A Bengaluru-based techie has shared a video talking about why many people keep living in the city even though they often complain about daily problems. In the video posted on Instagram, he explains that Bengaluru can feel difficult at times, but it also plays a big role in shaping people’s careers and lives.
He says the city is often associated with traffic, high rent, and water issues, but people still do not leave because of what they gain from being there. The video focuses on how personal and professional growth keeps many residents connected to the city despite its challenges.
City Complaints Don’t Lead To People Leaving
In the clip, the man identified as Ankit talks about how Bengaluru creates a mixed feeling for those living there. He says people often complain about traffic, expensive rent, and daily struggles, but still choose to stay. He explains that the reason is not just the city itself, but what it gives to people.
In the video, he says, “There is something very strange about Bangalore. People who live here constantly complain about the traffic, the expensive rent and the water problems, yet they never really leave the city. Because the truth is, people do not just love Bangalore. They love the version of themselves that Bangalore helped them become.”
He further adds, “For someone, this city gave them their first high-paying job. For someone else, it became the place where they started their own startup. Someone changed their family’s financial situation for the first time here, while someone found a mentor who shaped their entire career. That is why people tolerate the struggle. Because for them, Bangalore is not just a city. It is a turning point.”
The video was posted with the caption, “Banglore builds IT careers that change lives.”
Social Media Relates To Bengaluru Experience
The video quickly connected with many viewers, especially those working in the tech sector. People said it reflected their own experience of moving to the city for better opportunities.
A user wrote, “This is exactly why people complain about Bangalore every day but still cannot leave it.”
Another said, “The city tests your patience, but it also gives you opportunities that change your life.”
A comment read, “Traffic and rent are real problems, but career growth here is also real.” Another user added, “Every engineer has one Bangalore story that changed everything.”
