Roast guide
Roast lines in Hindi, English and Hinglish
Steal these comebacks for your group chat. Every line here sticks to habits — being late, bad cooking, worse playlists — so the banter stays funny instead of mean.
The five rules of friendly roasting
- •Roast the habit, never the person — laziness and late replies are fair game, looks and health are not.
- •Match the heat to the friendship. Start mild; savage is for people who roast you back.
- •Never touch body, weight, money, health, family, religion, gender or relationships.
- •If the other person stops laughing, the joke is over. Apologise, don't escalate.
- •Keep it situational: the group chat's inside jokes are always funnier than an insult.

Roasting questions, answered
- What is a good roast line?
- A good roast exaggerates something harmless your friend actually does — arriving late, never replying, burning toast — so everyone including the target can laugh at it.
- How do you roast someone without hurting them?
- Stay on behaviour instead of identity, keep it short, and let the other person roast you back. Avoid appearance, weight, health, money, family and relationships entirely.
- What are Hinglish roasts?
- Hinglish roasts mix Hindi and English in one line, the way Indian group chats speak. They land well because the punchline usually switches language.
