“Only in Bengaluru,” reads the caption posted along with the video. The clip opens with a text insert flashing across the screen that reads, “Tell me you are in Bengaluru, without telling me you’re in Bengaluru.” Captured from inside a car, the clip shows a woman sitting behind a man on a bike with a laptop in front of her.
