In India, the rule is that if you want to call a place beautiful, you instead say that it looks like as if it is not in India. This picture that has been going viral on Twitter is a similar yet not-so-similar tale.
Journalist Alekh on Twitter posted a picture on Wednesday of a Chembur lane drenched in rain during the sunset. He tweeted the picture with the caption, "Chembur is like Mexico in US movies."
Within no time, this picture went viral and many people agreed that indeed it does look beautiful. Many also shared picture from their localities from in and around Mumbai to show how beautiful it looks.
Also, no tweet is ever complete without memes and puns. So, many also cracked jokes in the comment section.
One Twitter user wrote, "it is the on point colour grade/weather for me."
Speaking about similar places in Tamil Nadu, another Twitter user wrote, "Was watching a documentary where an episode was set in mexico and I had a really hard time believing it wasn't some place in Tamil Nadu, from the colors on the buildings, 2 wheelers, aunties in nighties..."
Here are some of the most hilarious reactions that Alekh's tweet received. Have a look.https://twitter.com/ashishagashe/status/1400137117745901574?s=20
