Be it for nerve-wracking traffic jams or the difficulty of house-hunting, Bengaluru is almost always in the headlines. However, a video that is swiftly gaining traction online showed a traffic jam in the city that was not that ordinary. The clip showed several Ferraris stuck in a jam on a busy street and it has gone viral online. Even Ashneer Grover reacted to it.
The now-viral video was shared on Instagram by a user named GM Pavan. The clip featured a row of the Italian high-end sports cars stuck in a massive traffic jam in Bengaluru.
“Ferraris take down Bengaluru,” the caption of the post read.
Apart from clocking in close to five million views, the post also attracted an array of comments from Instagram users. While some people were amused, others shared their frustration about the notorious traffic in the city.
“Imagine spending 6 crores just to be stuck in traffic with the rest of Bangalore,” a user wrote. Another user commented, “A normal day in Mumbai.”
“Dream sight of every automobile enthusiast,” a third user remarked. “It's just a common day in Bangalore,” a fourth user added.
The video also caught the attention of former Shark Tank India judge Ashneer Grover. The former co-founder of Bharatpe was in the city with his wife. An Instagram Story shared by Madhuri Jain Grover showed that the couple received a warm welcome at The Oberoi. The hotel staff had welcomed them with dessert that had Rs 2,000 notes and some dollar bills with Grover's face printed on them.
“More like Bengaluru takes down Ferrari! I feel the pain of having so many horses and being stuck in traffic,” he wrote.
Meanwhile, a few people in the comments section claimed that the jam was at Church Street.
