Rs 19 lakh to rent a flat? Canadian in Bengaluru shocked by deposit demand, says he'd rather buy Thar; Netizens react with jokes and advice

A Canadian citizen living in India has sparked a fun and furious online debate after posting about the sky-high rental deposit demanded for a flat in Bengaluru. Caleb Friesen took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to share a listing for a 3BHK flat in Diamond District, Domlur, and it's not the rent that stunned people, it was the Rs 19.25 lakh deposit. The monthly rent was already a hefty Rs 1.75 lakh, but the security deposit left people gobsmacked. Caleb wrote: by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Join new Free to Play WWII MMO War Thunder War Thunder Play Now Undo 'Rs 19 lakh for security deposit! Absolutely bonkers what landlords are expecting these days. I could literally buy a new Mahindra Thar for less than this deposit. Anyone know of a place in/around Indiranagar with 2–3 months deposit only? Rent price range Rs 80,000 to 1 lakh.' X users react: Jokes, advice, and real estate realities The post went viral, quickly gaining over 18,000 views and opening the floodgates to all kinds of responses. Live Events One user joked, 'Don't buy a Thar. That's for special folks only,' while another wrote, 'Negotiable rent and non-negotiable deposit! Classic Bengaluru.' Some came forward with solutions too. A fellow resident offered, 'Looking for a flatmate in my 2BHK, no deposit needed, just feature our startup in your videos.' Another person made a serious point: 'You could buy a flat in Kolkata for that much!' To which Caleb replied, 'Lol, yeah same in Aizawl where I'm currently living. Crazy.' Practical suggestions pour in While some poked fun, others were more practical. One user advised Caleb to try Mahadevapura, a nearby area known for more reasonable rents. Another chimed in, 'Better to meet local brokers, online searches don't always show the real options.' A common theme was disbelief. 'Damn! That's too huge,' one user wrote, summing up the general mood.

Elon Musk Says First Tesla Drove Itself From Factory to Customer

Tesla Inc. Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk said a Tesla Model Y SUV drove itself from the company's factory near Austin to a customer's home in the company's latest move to showcase its push into autonomous driving. In a post on X, Musk announced the company had made an autonomous delivery of a Tesla Model Y from factory to a customer's home, noting the delivery was made "across town," and included highways. Musk said the delivery did not include anyone in the car and no remote operators were in control of the car. While the post did not include video or images, Musk posted that video of the event would come soon. World's first autonomous delivery of a car! This Tesla drove itself from Gigafactory Texas to its new owner's home ~30min away — crossing parking lots, highways & the city to reach its new owner — Tesla (@Tesla) June 28, 2025 Tesla's head of AI and autopilot, Ashok Elluswamy said the vehicle reached a max speed of 72 miles per hour. The delivery was one day ahead of the date Musk had earlier set for the first autonomous delivery, June 28, which will be his 54th birthday. Tesla's first autonomous delivery highlights Musk's bet that artificial intelligence and robotics represent the future of his electric car company. It comes days after Tesla began its long-awaited robotaxi service on June 22, offering a select group of influencers and investors rides in a small fleet of self-driving Model Y SUVs in a limited area of Austin. Musk previewed both events in a post earlier this month on X, and has said the company plans to eventually have millions of robotaxis on the road in the future. Musk is counting on eventually churning out large numbers of robotaxis and Optimus humanoid robots to underpin the EV company's next chapter. Sales in key markets including North America and Europe remain sluggish and the company has faced a consumer backlash to Musk's role in US President Donald Trump's administration. Multiple executives have also left the company in recent weeks. The hands-free delivery is an extension of a capability Tesla touted in April, when it posted a videoshowing cars moving autonomously from its Texas assembly lines to logistics lots prior to shipping. It's unclear whether autonomous deliveries will become a meaningful part of Tesla's operations. Tesla did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
