How to ride an auto, Bollywood style: Learn from this American!

This is possibly something that all of us have to face in our daily lives. "Bhaiya, jaoge," is what we ask, only to get a strong refusal from the autowallahs. It depends on their mood. Literally! Whether they want to go, how much they charge for the ride- everything is in accordance with the rickshaw-wallah's mood today. 

Such an incident happened in Hyderabad when C Christine Flair faced a similar situation. The auto driver refused to take her to Charminar and what the lady did next stands as a testimony to what should be done to all rickshaw-wallahs who endorse the same actions. While most of us would have moved out and searched for a different auto, Christine stay put and started recording the entire incident.

While this amused the driver, she didn't budge. "Main bilkul bekaar hoon. Aaj meri chhutti hai. Yaha pe baith sakti hoon main, pure din ke douran," she replied instead. Still, when the auto driver didn't give a nod for the ride, she started singing 'Mujhe need na aaye, mujhe chain na aaye' for him. 

Embarassed and shocked at the firangi's reaction, the autodriver was left with no other option but to drive her to Charminar. With the meter down, mind you!

Now, that's what you call an answer. Seems Indians too need to learn the tactics to handle such situations, from Christine. 

Here's the video of what happened:
