'Main Gujarati Hoon, Marathi Bolunga Hi Nahi': Man Refuses To Speak Marathi After Being Forced | Viral Video

Gujarati Man Viral Video: Imagine the bustling streets of Mumbai, where diverse voices usually blend like colours in a vibrant painting, but lately, they've been clashing like thunder. Tensions over languages are boiling over, turning everyday chats into heated battles, especially between local Marathi speakers and people from other parts of India. Take the recent uproar from a video that's blowing up online. It shows a guy behind the wheel of a fancy Range Rover, who claims to be Gujarati, stubbornly shutting down demands to switch tongues.

An off-camera voice pushes, "Marathit bol". The driver fires back, frustrated, "Main Gujarati hoon, Marathi bolunga hi nahi". He doesn't stop there, adding, "Main Gujarati hoon, Kya kar lega Tu? Jab tum saamne wale ko jaante nahi ho na," before declaring, "India mein Hindi hi chalega", and shoving the camera aside.

There is still no clear information on when or where this incident took place, and no official complaint has been filed. But the video has added fuel to a debate that has been growing for months across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.
