Pedro Pascal and Nicolas Cage Meme

It’s one of the most popular reels circulating among Indians today, and for good reason. This delightful bit of humour tells the story of Nicholas Cage riding shotgun as Pedro Pascal drives down the California coast blaring Cass Elliot’s cheerful 70s hit “Make Your Own Kind Of Music.” As the music beats ever louder, Cage turns to glare menacingly at Pascal, who is giggling like a schoolboy just having fun. This meme perfectly captures the mix of emotions we can all relate to—the excitement of an adventure tempered by the uncertainty of the unknown.

Catch My face

To overcome the boredom and weariness of sitting home more often as we are still limiting social gatherings, Instagram sprung up with a hilarious and fun way to stay entertained.

The core aim is to blink your eyes and lock each moving part in its correct position and complete your face. This has become one of the most trending reels in India in August.
