Interestingly, a few users pointed out that peeling vegetables during a commute is a common practice in Mumbai's local trains, aimed at saving time and boosting productivity. One user drew parallels between Priya's act and a scene from the movie "The Lunchbox," where actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui's character cut vegetables during his Mumbai local train commute.

I won’t be surprised if a startup comes up with an idea of mobile hydroponics farms. Plants grow as a vehicle reaches Indiranagar from Silkboard midst of Bangalore traffic”
