The video opens with a text insert which reads, “Mumbai real estate and it is ₹1.2 crore.” Jayantika then starts showing the apartment, starting with a well-decorated but small drawing room. She confesses that initially she mistook it for a lobby.
“You have a kitchen like this and jahan pe apka chulha ayega uske this samne there is a sandaas [The toilet is just opposite to the cooking area],” she says as she goes on to show the bizarre layout of the apartment. She then shows the tiny bedroom with a bed and limited space.
She continues, “Mumbai may kuch bhi chal raha hai,” and concludes her video.
How did social media react?
An individual commented, “The bathroom looks as big as the hall.” Another added, “Matchboxes can hold more sticks.”

A third joked, “Toilet seat pe baith ke ubalte hue doodh pe nazar rakhne ka convenience de rakha hai [They have given people the convenience of keeping an eye on boiling milk while sitting inside the toilet].” A fourth wrote, “People will still buy the flat for the price. This gives the builder the complacency to build such a flat.”
