Bryan Johnson expresses love for ba***odi and jugaad, netizens react ‘give him an Aadhaar card’

Anti-aging expert Bryan Johnson’s six-day trip is making headlines and now the tech millionaire is back in the news for what he has learned in the country and which has left his followers delighted on social media platforms.

The millionaire, while touring the country, has been sharing his vision of everything Indian.

In his latest post, the 47-year-old left many surprised by praising some of the commonly used desi slang.

“I love the ba***odi culture in India. It perfectly captures my worldview: take your job seriously, not yourself,” Johnson said in a post on X, which attracted a lot of attention.

A user, who was amused by the millionaire’s opinion, asked him what he thought about another term commonly used in India.

“How about jugaad? Koi blueprint ka sasta jugaad batao (Is there any cheap model),” he said, referring to his anti-aging project Blueprint.

“I like jugaad; most innovation comes from frugality. But if that means cutting corners, we are in trouble. Fixing air pollution in India will require an overhaul, it can’t be done with jugaad,” he replied the executive director.

The millionaire’s post left X users amused and quickly went viral with many commenting on the post and praising his knowledge of Indian slang.

“Bro spent a few days in India but became more Indian than most of us,” one user wrote.

“Bryan bhaiya ne kaha hai to manna hi padega (If Bryan has said it, we will have to accept),” commented another.

“Give him an Aadhaar card now,” wrote a third user. “They are Tunuk Tunuk Tananaing Bryan Johnson,” a fourth user commented.

“That’s the secret ingredient to surviving and thriving: serious work with the advantage of not taking life too seriously. Perfect balance, right?” reads one comment.

“Well that’s an endorsement. It definitely wasn’t on my bingo card,” said another user.
