In the bustling urban landscape of Bengaluru, where navigating through traffic jams is an everyday challenge, a local business owner recently found himself trapped in a harrowing situation.
The relentless gridlock threatened to sabotage his plans as he raced against the clock to catch a crucial flight.
Little did he know that this unexpected delay would unfold into a tale of extraordinary encounters.?
Entrepreneur and investor Kunal Bahl was stuck in Bengaluru traffic while he was getting late to reach the airport to take a flight.?
Kunal Bahl's story might just make you a believer in superheroes. While returning from a session at Bengaluru Airport, he found himself ensnared in the city's notorious traffic, a common experience in Bangalore.
Facing a dilemma during the delay, he had to choose between waiting for the traffic to clear or embarking on a 2.5-kilometre journey, equivalent to a 22-minute walk, with the flight scheduled to depart in just 40 minutes. All of this while dressed in uncomfortable formal shoes and a suit.
In a LinkedIn post, Kunal Bahl shared the unexpected turn of events that unfolded when he decided to walk towards the airport amidst the traffic delay. However, his plans took an unforeseen twist.
As he started walking, a significant convoy was moving on the same road. A vigilant policeman intervened, preventing him from proceeding due to security concerns related to the convoy. Faced with limited time to catch his flight, Kunal presented the officer with two options: either allow him to continue walking immediately or offer a ride in the policeman's squad car after the convoy passed.
Acknowledging the urgency, the officer nodded and advised Kunal to wait until the convoy had cleared. True to his word, the policeman honoured the agreement, though Kunal reached the airport slightly later than anticipated.
Adding a humorous twist to the tale, Kunal discovered that the flight was delayed when he arrived at the airport just before its scheduled departure.
The post has garnered numerous likes, comments, and shares since being shared on social media.
