Spending over a thousand rupees on buying lady finger is not exactly something that any Indian would ever choose– perhaps that’s why, this Indian man in the US and the rest of the Indian netizens were left shocked after the man came across “Bhindi worth Rs 7,200” at a store! Wait, what? A video was shared on social media, where the man showed a small container he came across at the store. The container had “85 grams” of fried and salted ‘Bhindi’, which was being sold for over USD 6. Calculating the cost of 1 kilogram of ‘Bhindi’, the man stated that it will cost over Rs 7,000.The video immediately went viral, as most commented how it's simply a “sabzi” in India, but is a full-blown “snack” in the US. A few also commented how the price was “okay”,
considering that the store’s consumers were not just spending in dollars but were also earning in dollars.Check out the viral post: The post was shared on Instagram, by the handle ‘ashishahuja.usa’. The post was shared two days ago and pulled over 1K views from people.
Internet’s reactions: “It is not costly for Americans because their income is high and it’s healthy,” a user said. “6.40 dollar value is around 500 in India. But in america 1 dollar actually values 23 rs as compared to india . Around 120 will be its price,” added another person. “That is very costly. How are people even buying this?” asked another.ALSO READ: ‘Abandoned Us On Island’: Woman Claims Online Travel Site Failed To Update Changed Flight Status“It’s not that bad for them,” added another. “Apart from the fact that they might not get top bhindi as easily as in India, this is hardly any issue for people in the US. If you calculate the cost for the money they are earning there and the currency value they have, it is actually fine for them,” commented another person.
