Drive-Thru ATM Booth? Old Pic of Man on Scooter Withdrawing Money Scooter Tickles Internet – News18

Desis have an uncanny ability to steal the spotlight, especially when it comes to unwittingly standing out. It’s not that they intentionally seek the limelight; it’s just an inherent Indian trait to exude unintentional humor, particularly among the older generation. This characteristic was humourously highlighted in an old photo that recently made waves on social media. The image showcased a man’s quest for withdrawing money, elevating comfort to the highest level by boldly driving his scooter into the ATM booth for a ‘fast and easy’ transaction.

Yes, you read it correctly! The photo resurfaced on the micro-blogging site ‘X’ courtesy of a user named @dekhane_mukul, who aptly captioned it, “This guy deserves a Special Bharat Ratna Award.” The picture depicted a man clad in a checkered shirt and pants, navigating his scooter directly into Punjab National Bank’s (PNB) ATM booth. Seated on the vehicle, he effortlessly extended towards the booth, handling his transaction with flair.

While the photo, taken from the back, didn’t confirm the cash withdrawal, it certainly sparked laughter across the internet.

As the image circulated, people playfully speculated on the challenges that might have prompted the man to remain on his scooter. “Stand nahi hain sir. Gaadi kaise Rakhu,” joked one user. Another remarked, “Drive in theatres , drive in restaurants r passé! Drive in ATMs … new trend.”

The humour continued with remarks like, “He needs nobel in utilising the facilities and Oscar in driving,” and a suggestion for a unique award, “Sorry… he should be given an ATM ratna award.. suitable awards for extraordinary actions.”

Earlier, another notable incident related to ATMs previously captured attention. A video featuring a man executing a cardless cash withdrawal from India’s inaugural UPI-ATM gained viral status on social media, sparking intrigue in the fintech community. This groundbreaking innovation, a collaborative effort between Hitachi Payment Services and the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), made its debut during the Global Fintech Fest in Mumbai.
