When asked to consider the different journeys I took over my summer in Bengaluru, a city in India, I realised that no matter where I was trying to go, my journey always started with me trying to get a rickshaw (colloquially called an auto).

With rickshaws being one of the most popular and convenient modes of transport across the city, it constantly feels like the entirety of Bengaluru’s 14 million people are trying to get one.

This is a struggle all Bengalurians can relate to, and this video is a humourous take on a struggle that plagues us daily.
