Watch: Pakistani Man's Reaction To Kolkata’s Hanging Restaurant Is Trending

A video featuring a Pakistani man’s light-hearted confusion about the location of Kolkata’s iconic Biswa Bangla Gate has taken the internet by storm, eliciting laughter and goodwill across borders. The video, which has since gone viral, captures the man’s playful banter with a stranger as they discuss the unique glass-enclosed restaurant attached to the gate, which offers diners a breathtaking 360-degree view of the city.

In the clip, the man shows a video of the Biswa Bangla Gate to a Pakistani man, prompting him to guess its location in continents like Europe or Asia. As the truth about its Indian origin is revealed, the man humorously expresses his admiration for India’s achievements, including moon missions and advancements in aviation. He also jests about the political situation in Pakistan, quipping that the country “cannot even decide their Prime Minister.”

The video has not only entertained viewers but also sparked varied views from people in the comments section. Commenting on the video, one user remarked, “This is our Kolkata. This is called Biswa Bangla Gate. Pride of our Kolkata,” while another jokingly noted, “Bro said South Africa,” accompanied by a laughing emoji.

Previously, during India’s Chandrayaan-3 moon landing, a Pakistani man had a somewhat similar humorous reaction. Fawad Chaudhry, the former Federal Minister of Information and Broadcasting in the Imran Khan government, praised the moon landing and suggested that the event should be broadcast live in Pakistan.

This request sparked a debate on Pakistan’s social media platforms, leading a YouTuber to collect public opinion on whether India’s significant moon achievement should be televised.

The video, originally posted by Pakistani YouTuber Sohaib Chaudhry, featured a humorous remark suggesting that Pakistanis were already living on the moon. The joke stemmed from the common lack of essentials like water, gas and electricity in both Pakistan and on the moon. With this witty comparison, he humorously implied that Pakistanis didn’t need to venture to the moon, as the conditions there were similar to those at home.

After the video went viral, comments praising the humour poured in, with remarks like “He’ll be great at standup comedy… couldn’t stop laughing.” People in the comments section enjoyed a good laugh at this light-hearted and satirical humour.
