Most Times Square videos that hit the internet are usually panned upwards, showing bright lights and huge billboards, however, Instagrammer Sheena Dalal Bisla panned the camera to the street vendors who make New York look a little like New Delhi.
Captioning the post as 'Times Square or New Delhi?', Bisla is visibly fascinated by the roadside entrepreneurs of New York who sell everything from Jackets to toys and food, just like Palika Bazar or Chandni Chowk in Delhi, prompting her to draw parallels between the two cities.

As icing on the cake, she also showed glimpses of a cycle-rikshaws plying in the heart of New York, reminding the viewers of home.
The internet celebrated the video with users commenting about the brutal honesty of the video and also humorously teasing her for shopping in New York even when all those things are available on the streets of Delhi.
