Rudra Chitte Teaches Amitabh Bachchan Aura Framing Trend Steps

If you’re a millennial reading this and wondering what the term aura means, let us help you. For Gen Z and Alpha, the term aura is something that can’t be exactly defined, but it’s not a material thing. Having an aura is like having a “cool factor.” For example, if someone has an aura, they are effortlessly cool and carry social status without even trying. Recently, the “aura farming” trend went viral thanks to a video of 11-year-old Rayyan Arkan Dikham from Indonesia. In the video, he wears sunglasses and balances himself on the tip of a long racing boat, an act that captured everyone’s attention online.

When Rudra entered the KBC17 set, he tried the aura farming step, which Big B wanted to know more about. While Rudra didn’t completely succeed in explaining aura farming to Big B, he made sure to demonstrate some of the steps from the viral trend. Rudra added that even if Big B doesn’t grasp the hand gestures, he is, anyway, the ultimate aura farmer.
