Even the slightest of rain can lead to waterlogging in Indian cities. Something similar was witnessed in Hyderabad as heavy showers pummelled the southern city during the ongoing monsoon season.

However, amid the unpleasant sight of flooded streets, a video of floating biryani pots is going viral on Twitter.

The video shows two biryani degs (pots), one stacked atop the other, floating across a waterlogged street. In the background, one can see a restaurant named ‘Adiba Hotel’ and it seems that the pots floated out from the food joint.

The video of the floating biryani pots was shared on social media by a Twitter user who goes by the name Ibn Crowley (@IbnFaraybi). While sharing the 13-second video, the Twitter user wrote: “Somebody is going to be unhappy for not getting his biryani order. #Hyderabad #HyderabadRains.”

The original tweet has so far been viewed over 1.1 million times. While commenting on the video, a Twitter user wrote: “Hope the owners are checking if Elon Musk is interested in the auto-piloted biryani mechanism.” While another one remarked, “A strong independent biryani that needs no man.”

Amid humorous takes on the video, some people also pointed out the dire state of infrastructure in India’s cities. Echoing this sentiment, a Twitter user commented: “This is the lifestyle of common man in India and Pakistan, both the countries spending billions on arms and ammunition are unable to give comfortable and decent infrastructure to their people.”
