In the world of Indian jugaad, creativity knows no bounds. In a recent viral video, a content creator showed how his Gujarati friend found a hack to manage the high electricity bills in Canada.
The video begins with the creator saying, “Canada desh hai mehnga par hum hai Gujarati. Duniya ko idhar udhar hone denge par budget ko nahi (Canada is expensive, but we are from Gujarat, nothing will affect our budgeting.)”
In the video, he narrates how his friend, another Gujarati, shared concerns about high electricity bills in Canada. The friend then offers the creator a cup of tea and asks him to grab some milk. However, when the creator opens the fridge to grab some milk, he finds it empty. His friend directs him to the balcony. There, the creator makes an amusing discovery—the entire space being used as a refrigerator, with milk cartons and leftovers neatly stored in the open, at -15 degree Celsius.
The creator ends the video saying, “Bhai, every Gujarati is Elon Musk,” admiring his friend’s jugaad, and reiterating that only a Gujarati can think this way.
Watch the viral video:
The video has racked up more than five lakh views. The comments section is filled with hilarious replies from netizens.
One user commented, “Technic sabko mat sikhaa bhai.’ Another user said, “Bro even in Finland we keep everything in our balcony.”
Some users expressed their disapproval. A user commented, “That’s called neighbourhood nuisance. These kind of act attracts wild animals. Some people use garage for same purpose in winter but please don’t make neighbourhood dirty by openly leaving food outside.”
Another Instagram user wrote, “You’ll know better when the raccoons come!”
