An individual posted, “The New Bahubali in town.” Another added, “Deadlift final boss.” A third expressed, “Kindly award more energy and power to owners of 4/6/8 wheelers. Thus, they could reach home!” A fourth wrote, “That time isn't far when office commuters would also have to do the same.”

Rainfall caused severe traffic congestion across Delhi and NCR, especially in Gurgaon, where commuters were stuck on the roads for six to eight hours. The incident sparked severe concerns online, prompting many to blame the city's infrastructure.

Many people took to social media to discuss their frustrations with Gurugram's "nightmarish" traffic. A video that went viral also showed a never-ending row of cars halted across the lanes of key highways.
