Hundreds of vehicles get stuck in massive traffic jam in Gurgaon, netizens compare it to Bengaluru
A video of a traffic-choked road in Gurgaon has caught the Internet's attention, triggering widespread reactions. The footage showcases the daily ordeal of commuters stuck in heavy traffic during rush hours, a sight that stunned many users. However, some users, in the comments, shared that they have grown used to it. The now-viral video, reportedly filmed near Cyber Hub in Gurgaon's Sector 24, shows hundreds of vehicles crawling along a busy highway, barely moving forward. The footage has racked up over half a million views, along with thousands of likes and comments across social media. Sharing the video, an Instagram handle @nomadic_ankit_ wrote, 'Ab fark nahi padta (It doesn't bother anymore)' with 'Ab toh aadat see hai mujhko aise jeene ki,' playing in the background, a line from a popular Bollywood song that loosely translates to, 'Now I've gotten used to living like this.' Watch the viral video here: A post shared by Ankit Tiwari (@nomadic_ankit_) While many viewers were shocked by the extent of the congestion, others shared hilarious reactions. 'Problem is people made this norm. No one's complaining to the government,' a user wrote. 'Most of the people don't have driving sense….and create chaos,' another user commented. 'Why is it not mandatory for organizations having more than say 200 employees to have atleast one bus service,' a third user reacted. 'What Gurgaon needs is, a metro that connects huda to igi and a bridge that takes people coming from Gurgaon to expressway directly without cybercity traffic. That bottleneck/ curve is a nightmare,' a fourth user said. 'So true, the condition is very bad here. Giving a tough competition to Bangalore,' another user chimed in. Recently, heavy rainfall in Gurgaon severely affected the city's road infrastructure, leaving several major routes damaged. Among the worst-affected are two key roads managed by the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA), which developed deep potholes and visible cracks after the downpour, the reports said.

Social media sensation Uorfi Javed, famous for her bold and unapologetic fashion choices, is once again making waves online. An old video of The Traitors winner recently surfaced online, showing her confidently defending her outfit against a man's criticism at the airport. The video also caught Priyanka Chopra's attention, known for her unabashed take on feminism and gender equality. The clip, originally from 2023, had Uorfi at the Mumbai airport wearing a green backless dress. As she walked out of the airport gate, a man confronted her about her attire. In the video, he is heard saying, ' Allowed nahi hai aisa kapda India mein. India ka naam kharaab kar rahe ho (These kinds of clothes are not allowed in India. You are tarnishing the country's name)." To this, Uorfi firmly replied: ' Aapke baap ka kuch jaa raha hai kya? Nahi jaa raha hai na aapke baap ka? Jao apna kaam karo (Is it costing your father anything? No, right? So go mind your own business)." When the man persisted, she snapped back saying, ' Teri beti hun? Ja na apna kaam kar (Am I your daughter? Go mind your own business)." The video has been widely shared once more, with many applauding Uorfi for her fearless response and confidence in her fashion choices. On Instagram, one account sharing the clip even got a like from actor Priyanka Chopra. Watch the video here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bollywood Society (@bollywoodsocietyy) Uorfi Javed was one of the first ones to be voted out of Bigg Boss OTT. The actor-model took the popularity in her stride and became a pap sensation for her outfits. However, it came with brickbats since she was often brutally trolled. 'Maybe what they say is right- maybe I am not good enough to be a woman, maybe I am a stain on society, maybe I am a bad example for the younger generation. In the language of trolls, as they say it, maybe I am a s**t. I can't quit and even if I do, what's happened is always there on the internet. Kya mai itni buri hoon? (Am I so bad?) Maybe no one will accept me, no family will accept me," she once told Ranveer Allahabadia during his podcast. Cut to today: Uorfi Javed continues to be sensation for her fashion outings, interviews, social media posts and participation on reality shows.
