The Indian city of dreams, Mumbai, is renowned for its energy. There is space for everyone in this city, despite the fact that every location is congested. It is a city whose hustle culture exalts its unwavering outlook even under the most dire circumstances.
A recent video of a long queue of people waiting patiently to hire an autorickshaw nicely captures the spirit of Mumbai.
A video of this moment was shared on Twitter by the handle @Madan_Chikna with a caption that reads, "The Auto Rickshaw queue in Dombivli during evening peak hours showcases people's remarkable patience."

The video has received nearly 1 million views from social media users.
The comments area of the video received a variety of responses from social media users.
"It's the helplessness and lack of alternatives, and for whatever's sake, don't ever call it Mumbai Spirit. I live in Mumbai, and I don't have a clue how people like to be cheek to cheek with stinking garbage, chocked roads, insufficient infrastructure, and too many cars," commented a user.
"I seriously feel pity and am also surprised at the way people live there: 3-4 hours on the road per day; what would they earn and achieve? Sweating heavily, no quality of life, living in very small houses," wrote another user.
"I lived in Mumbai for around three years, but I couldn't withstand this mad rush. Somehow, after fighting my company for 3 months, I got transferred to Bangalore. I'm thankful to God, and I don't complain about Bangalore traffic because I have seen worse in Mumbai," commented a third user.
