Watching TV and eating dinner is more like a ritual. Relatable? Be it home or a restaurant, most of us look for the giant screen. Recently, a viral video from a canteen in Bengaluru has taken the Internet by storm. It's not the food but the contents of the programme running on the food joint's television that has caught people's interest. Wondering why? It's perhaps because the TV was not showing a news channel, documentary series, sports show or a daily soap. Rather, in the video, we can see Tesla CEO Elon Musk's interview with American computer scientist Lex Friedman playing on the TV. You read that right.

The video is being hailed as another example of a "peak Bengaluru moment" because most restaurants are hardly seen playing such content on television. The clip has received more than 43k views on the platform.
