Indian man finds a piece of home in London traffic as auto rickshaw cruises through
India Today
An Indian man in London spotted an auto rickshaw on one of the roads in the city, and shared it in a now-viral video on social media.
An Indian man living in the UK stumbled upon a sight that felt oddly familiar, an auto-rickshaw driving through which felt like a small piece of home casually cruising through London traffic.
Jay Dholakiya, who is currently living in London, shared the video on his Instagram page showing what looked like a classic auto rickshaw making its way down a busy UK road, blending into traffic in a way that still felt completely out of place.
In the clip, the camera filmed a typical London street, with cars lined up in both lanes, trees on either side, and road signs in the distance. But right in the middle of it all, a black-and-yellow auto rickshaw appeared, moving steadily along with the flow of vehicles.
The contrast was immediate. Surrounded by standard UK cars, the rickshaw stood out not just for how it looked, but for what it represented. For a moment, the scene felt like it belonged somewhere else entirely, which was less of London, more of Delhi or Mumbai.
The overlay on the video read, “London turns into Delhi when you see a rickshaw on the road,” capturing exactly what the moment feels like.
