Bengaluru, colloquially known as the Silicon Valley of India, has long been associated with tech and innovations. In an incident reflecting this, a Bengaluru man recently shared a post showing the side hustle of techies as Rapido riders.

In the post, Vaibhav Gupta, an X user, gave a shoutout to his Rapido rider , who is a developer, taking coding tutorials mid-ride. The now-viral photo shows the glowing mobile screen attached to the handlebars, as the rider listened to the Node.js tutorial on YouTube.
