X user Dr Atharv Dawar, while travelling in Bengaluru, found himself in a heated argument with a cab driver after requesting the air conditioner be turned on. Dawar documented the entire episode on his phone and later shared it on social media, sparking widespread discussion.

In his post, Dawar detailed the series of events leading up to the confrontation. Initially hesitant to enter the cab due to its unclean condition and non-functional AC, he eventually boarded the vehicle. Once the journey commenced, he asked the driver to switch on the AC. This simple request led to a dispute.

Dawar explained that the driver, who initially spoke to him in Hindi, suddenly started behaving rudely. He expressed his frustration, noting, "It's not about language here, it's about an arrogant and irresponsible person using the Kannada language as a smokescreen to continue scamming gullible people who travel to Bengaluru for work."

As the video went viral, it drew mixed reactions. Some supported Dawar's stance on the importance of decent service, while others emphasised the need for mutual respect and understanding between passengers and drivers, regardless of language differences.
