"I love nose pins. I always have. And of late I have had several women come up to me and ask me where I get mine and how seeing someone wear nice unique nose pins makes them want to get one too," Delhi resident Tanzila Anis tells NDTV. She mentions that a couple of days ago, Twitter user @NameFieldmt tweeted about the hashtag. From then on, Ms Anis used the hashtag every time she changed her nose pin.
On October 14, she posted a tweet asking everyone to share their pictures with the hashtag.
People, post your amazing nose studs and rings under the hashtag #NosepinTwitter from now please. Issued in public interest. Please RT.
- Tanzila. (@aaliznat) October 14, 2017
What she didn't anticipate was the tremendous outpouring of response her little message would receive. Twitter shared a deluge of tweets using the hashtag, making it a trending topic today. Actor Chitrangda Singh is among the women who shared their stunning pictures using #NosePinTwitter.

"People started using the hashtag organically and it has brought so much happiness and beauty and color on everyone's timeline. It's amazing," Ms Anis tells NDTV. "Does say something about the rich beauty desi women have," she adds.
And rightly so - just take a look at some of the pictures tweeted with the hashtag.
