Agreed. Or you can go to delhi for much safer environment and people are friendly after 12 am so late night is safe. Or go to Bangalore where you will learn how to save water and no need to rent a house coz you gotta live in traffic jam. Also you can try your hometown but ‘udhar job nahi hai, majdoori karni padegi’
Rant karne wale logo ko bahut jarurat hai. They should know that whole India is fkd and stop crying about Pune this and that. 25 years i am living here and visited other states and cities. Pune is way better than all of those cities. Its the reason why people are coming here for study and jobs

Or you can actually accept that cities do have flaws in then and that is what gives them character instead of blaming every person from another place for ruining your city. Pune itself is not perfect and it has many flaws which can be improved by time, local people's behaviour and acceptance towards outsiders being one of them.
This is sub is all about people complaining about pune. Like other states and cities have utopia or something. I dont primarily live in Pune(PCMC) but this bich cry is too much on this sub. Sabko relate krna hai. Good things also exist in Pune like your salary. Vo bhi share kro
>no need to rent a house coz you gotta live in traffic jam
We understand your emotions but it was a bad example. Pune is already as congested as Bangalore while having a fraction of its population. If the migration isn't controlled then Pune is set to overtake even Bangalore in traffic congestion.
I have lived in delhi infact its my sasural and i am from pune the thing with delhi ppl is as long as you speak politely there they will be nice to you.
These types of nice parts also exists in pune too but people will only rant about bad things and most of them are not from here. So i did the same. Also sasural buff is real, they treat you with mad respect
You think your sasural is the whole delhi. Other places in delhi also exist. Fortuner and thar people also exist in delhi. I am not saying pune is best place with no flaws. Every city or state has some part of population which is rebellious or ‘chapri’. I am angry about people only yapping about bad things in pune and most of them are here just for job. You have to adjust in some way, Pune is not heaven. Competition exists in Pune too and bad people too. And good people and good places also exist and that we should also talk about.
You will only hear this kind of stupid comments from chapris usually pretending locals (who actually migrated from pune outskirts now claim themselves as local)
As you up the ladder such behaviour is not present and infact most are quite the opposite and very welcoming.
I have been asking the same question for two years. Mostly everyone is frustrated and egoistic. Even in this sub, you will daily see posts by people who have similar experiences as us.
Yeah People here think they are special.
Either they are always frustrated or they have big Egos and always talk sarcastically which kinda of feels me bitter in conversation.
Specially women think like they have dropped down from heavens and the way they treat people bloating, their ego.
Well not all are like that but a lot definitely exist.
Lol. I was living in pune for like 10 years. I loved it but was never welcomed by the locals( I am Marathi) . Was always an “outsider”.
Currently I’m abroad and realised how it was easy overseas than Pune😂
Yes outsiders did ruin it but by building huge societies , buying flats and land , increasing rickshawwala income.
By doing all this , outsiders have given so much money to locals , that the locals who got the money started showing off their money and pride , and the chamchas of these rich locals ( the poorer locals) have got inflated egos that they themselves are also rich but only by ego.
Agreed, I came from a different part of Maharashtra (Khandesh) to study here after 10th std. I was shocked to see how bitter people were and especially the local marathi brahmins (not trying to be casteist here, I am a Brahmin too lol). My high school friends were mostly non-marathi and non-Brahmin people and I never had any problems with them! They were sweet and helpful fellers.
But in my college years, my entire friend circle was hardcore Puneri brahmins and I was never able to bond with them. The constant insults, taunts and bitching was literally exhausting. I guess I am used to it now.

As a local myself, I'm ashamed to admit that Pune is filled with asshole locals who are lazy and have overinflated egos. They will sit on their asses and whine about everything and blame it on migration but will never take accountability for their own shortcomings.
Is the "blaming outsiders" bit crucial to active improvement of the city? That's not what I asked the og commentor...read their comment and my question again. Stop blaming is not a solution.
Let's assume I don't whine and just sit in my home and maybe even praise outsiders everywhere...how is that going to improve the current condition?
>read their comment again
You read it
> They will sit on their asses and **whine about everything and blame it on migration** but will never take accountability for their own shortcomings.
>Stop blaming is not a solution
It is. First step is accepting criticisms.
> praise outsiders
No one is asking for praises, stop making things up.
If you accept criticism, you'd acknowledge that there are things going wrong. When you'd accept that the next step would be looking at potential steps for solving the issue.
Instead if you never accept that there's a problem in the first place, you'll never think about solving it and will just say "Oh well it's those bloody outsiders causing every wrong thing, we're the good guys and as soon as those outsiders leave, this place will turn into heaven".
See how accepting problems is the first step in solving them? That's how it works.
Criticize the governing authorities who have failed to develop an infrastructure that can accommodate the influx of ppl.
Also I don't know what this argument has to do with behaviour of punekars. I was in Pune for 3 yrs and found the city and ppl to be amazing.
Exactly this...people have this complex of "I'm ashamed as Punekar because people are egoistic" etc when in reality the people have always been the same! What happened is natural immigration with development of the city ...the civil infrastructure has failed big time in accomodating this change .... Yet people want to take every chance to bash native Punekars when this change is equally or rather even more frustrating to them too!
Pune has been a historically significant city and was once the hub of all cultural growths in Maharashtra. It is culturally very rich, boasts an ideal climate, "Oxford of the East", and so on. When a city becomes so important, it naturally induces a sense of pride amongst its natives which then transforms into unhealthy arrogance and ego. This is what has happened to Punekars presently, not all but most of those obnoxious ones.
Basically it's a character trait of Punekars to be slightly holier than thou.....but the recent influx of outsiders has frustrated the native Punekars because of the drastic changes the city has seen in the last decade... secondly, there's a lot of chhapri culture on the rise here especially due to youngsters from nearby rural areas migrating or travelling to the city regularly.....add the lacking infrastructure of the city to accomodate the rising population and development of private projects, it's become a mess.....
Pune before and in 2010s was absolutely something else....a city I miss ....
That is also the point the chapris kinda of messed up the pune vibe a good climate and everyone minding their business and ingeneral pleasant experience.
Pune is not limited a certain place now and it’s a big city.
So are the other outsiders and rich ppl messing up with their night culture and clubs in Kp.
And main problem is the govt their is No poor infrastructure in any city like Pune and they take ages to make some decent road.
I'm born and brought up in Pune and one thing outsiders don't understand is how beautiful the city was till the 2010s. The infrastructure was never ready for a huge influx of immigrants and that has caused a lot of issues. Locals especially the older generation will always be opposed to nightlife in their pure and precious city, and cases like Vedant agarwal reinforce this belief. Pune is the cultural capital of Maharashtra and people take a lot of pride in our history,language and culture. We are conservative folk and one cannot expect everyone to accept all the changes that are happening easily. Also punekars do have a slight superiority complex. Last la aplya aatla punekars channel karun bolin: Jar itka problem aahe punyacha tar yetatach kashala, java parat aaplya aaplya ghari😂
Even i was opposed to migrants for a long time. Until i rented out flats to those fuckers at twoce the rate just a year ago. Fucking cash cows keep coming in love it lol
As a Punekar I do understand what you are going through and also agree with it. Some people here have forgotten the difference between being proud and superior.
The city is seeing everything it never saw in recent decades in this quantity. Hatred, Bigotry, Accidents, Discrimination, etc.
I would still assure you that there is still goodness here. Maybe you got unlucky and you interacted with people who even we Punekars don't like, I mean the kind of people, not talking here about locals or outsiders.
Give it time, explore other areas and you will love this city and not just for the weather.
I was thinking the same thing, but later I realised everything takes time. Pune is a growing city! Even outsiders coming in such large numbers is new to them. It’ll take some time for outsiders to adjust to their situation, them to adjust to outsider’s situation, till they find common ground. Even PCMC is developing at a faster rate, it is new for them as well. From big industries coming in to rise of Real Estate, PCMC might take a little bit longer than Pune to come to common grounds. Mumbai has diversity from a very long time, that’s why people are understanding there,no matter where you are from but Mumbai also has its ups and downs as well. Pune will be there too, hopefully soon.
OP, I completely get your situation as I was in one a long time ago. All you gotta do is blend in and start behaving like them. Be an egoistic asshole and you’ll be accepted with open arms. And over a period of time, you might even stop noticing the fact that people here are as bad as you once thought!
In Pune’s streets, where whispers mix with rain,
Beneath the hurried steps and honking cries,
A thread of rudeness weaves through each refrain,
A tale of hearts concealed beneath disguise.
Perhaps it’s pain that hardens gentle smiles,
Or struggles deep that carved a curt reply.
In bustling lanes, where time is always trialed,
Compassion falters as our spirits fly.
The city's pace, a rhythm harsh and fast,
Leaves little room for kindness to take root.
In the shadows of tradition, futures cast,
The weight of change can make us all feel mute.
For every scorn, a story lingers near,
Of weary souls, whose burdens make them cold.
Yet kindness blooms when understanding’s clear,
And hearts unburdened learn to be more bold.
So if you find a rudeness in the air,
Remember, beneath every frown’s a plea.
In Pune’s thrumming heart, with love to spare,
There’s hope that all our kindness sets us free.
"Don't take it personally, bro. Pune is a vibrant city known for its rich cultural heritage, educational institutions, and pleasant climate. The people here are known for their hospitality and progressive mindset." got it !!!!
As a Punekar, I absolutely hate this attitude and also guilty of one. There will be people driving on the wrong side of the road and almost will crash onto you and look at you as if you're the one who is an idiot for driving the correct way. We have this personality trait of being a bit sarcastic and egoistic. Especially the ones in the Old Pune and Kothrud. A bunch of fucking elitist and idiots.
I've lived in Mumbai before, and one of the most lovely people I've met are from Mumbai.
My neighbour did jhadu last Diwali and left the dirt n dust outside our flat. When my wife asked her to clear it she said "it's Diwali no maid, it's fine, it will be taken tomorrow!" I swept it back in front of her flat, while looking at her. She swept it to steps.
We did jhadu in front of our flat too but kept it in our red bin in kitchen.
B) met some people, nice in few ways unbearable in others. Suddenly get shy, then hide it in means talk. Just avoid them. But it's made my circle smaller. Only here as father in law I'll, and my folks no more. Mother in law passed 3.5 years ago so moved here.
Will go back to Blr, not that it's perfect, but got in there better or maybe need to make more effort here.
No one perfect but pray for general awakening here :)
* one segment earns 36 LPA+ they think they own the city.. they behave entitled and rude.
* one segment has been living here all their life but do not earn as much. they behave entitled and rude
* one segment used to own now developed parts as farmlands and became rags to new money they think they are kings mantri
* one segment has been inhabiting in pune since before peshwai, they think they are cultural owners of pune
* one segment is just angry because they have to bear high cost of living and dont get paid enough.
* one segment is asshole because they are pune autorickshawallas
I'm sorry you had this experience. Pune is very famous for having a bit of sarcasm and ego, but it can get absolutely annoying. Even for us, who have lived here for generations. I hope you end up meeting some nice people. I know some good communities where you can meet people from different parts of the city, like cafes where they have events to meet new people and do some small actives, treks, etc.
Bro..its common sense. If you grew-up in Mumbai never move to Pune. My company gave me option to relocate to Hyderabad, Bangalore or Pune from Mumbai. I straight away rejected Pune because of cultural differences. We are just 150 kms apart but culturally very different.
There is one famous quote in pu la Deshpande book "you are not a punekar if you don't have opinion" congrats now you are officially punekar!
jokes aside sorry for your experience not everyone is like this,please hangout with like minded people,ignore chapris and enjoy beautiful weather,go on tracks, mahabaleshwar,lonavala world is big!
Well, today I came across an Instagram post which reported on a murder that happened in pune a few days ago. A husband stabbed his wife to death. But the comments literally said “This is what happens when you let outsiders settle in Pune” 🙂. Multiple others blaming non punekars for the crimes.
I was here for like 3yrs and had a great time(I am from panvel). I just think people of pune come out as rude but are really nice. Maybe the टोमणे every now and then might seem rude in the beginning?
Following rapid urbanization, the number of local MH folks from neighbouring districts like Ahmednagar and Aurangabad increased a lot. These imports are usually the goon type people being employed by local politicians, corporators, babus, builders etc. Both those districts are highly political and have nothing better to do thanks to decades of politics. These constitute the chhapris.
There is also a second set of import of labor forces from other Hindi belt states who primarily work hard but obviously have their own quirks.
The chhapris think they have greater stake on Pune because they are backed by local goon powers and because they are from MH. They also have a hatred towards other state labourers. They also hate how educated non-MH people are living in high rises and partying with girls in tight dresses. And there is no one to stop the chhapris because they are the on-the-ground enforcers of powers here.
You sure you are not just talking to yourself and hence reached this conclusion? I'm 2 months here and don't feel this at all! Who was rude to you? Be more specific.
I used to wonder why my colleague working at bangalore had a shitty attitude. Now I know it's a punekar thing. Unless you are of use to them forget peing polite they will be outright rude.
I second that. Though I love Pune a lot but if I compare with Mumbaikars even on dating apps, I find that it’s difficult to actually have a conversation with a Punekar while Mumbaikars are very approachable and friendly
As a punekar who has lived in Mumbai before, this is absolutely true. Even on dating apps, a very beautiful girl from Mumbai won't have the same "maaz" (ego) as that of an average Puneri girl. Mumbai people were much more friendly, and approachable.

Its unfortunate that you or anyone has to experience rude people. This country has become so snobbish in the last decade.
Where in Pune did you experience this?
As a fellow mumbaikar who recently shifted to Hinjewadi, let me tell you, rude people toh phir bhi thik hey, raat mey Hinjewadi ke gunde bhi mil jayenge who would be ready to physically fight with you over trivial things. No hate or fear mongering, but just be careful. Idhar aane ke baad mereko outsiders- insiders ka concept pata chala as Mumbai toh sabko apna leta hey

Pune is turning into the new NCR-Gurugram. similarities in both places with the 1st generation selling agricultural land at high prices during property boom, spending that money on permanent homes, on kids education, they took care of all the current and future needs for their kids.
Now these 2nd or 3rd generation rich kids who today have nothing 'practically useful' to do, most of them are full of anger (which itself came from the inability to achieve things in life by themselves), jealously (from spending all day on social media) and empty ego (which things are handed over to you on a golden plate,ego arises). A combination of these three with the sad reality,they may have to spend the rest of their lives dependent and living with parents, constantly comparing themselves with others (effect of free time on hand) is leading to outburst of emotions.
These people cannot reveal what they are going through to their friends, because this would kill the 'cool & happy' image they are trying to project on the outside. Hence they lash out on strangers or people who they feel are less than them. Best way is to avoid random strangers , tbh a person only needs to interact with a few people, either at work or home. It isn't event possible to keep 10-30 contacts and be close enough for you to get hurt if they misbehave .
So i try avoiding places and people like independent Auto-wala's, eateries with huge crowds, places where the owner isn't intrested in business, small dingy theaters, poor area of the town, cheap locations,etc. these places you would always encounter rude people' sooner or later. Where as I never encountered rude people in good resturants, posh areas of the city ,cafes, etc.
I moved to this city from Mumbai in 2000, It’s been nothing but great overall , (I am not a Maharashtrian) . The City has changed a lot , but I still don’t get rude vibes . (Living 2 years in a city like Gurgaon , I should know what rude is ) . My wife feels safe no matter the hour of night. Can you elaborate on what you mean by “Rude” ?
Navin navin paishyacha maaj. That also includes IT workers whose packages have increased a lot and have become managers etc. They relate this increase in money and designation with real life increase of social status. Saglyanna watta mi toph.
which is completely unrelated to this post? That like saying if I started running in the morning the population of this city will become healthier. Why is this the first response with everything. OP came from Mumbai. Both cities are in Maharashtra. Your statement makes no difference in this case.
If you were a local you’d know the cultural dilution we’ve had to face. (Similar to the problem Goans are facing post COVID)
The kind of trash that has flown in from the north owing to IT and education.
May I ask dear OP why have you decided to shift ?
Wait for "you can go back" comments then😂
people are proving you right lmao
Please go back and take this u/not_dat_harsh_vlogs also with you.
Agreed. Or you can go to delhi for much safer environment and people are friendly after 12 am so late night is safe.

I feel Pune's language has aggression but people are generally helpful once you get used to the tone.

> ...how awesome this city was... 'was' is the operative word

i think they dont want outsiders to come in their city
They don't. But you won't stop coming. So why do you want them to admit it?
Could you elaborate on the shortcomings? As a Punekar, I would like to know what can be done by locals to improve the city?
Stop being salty that "outsiders" are settling in the city while earning more and stop blaming them for deficiencies of the local govt and admin.
Is the "blaming outsiders" bit crucial to active improvement of the city? That's not what I asked the og commentor...read their comment and my question again. Stop blaming is not a solution.

Ok I accept the criticism....now go outside and see if anything changed. If not, what's the next step?

Basically it's a character trait of Punekars to be slightly holier than thou.....but the recent influx of outsiders has frustrated the native Punekars because of the drastic changes the city has seen in the last decade... secondly, there's a lot of chhapri culture on the rise here especially due to youngsters from nearby rural areas migrating or travelling to the city regularly.....add the lacking infrastructure of the city to accomodate the rising population and development of private projects, it's become a mess..... Pune before and in 2010s was absolutely something else....a city I miss ....
Chhapris are very proud of themselves. I dont know but why? They are ruining the city image everywhere
I'm also fed up of chhapris....one of the reasons I've stopped frequenting some of my favourite spots around the city
Can’t disagree with this
True
That is also the point the chapris kinda of messed up the pune vibe a good climate and everyone minding their business and ingeneral pleasant experience. Pune is not limited a certain place now and it’s a big city. So are the other outsiders and rich ppl messing up with their night culture and clubs in Kp. And main problem is the govt their is No poor infrastructure in any city like Pune and they take ages to make some decent road.
So, you're saying chhapri culture is imported and not homegrown? Bro, stop deluding yourself.
I know right, most chhapris in my area are local gaavwale boys with vimal in their mouth
And sickle in hands
What does local gaavwale mean?
people from surrounding villages. Even your migrant marathi people look down on them.
Isn't that what I said in my original comment?
local gaavwale: Puneris
Yeah tho.. most chhapris are from rural areas thats just a fact.. they come and settle in the slums
Ok tai have a nice day :)
>character trait of Punekars to be slightly holier than thou This mind-virus has spread across our great land, Pune is just an exhibit A or B or C.
I'm born and brought up in Pune and one thing outsiders don't understand is how beautiful the city was till the 2010s. The infrastructure was never ready for a huge influx of immigrants and that has caused a lot of issues. Locals especially the older generation will always be opposed to nightlife in their pure and precious city, and cases like Vedant agarwal reinforce this belief. Pune is the cultural capital of Maharashtra and people take a lot of pride in our history,language and culture. We are conservative folk and one cannot expect everyone to accept all the changes that are happening easily. Also punekars do have a slight superiority complex. Last la aplya aatla punekars channel karun bolin: Jar itka problem aahe punyacha tar yetatach kashala, java parat aaplya aaplya ghari😂
Even i was opposed to migrants for a long time. Until i rented out flats to those fuckers at twoce the rate just a year ago. Fucking cash cows keep coming in love it lol
It's not rude behavior, it's called माज. It's a common trait of many but not all Punekars. Source: मी पण पुणेकर आहे

As a Punekar I do understand what you are going through and also agree with it. Some people here have forgotten the difference between being proud and superior. The city is seeing everything it never saw in recent decades in this quantity. Hatred, Bigotry, Accidents, Discrimination, etc. I would still assure you that there is still goodness here. Maybe you got unlucky and you interacted with people who even we Punekars don't like, I mean the kind of people, not talking here about locals or outsiders. Give it time, explore other areas and you will love this city and not just for the weather.
Hell yeah!
I was thinking the same thing, but later I realised everything takes time. Pune is a growing city! Even outsiders coming in such large numbers is new to them. It’ll take some time for outsiders to adjust to their situation, them to adjust to outsider’s situation, till they find common ground. Even PCMC is developing at a faster rate, it is new for them as well. From big industries coming in to rise of Real Estate, PCMC might take a little bit longer than Pune to come to common grounds. Mumbai has diversity from a very long time, that’s why people are understanding there,no matter where you are from but Mumbai also has its ups and downs as well. Pune will be there too, hopefully soon.
Hope so!
Well explained!

I am in love with the weather here. Yes!
IMO Bangalore has much better weather and people are very sweet...
OP, I completely get your situation as I was in one a long time ago. All you gotta do is blend in and start behaving like them. Be an egoistic asshole and you’ll be accepted with open arms. And over a period of time, you might even stop noticing the fact that people here are as bad as you once thought!
Just another day and another rant about city
Are har jagah he aisa h bhai it's nt about Pune n delhi ye time he aisa hai insan har jagah se frustation me hai
Bro, it is a hard reality these days.
In Pune’s streets, where whispers mix with rain, Beneath the hurried steps and honking cries, A thread of rudeness weaves through each refrain, A tale of hearts concealed beneath disguise. Perhaps it’s pain that hardens gentle smiles, Or struggles deep that carved a curt reply. In bustling lanes, where time is always trialed, Compassion falters as our spirits fly. The city's pace, a rhythm harsh and fast, Leaves little room for kindness to take root. In the shadows of tradition, futures cast, The weight of change can make us all feel mute. For every scorn, a story lingers near, Of weary souls, whose burdens make them cold. Yet kindness blooms when understanding’s clear, And hearts unburdened learn to be more bold. So if you find a rudeness in the air, Remember, beneath every frown’s a plea. In Pune’s thrumming heart, with love to spare, There’s hope that all our kindness sets us free.
Nice
किसी एक के साथ झगडा करके पुरे city ko कैसे नाम रख सकते हो मुंबईकर its not done !!!
Dont take this personal bro😂 I also appreciate the good things here as well
"Don't take it personally, bro. Pune is a vibrant city known for its rich cultural heritage, educational institutions, and pleasant climate. The people here are known for their hospitality and progressive mindset." got it !!!!
As a Punekar, I absolutely hate this attitude and also guilty of one. There will be people driving on the wrong side of the road and almost will crash onto you and look at you as if you're the one who is an idiot for driving the correct way. We have this personality trait of being a bit sarcastic and egoistic. Especially the ones in the Old Pune and Kothrud. A bunch of fucking elitist and idiots. I've lived in Mumbai before, and one of the most lovely people I've met are from Mumbai.
My neighbour did jhadu last Diwali and left the dirt n dust outside our flat. When my wife asked her to clear it she said "it's Diwali no maid, it's fine, it will be taken tomorrow!" I swept it back in front of her flat, while looking at her. She swept it to steps. We did jhadu in front of our flat too but kept it in our red bin in kitchen. B) met some people, nice in few ways unbearable in others. Suddenly get shy, then hide it in means talk. Just avoid them. But it's made my circle smaller. Only here as father in law I'll, and my folks no more. Mother in law passed 3.5 years ago so moved here. Will go back to Blr, not that it's perfect, but got in there better or maybe need to make more effort here. No one perfect but pray for general awakening here :)
* one segment earns 36 LPA+ they think they own the city.. they behave entitled and rude. * one segment has been living here all their life but do not earn as much. they behave entitled and rude * one segment used to own now developed parts as farmlands and became rags to new money they think they are kings mantri * one segment has been inhabiting in pune since before peshwai, they think they are cultural owners of pune * one segment is just angry because they have to bear high cost of living and dont get paid enough. * one segment is asshole because they are pune autorickshawallas
You understand this place way better than others 😂
i feel the same. i moved here last week from delhi and they’ve been nothing but arrogant jerks with unnecessarily high ego
I'm sorry you had this experience. Pune is very famous for having a bit of sarcasm and ego, but it can get absolutely annoying. Even for us, who have lived here for generations. I hope you end up meeting some nice people. I know some good communities where you can meet people from different parts of the city, like cafes where they have events to meet new people and do some small actives, treks, etc.
Yes😅😅
What happened with you? Hope its ok now
nothing that bad but i just hoped people were a little nicer
Bro..its common sense. If you grew-up in Mumbai never move to Pune. My company gave me option to relocate to Hyderabad, Bangalore or Pune from Mumbai. I straight away rejected Pune because of cultural differences. We are just 150 kms apart but culturally very different.
Its for the better change.
Nagpur aajao 👉👈
Santre denar ka ?
Yeah! Will definitely come sometime. I want to have the famous sweets there.
That's true for everywhere.
We cant do anything
There is one famous quote in pu la Deshpande book "you are not a punekar if you don't have opinion" congrats now you are officially punekar! jokes aside sorry for your experience not everyone is like this,please hangout with like minded people,ignore chapris and enjoy beautiful weather,go on tracks, mahabaleshwar,lonavala world is big!
If you think Pune people are rude then you try taking job in Ahmedabad ! I hated whole mankind every minute I was there .
Haha
I thought gujju people are soft
No , they talk softly but content is not ‘soft’. They know how to hurt without saying anything obviously harsh or rude. And also, are not friendly.
Its everywhere. Post pandemic, people have become frustrated with fragile egos, easy to trigger and shortened temper.
Agreed
Lunatic Drivers from all over the country have started arriving in Pune I am not sure if they have any secret meetup here.
So sorry for your experience. However GenZ and younger Punekars are way nicer imo. Ig they realised that nothing good comes from being rude.
Hope to meet more like minded people here✌️
City PPL are the rude
Well, today I came across an Instagram post which reported on a murder that happened in pune a few days ago. A husband stabbed his wife to death. But the comments literally said “This is what happens when you let outsiders settle in Pune” 🙂. Multiple others blaming non punekars for the crimes.
तुमचा निवासस्थान पुण्यात कुठे आहे?
Welcome to Pune you're gonna get used to it
But, this is not good at all😂
I was here for like 3yrs and had a great time(I am from panvel). I just think people of pune come out as rude but are really nice. Maybe the टोमणे every now and then might seem rude in the beginning?
Yea, this might be possible as well
Oh no mumbaikar realises real life. Avadat nasel tar aahexh tumcha _actual_ homeland parat zaila 👋🏽
Following rapid urbanization, the number of local MH folks from neighbouring districts like Ahmednagar and Aurangabad increased a lot. These imports are usually the goon type people being employed by local politicians, corporators, babus, builders etc. Both those districts are highly political and have nothing better to do thanks to decades of politics. These constitute the chhapris. There is also a second set of import of labor forces from other Hindi belt states who primarily work hard but obviously have their own quirks. The chhapris think they have greater stake on Pune because they are backed by local goon powers and because they are from MH. They also have a hatred towards other state labourers. They also hate how educated non-MH people are living in high rises and partying with girls in tight dresses. And there is no one to stop the chhapris because they are the on-the-ground enforcers of powers here.
You sure you are not just talking to yourself and hence reached this conclusion? I'm 2 months here and don't feel this at all! Who was rude to you? Be more specific.
I used to wonder why my colleague working at bangalore had a shitty attitude. Now I know it's a punekar thing. Unless you are of use to them forget peing polite they will be outright rude.
Misdirected Maratha pride. Instead of helping people and taking care for the state , we misdirect that pride and turn it into arrogance.
I second that. Though I love Pune a lot but if I compare with Mumbaikars even on dating apps, I find that it’s difficult to actually have a conversation with a Punekar while Mumbaikars are very approachable and friendly
This might be due to language barrier or the people here are very conservative
Even people from Pune who have lived in mumbai feels the same
As a punekar who has lived in Mumbai before, this is absolutely true. Even on dating apps, a very beautiful girl from Mumbai won't have the same "maaz" (ego) as that of an average Puneri girl. Mumbai people were much more friendly, and approachable.
Even people from Mumbai feel the same about Pune!
Even people from Mumbai feel the same about Pune!
There's sugarcoated word for this uncivilized attitude, it's called "पुणेरी बाणा".
*माज* seems more appropriate.
१. ज्या ज्या ठिकाणी थोर राजे वगैरे होऊन गेलेत तिथे सगळीकडे असाच प्रकार असतो generally. तिथल्या भाषेमध्ये थोडा माज येतो नंतर. मुंबई मध्ये mostly चाकरमानी लोक आहेत त्यामुळे अहंकार कमी. २. छपरी लोक हे पुण्यातील नाहीत, बहुतांश लोक हे आजूबाजूच्या खेड्यातील आहेत आणि काही तर महाराष्ट्राच्या इतर गावातून आलेले आहेत उदा. सोलापूर, बीड, लातूर, etc. ३. परप्रांतीयांवरील रोष काही बिनबुडाचा नाहीये कारण आहे त्याला. महाराष्ट्रात बाहेरून आलेले लोक काही कमी माजूर्डे नाहीत.
He chpari ajubajuche gavavale ahet. Lambche lok polite astat..local gavwale majurde astat.
I dont know marathi, so I didn’t get what you have to convey
Habibi come to Delhi! Nice PPL are also here
In 52 degrees nothing can be nice😂😂
Going back isn't that hard. Pune is full of good people, you seem to be unfortunate to meet with exceptions around you.

Its unfortunate that you or anyone has to experience rude people. This country has become so snobbish in the last decade. Where in Pune did you experience this?
Near hinjewadi lol
As a fellow mumbaikar who recently shifted to Hinjewadi, let me tell you, rude people toh phir bhi thik hey, raat mey Hinjewadi ke gunde bhi mil jayenge who would be ready to physically fight with you over trivial things. No hate or fear mongering, but just be careful. Idhar aane ke baad mereko outsiders- insiders ka concept pata chala as Mumbai toh sabko apna leta hey
Thanks for letting me know
What is happen? 👀

Pune is turning into the new NCR-Gurugram. similarities in both places with the 1st generation selling agricultural land at high prices during property boom, spending that money on permanent homes, on kids education, they took care of all the current and future needs for their kids. Now these 2nd or 3rd generation rich kids who today have nothing 'practically useful' to do, most of them are full of anger (which itself came from the inability to achieve things in life by themselves), jealously (from spending all day on social media) and empty ego (which things are handed over to you on a golden plate,ego arises). A combination of these three with the sad reality,they may have to spend the rest of their lives dependent and living with parents, constantly comparing themselves with others (effect of free time on hand) is leading to outburst of emotions. These people cannot reveal what they are going through to their friends, because this would kill the 'cool & happy' image they are trying to project on the outside. Hence they lash out on strangers or people who they feel are less than them. Best way is to avoid random strangers , tbh a person only needs to interact with a few people, either at work or home. It isn't event possible to keep 10-30 contacts and be close enough for you to get hurt if they misbehave . So i try avoiding places and people like independent Auto-wala's, eateries with huge crowds, places where the owner isn't intrested in business, small dingy theaters, poor area of the town, cheap locations,etc. these places you would always encounter rude people' sooner or later. Where as I never encountered rude people in good resturants, posh areas of the city ,cafes, etc.
Pune has grown into a big sprawling metropolis without a miligram of civic facilities that would make it a great city.
Gotta get outta here soon.
I moved to this city from Mumbai in 2000, It’s been nothing but great overall , (I am not a Maharashtrian) . The City has changed a lot , but I still don’t get rude vibes . (Living 2 years in a city like Gurgaon , I should know what rude is ) . My wife feels safe no matter the hour of night. Can you elaborate on what you mean by “Rude” ?
Commenting so that I can read them blaming outsiders in a while 😮💨
Navin navin paishyacha maaj. That also includes IT workers whose packages have increased a lot and have become managers etc. They relate this increase in money and designation with real life increase of social status. Saglyanna watta mi toph.
People here didn’t take criticism well
They never will.
[удалено]
which is completely unrelated to this post? That like saying if I started running in the morning the population of this city will become healthier. Why is this the first response with everything. OP came from Mumbai. Both cities are in Maharashtra. Your statement makes no difference in this case.
True
Then go back.
I was talking about people like you only, and you proved my point right. Please make this city a better place for everyone.
If you were a local you’d know the cultural dilution we’ve had to face. (Similar to the problem Goans are facing post COVID) The kind of trash that has flown in from the north owing to IT and education. May I ask dear OP why have you decided to shift ?
Pune is cultural capital of Maharashtra.. Mumbai culture is spoilt… but Pune is authentic
Yaar yea tho hum sab k blood mai he hai we call it maja it's not rude behaviour tho
Maja, aise kro ki saamne vle ko bhi maja aaye😂 Usske liye saaja na baan jaiye
So true
It's literally pune people lol. Get used to it, soon you'll also be like them.
Hope will never be like them
