When it comes to coming up with unique solutions to basic problems, desis think from a different perspective and bring something very creative and innovative, don’t they?
In Rajasthan’s Jodhpur, a man came up with his desi jugaad to beat the heat. Amid the ongoing heatwave and soaring temperatures across the country, large parts of Rajasthan have been grappling with the heat, even leading to shortages of electricity and water.
To deal with the situation, the Rajasthan man installed a makeshift shower on his scooter to cool himself down while riding his two-wheeler in broad daylight. A video of the man’s innovative mini-shower has gone viral on social media, drawing a lot of attention from users.
A content creator named Fun With Singh shared a clip of the man, showing him riding the scooter while also enjoying the water shower from a plastic dispenser attached to the floorboard.
As the man drove around the city on his scooter with the water shower, many around him gathered to record the antics. Some even lauded him for his creativity. The video has been widely shared on social media platforms, including Instagram and X. A user wrote, “Super idea to avoid the heat,” while another commented, “The man rocked people shocked.”
“This technique should not go out of India,” another user joked. The video has already amassed over 2 million views, along with more than 8,00,000 likes and several comments.
Earlier, another desi jugaad caught the internet’s attention, leaving everyone puzzled after a man managed to convert his pedestal fan into a cooler. While a fan just blows air, coolers use water and grass to provide cool air. Keeping this concept in mind, the man stuffed honeycomb pads into two separate bottles and connected them with pipes to a motor and water bucket.
Though looking promising, the video received divided reactions on Instagram. While some mocked the idea, some even pointed out that the motor could have a short circuit due to the water connection. It is pertinent to note that temperatures are soaring above 46 degrees across several parts of the country, primarily north India.
