An amusing video went viral on social media where a Delhi cab driver can be seen talking fluently in Sanskrit with the fellow passenger. The video has taken internet by storm and has left netizens stunned. The video has been recorded near the India Gate, New Delhi. The video shows the passenger engaging in a Sanskrit chat with his cab driver. Interestingly, he responded in the same language. The passenger also questioned the driver about his hometown, to which he responded that his name is Ashok and he is from Gonda in Uttar Pradesh. The driver was also asked about his family members, and he answered all of them in fluent Sanskrit. Though India is a diverse country, this is one of those rare cases where somebody is seen talking in Sanskrit so fluently, as these days the language stays confined to priests and holy scriptures.
