TV Commercial for a scooter
This commercial starts in Hindi, with a girl picking up a man on her scooter, and taking him for a ride. The only dialogue in English was the man calling her a “silly village girl”. When she stops he is back where he started and in English she points out his train. The impression that she was playing a trick on him for thinking of her as a “silly village girl” and for implying she wasn’t as smart as a city girl. This implied English was used by “brighter” people.
