In an unrelated development, another user, Sanket (@sanket77), highlighted issues at a food outlet located on the expressway near Khopoli on the Pune-bound lane. According to Sanket, there was no one available to take orders, and the present staff displayed rude behavior, saying, “Koi nahi hai, mai akela order nahi loonga” (There’s no one else; I won’t take orders alone). This incident adds to the frustrations faced by travelers along the busy route.
