So i am from a country where diy e juice is not that common. And I am
finding it difficult to find vg and pg. Can i use any off the shelf (or
from a chemist store) food safe vg pg?

No you cannot. It must be certified with proper pharmaceutical grading.

search for pharmaceutical grading certification when you're shopping for vg and pg. there are some abbreviations you might encounter this way, so check out the Wikipedia entry called Pharmacopoeia. (for example in my country i need to make sure it's "Ph.Hg." = "Magyar gyógyszerkönyv" = Hungarian Pharmacopoeia.) other gradings are not good enough.

chemist store might be a good resource, i often buy from a shop just like that - however, always stick with the highest quality stuff!

in addition, make sure that the container is flawless, there must not be any kind of contamination. double check that no other substances had been kept in the same bottle before etc. (i've encountered some sketchy shops before and it's not a wise idea to inhale something of unknown origin.)
