Bengaluru’s streets have a unique way of turning everyday scenes into viral sensations, and the city’s latest internet hit proves it once again. A simple fruit cart, a handwritten poster, and a dose of honest
humour have come together to create what social media users are calling another classic “peak Bengaluru moment.”
A simple poster that won big hearts online
The now-viral image shows a modest fruit cart stacked with fresh watermelons and papayas. But what truly caught attention was a quirky poster attached to the front. Instead of flashy visuals or health claims, the sign carried a straightforward, humorous appeal, “Hi, I’m Karthik. I promised him this poster will increase sales. Please buy fruits from him.”
A Bengaluru-based techie shared the moment on X (formerly Twitter), captioning it, “This was today’s @peakbengaluru. Love it!” The post quickly gained traction, with users praising the poster’s honesty, simplicity, and wholesome vibe.
Copywriter behind the poster reacts
Adding a delightful twist to the story, the creator of the poster soon discovered its viral fame and joined the conversation. Commenting on the post, he wrote, “Yo, I made this. Didn’t know it would reach X. Anyway, buy fruits from him.”
His casual and good-humoured response only amplified the charm, with many users applauding both the creativity and the intention behind the message.'
Internet rush to find the fruit cart
The poster didn’t just entertain, it sparked curiosity and action. One user even asked for the exact location of the cart, saying they wanted to send a friend to shop there. This reaction suggests the clever message may be achieving its original goal: boosting sales for a local vendor.
