exists, but the last upload was dated April 27. Since then? Pin drop silence.

So, what exactly happened?

Fans are flooding the comment sections of her remaining videos, and speculation is sizzling hotter than her famous rajma chawal. The most popular theory? A fallout with the hostel authorities where she runs the mess. Some suspect Gayatri’s viral fame may not have sat well with the administration. But as of now, no official word has come from the hostel, and Hindustan Times could not independently verify the claims.

The Gayu Kitchen’s last Instagram post

Gayatri’s last Insta post before going private was business as usual, another charming glimpse into the day’s hostel menu, delivered in her signature tone that made lentils sound like luxury. No signs of stress, no hint of drama. Just Gayatri doing what she does best, serving soul food with soul.

Who is Gayatri Sharma from The Gayu Kitchen?

For those unfamiliar with her rise: Gayatri Sharma’s journey is the stuff of internet legend. An orphan raised in SOS Children’s Village, she worked odd jobs from security guard to retail assistant, earning as little as ?12 an hour. But when she took over a hostel mess run by an NGO, her storytelling and warmth turned dal-roti into daily content gold.

Gayatri turned a humble mess into a digital haven for food lovers. So naturally, her sudden disappearance feels like the internet just lost its lunchroom bestie.

Where is she now? Only Gayu, and maybe her pyare pyare rice, know.
