Last week, severe waterlogging in the wake of incessant rain threw parts of Mumbai out of gear.
While even stepping out of home turned out to be a perilous task for many, a food delivery agent came up with a novel solution to perform his job. His alternative for a vehicle was a horse and his act has left netizens surprised.
A clip shared by Youtube channel Just A Vibe shows the man sitting on top of a horse. He places the food delivery bag on his back and rides the horse. In the middle of other moving vehicles, the horse crosses the road and moves ahead. The clip is seemingly captured from a vehicle amid light rain.
“Swiggy delivery boy on horse Never seen like this before… Mumbai things || Swiggy delivery on Horse,”read the Youtube description.
