Bengaluru is known for its unique culture and allure that keeps inviting people, especially from the IT sector, to work there. A user on X (formerly Twitter) has shared the story of a former Google employee who is working as a driver with Uber Moto. The user, Raghav Dua, posted a video of himself riding with the Uber Moto driver and said he moved from Hyderabad to Bengaluru to "explore the city". The post, shared on Sunday, has been viewed more than 63,000 times.
"My Uber Moto driver is ex-google, moved to Bangalore 20 days ago from Hyderabad. He is just doing this to explore the city it seems," Mr Dua said in the post.
Other users were impressed by the post and shared their own experience in Bengaluru.
"That's truly fascinating! I hope you had an interesting conversation during your ride," commented one user. "Yes I've also experienced this personally," said another.
Many users called it another 'Peak Bengaluru' moment, a term that is associated with the attention-grabbing incidents happening in the IT hub of India.
Earlier this month, a video showed a woman working on her laptop while riding a pillion on a bike through the congested streets of Bengaluru.
The video was posted on Reddit and it soon gained traction online.
The story of an autorickshaw driver in Bengaluru also became a hit on social media a few weeks ago. Manasvi Saxena, co-founder at MoMoney, shared how his Uber driver worked in both the UPI app Juspay and the auto app Namma Yatri, which is owned by the payment app.
"My Uber auto driver tonight was the Chief Growth Officer at Juspay , doing user research for Namma Yatri. If this isn't peak Bengaluru then what is," the user said.
