A wall painting advertisement in Bengaluru’s Nayandahalli has gone viral for a hilarious typo. Meant to promote a matrimonial service, the ad proudly says,”Bride and Broom Information Centre” instead of “Bride and groom,” leaving the Internet in splits.
The post went viral with over a lakh views and social media users filled the comments section with clever and humorous reactions.
A user said, “After marriage groom will be handed a broom.” Another user wrote, “Omggg I’ve seen this near the Nayandahalli junction so many times. How didn’t I ever notice that mistake??”
A third person commented, “Its a subtle message. Not far from truth in some marriages.” A fourth individual said, “Swachh Bharat is getting out of control now.”
Recently, a road sign with spelling errors also caught the Internet’s attention after entrepreneur Sanjeev shared a photo on X. Sharing the photo, he wrote, “This is on airport road towards the city. I bet someone new to the country and/or the city will definitely wonder if Bengaluru and Bangaluru are two different cities!”
The signboard, meant to guide travelers, lists four destinations: KR Puram, Tumkur, and two versions of Bengaluru—one spelled correctly and the other as Bangaluru.
