Dubai is known for its luxury, skyscrapers, and expensive lifestyle, but a video of one Indian woman demonstrates how high the cost of living can be there. This young woman named Sakshi shared that she pays about 45,000 rupees per month for a very small room in Dubai, sharing the reality of renting in the city through a video.
In the video, published on Instagram, Sakshi stated that she has been living in this small room for a year. She plans to move to another room soon, but its size will remain approximately the same. She noted that only the atmosphere, neighborhood, and neighbors will change, while other conditions will remain practically unchanged.
Sakshi addressed her followers from India and other countries, noting that they might be surprised that such a small room in Dubai costs around 45,000 rupees. She pointed out the difference in rental costs between India and Dubai, emphasizing that for a budget of 45,000 rupees in India, one can find a three-bedroom house.
In the caption to the video, she wrote that she has to live in a small room in Dubai for 45,000 rupees. After a year in this room, she is moving to another small one, jokingly adding that at least she will get a new neighborhood and new neighbors. Meanwhile, she reminded residents of India that for the same amount, one can buy a three-room apartment, and asked Dubai residents to understand her difficulties.
