AC vs open-air sauna! Kolkata man's hilarious take on Bengaluru weather goes viral

Bengaluru folks have one major thing to rave about: the weather! Let's face it, when the climate is pleasant, everything seems better. Imagine the alternative—sweltering heat and sweat pouring down—definitely not the recipe for a happy day!

A Kolkata local recently visited Bengaluru and his hilarious reaction is now going viral.

Kolkata resident Anurag Das took to X to share his delightful surprise at Bengaluru's weather.?

He posted, "Stepping out of Bengaluru Airport, the air outside is almost as pleasant as AC. In July."

He then humorously compared it to Kolkata's "open-air sauna" that leaves you drenched in sweat within minutes: "Compare it with the open-air sauna that is Kolkata, which leaves you drenched in sweat in minutes."

So impressed was he that he declared, "I'm now willing to do a PhD in Kannada if it means I can stay here forever!"

In the comments, Bengaluru locals had a few things to say.?

One pointed out, "A foreign friend after I picked him up form the B'lore airport a few years back made a very enlightening comment - exit from any international airport is not a true reflection of what's to come after 20 Kms. True for every single airport in the world."

Another added, "1. You dont need Kannada to be in BLR; 2. Too early to decide, you must also cross the Hebbel Flyover traffic and reach your destination; 3. Repeat step 2 at different time slots."

One commenter joked, "You are going to regret it as much as people who marry love at first sight."

Another warned, "The same you is going to crib about the same BLR once you realise it takes 30 mins to finish 1.5 km! One rain and our roads are lakes! If weather is the criteria, why not shift to some hill station!?"

And someone else said, "Welcome to Bengaluru! Your intent to learn Kannada is already a great start!"

What's your opinion on this? Is Bengaluru the best city to settle in among the metro cities?
