The top Instagram Reel trends of October 2023, from Ganji Chudail to 'so beautiful, so elegant'
The month of October is drawing to a close, and we're back with a rundown of the top Instagram reel trends for this month.
Desi Instagram has been buzzing with activity this month, and there's plenty to catch up on. Let's take a look:
1. Ganji ChudailΒ
Let's kick things off with the trend that has been dominating Instagram for a few months now and has finally made its way onto our list. If you're not familiar with 'Ganji Chudail' (Bald Devil), it's essentially an Indian eerie version of Cocomelon. Why? Originally geared towards young toddlers, it has now found a fanbase among young adults like myself.
The reels featuring a bald, green devil follow a storyline that appeals to kids and makes little sense.

Nevertheless, it has garnered immense popularity among viewers, with everyone from brands promoting their products to live performances giving credit to this reel trend.
2. Khalasi
Following the success of 'Passoori,' the latest song 'Khalasi' from Coke Studio India has taken the town by storm.
Not only is the song trending all over Instagram, but it has also become a sensation during the holy festival of Navratra, spawning approximately 1.3 million reels on the platform.
3. The Yearbook photos
This trend incorporated AI and took everyone on a nostalgic trip down memory lane to their high school days. To join in on the trend, use an AI or a tool like Pica to superimpose your face onto a high school student wearing classic high school attire.
4. 'So Beautiful So Elegant'
The award for the best salesperson of the year goes to Jasmeen Kaur. If you're wondering who she is, let me jog your memory.
"So beautiful, so elegant, just looking like a wow." Does that ring a bell?
This trend has taken Instagram by storm, initiated by a woman who runs a designer boutique and sells her designer kurtis in the most witty and humorous ways. She even gives unique names to her various colorus, such as 'Mouse Colour,' 'Laddoo Peela Colour,' and more, and it's all over everyone's Instagram feeds.
The audio was even used by Deepika Padukone to make a reel! Check it out here:Β

5. She Don't KnowΒ
Speaking of offbeat humor, if you've come across a young man in a black shirt and snug pants grooving to the lyrics of "Ha Din Vich Tere Liye Time Kad K" (I will take out time for you), welcome to the club.
The song has not only gone viral but has also become a favorite among various content creators and influencers. Check out the video:Β
