They should keep few such taxis and old BEST buses in museum don't scrap all of them like trams we mumbaikar have lot of golden memories with such buses and taxies
Harshal Ravankar with pollution too we have good memory
The taxi drivers can upgrade the taxis to pass latest emission standards. However, obviously it will cost them money, and will have to increase tariffs until they recover that money. But will the nostalgic customer pay for the increased tariff to sit in a kaali-peeli? I doubt that.
@@user-gy4gk5pr1g You are right authorities should not just ban all old vehicle's with such policies we will not have any old vehicle to show to our next generation in with we used to travel if that vehicle can pass pollution and road safety standard let them run if not then also allow last 10 of any number of vahical as per they think suitable as a heritage or something like this
Nostalgia is a drug
Agree with you whole heartedly, Harshal!
Never been to Mumbai
Never rode a kaali peeli taxi
Still i feel nostalgic & depressed after watching this 😭😂
Me too! 😆
Same here
But we all are grown watching it in movies and Tv
Same here🙄
Stay where you are. We are already done with tourists an immigrants
Shubham Chaudhari you are no one to stop people
After watching this video, I've decided that I'm travelling to Mumbai, just so sit in them for one last time..
The kaali peeli taxi were ranked 1 in top ten counyries with best taxi and now the heritage of mumbai city will be a history
Yup.. The moment you stop innovating and improving, you start losing the race. It was about time I guess.
@@user-gy4gk5pr1g You're right. Time to move on from these shitty taxis. Nostalgia and memories is just made up terms to stop progress.
An updated VolksWagen four door beetle should be brought back as a landmark car in recreating the charm and cute on roads. It could also serve as a high-end taxi.
It's too expensive for what is is
Plus it's small and not very practical
Its a luxury car. I’d rather sit in a honda city or civic for much cheaper.
Volkswagen has stopped the production of beetle. The gov could have launched a scheme to modernise the Padminis just like London's iconic black taxi.
@@headhunter895 true.
But Fiat as production company of their own cars is almost over.
At least we all must have sat in this taxi once in our life time
It is good thing to remove to avoid air pollution
@@xamantiwari yeah I agree 👍
No ☹️
You still did not sat?
Lol...!!!
You are not trueMumbaikar
@@Rahuldubeyrrdso what?maybe he's from someother place
This really brought tears to my eyes. I travel to work every single day by these kaali peeli cabs and I've had some of the best genuine conversation with these cab drivers. It's such a pity that they want to get rid of them.
Everyone travelled at least once in a lifetime by this buses and taxis during their struggling days in mumbai............
They are as iconic as the ambassadors in Calcutta. They should be revamped with new engines and come back on the road. They tell a tale of Mumbai that not many of today's generations knows. They are sturdier than your stupid aluminium cars of this gen. This might be my pov as a vintage car enthusiast but there is no good reason why these cars can't work anymore. The spacious and comfortable sofas and the iconic exhaust sound of the Fiat will be missed. 💔
opposite. should be scrapped into heap - no trace should remain of these uglies. they wont be missed
Actually there are tons of reasons. Emotion should never get the best of one's logic. As a calcuttan I can't wait for the ambassadors to be taken off the streets.
With passing time, the new generations will forget KAALI PEELI but not us.....
NOT US!!!
Good for you. We'll forget about the shitty kala peeli taxis ASAP.
Kolkata vibe: allow us to introduce ourselves
Ain't nobody gonna scrap off Kolkatan peeli taxis.
Kaali peeli is still there. Premier padmini will be gone. Which is still sad.
@@KunalKeshav-dq6ty Those already converted to blue-white😂. Kolkatans know.
@@ankanmaiti9864 those are just Cabs without apps.
Like the Kaali-peeli,,,Humanity is also disappearing in 2020
They can make a comeback in electric form as more conversation kits will be available at a cheaper price
Taxiwala: bas do minute dijiye, main tumhen bhagwan ke ghar chhod doonga
Government: No only your cars are going to Bhagwan, not us.
Government is not reducing taxis but their owners do. People are choosing cabs then taxi because of mobile functionality and little bit more comfort, the taxi driver are quiting their jobs.
The fiat taxi still has really good pleasant sporty sound compared to present taxi's
End of an Era!
I spent many a childhood memory visiting India. Those cabs were synonymous with Mumbai.
I still remember in 2011 I went to Mumbai for the first time with my parents and I traveled entire city of Mumbai in this Kaali peeli taxi PADMINI I WAS 11 YEAR OLD VERY GOOD KA AND NO ONE CAN MATCH IT
Dear brut...please do continue making such good videos. .
Now I've to live with it's nostalgic vibe...
My grandpa expired in Feb 2020.. He was the supervisor in 1984 in fiat padmini..! Just remembered him n felt proud..he used to share all his memories of his lifetime..n this is one of them🥰
I had a ride in the kaali peeli taxi when I was in Mumbai. I feel nostalgic about it now. They should keep a few of them somewhere, maybe in a museum so that people can look at them in the future. These are iconic of Mumbai
As a mumbaikar, RIP Fiat taxi 😭😭
Now these days only normal kala pila taxis on road.
I have rode many Padmi Fiat Taxis, they were so nostalgic :(
I almost fell out of one when the front door didn't lock properly... memories.
The kaali-peeli is the iconic classic yellow-cab of NYC.
RIP black and yellow taxies 😖😭
It is good thing to remove to avoid air pollution
@@xamantiwari Ikr 😕
Evolving with time is very necessary to survive 🤠😺
Turned them into electric.
The nail in the coffin was the reluctance of kaali peeli drivers to go anywhere , with the advent of better options where the commuter was shown a passable decency , people didn't think twice about swapping to radio cabs . Even now the kaali peeli using better models of cars are at a decline due to this . There have been so many instances where I've waited for some kaali peeli to say yes or even stop to listen about where i wanna go . Ola/Uber waiting time is always lesser , even 20 mins is justified sometimes .
Time changes.
Taxis and modern vehicles once took over from bullock carts
It may sound very silly to cry upon, but as a taxi driver's son and being a 90's born townie, it feels very bad...
This cab service is way cheaper than ola uber..No hidden charges
I am literally in tears.
Hope they get good job and all the best for the drivers for the public service they have provided for more than 50 years..I never been to bombay and used this car but I feel bad for the end of another era.
I don't even live in Mumbai, but it feels like I'm already missing a friend.
That moment when the driver says 3 rs 15 paisa... what times must be those..
I have never saw or sit in these taxis even though im feeling attachment with these kaali peeli
I never have rode them, Because I am not from Mumbai, I am not even from India. I am from Pakistan amd Still missing these Cabs already.
Please don't scrap them all out. This is Heritage of Mumbai(India).
If somewhere someone who can revive these iconic cars kali peeli , just like London Black cabs, and recently they turned next generation model with electric, thet would be great and future proof.
Please save this iconic symbol of mumbai. Without it mumbai roads has lost its own charm
Similar scenario in Kolkata too.
Why
Sotti?
That the life ... everything comes to end one day...so that a new thing can take it place...
This taxis are vanishing because cab takes cheaper fare than taxi, the taxi driver takes higher fair than taxi. The taxi driver have his own need but if all taxi are converted to CNG fuel system, taxis get booking other functionality on mobile devices like private cabs and taxi driver could take the fare as near to cabs then there will be the growth of taxi.
Why cant they make a comeback like the iconic london taxis
I'm getting emotional more
Relic of License Raj
They were an icon to the city, but as the time flies they must gone too.
It's sad, but the reality
Why does brut romanticise everything?? Is there something existential about it? Am I missing out something?
I think it's OK to romanticize something. It's a human thing to do. But people don't want to pay the price for that. For eg. if these nostalgic customers agree to pay for a fund which will modernize the taxi to meet current emission standards, then it's fine. The failure to take right actions, but only crying about it, is making it look cringe I guess.
Becoz unlike you we have emotions and attachments. We're humans. Wouldn't you romanticize your girlfriend? You would....yeah? Exactly.
They r so iconic that wiz khalifa has a song for them
*Black and yellow*
Premier Padmini
Circle, old goes and a new comes.
I believe we will have our kaali peeli taxis back on roads but only when we all behave well with each other. Those taxis will be back on the roads again. I have travelled in those taxis and they belong to this city always.
We cannot watch the video properly of you write texts at the corner of every video.. we can't see the emotions in the video or any pictures if we are busy reading the texts!
Go stand on the mumbai roads and watch the emotions all day
Why should I go to Mumbai for that 😒
I'm only taking about the video content
why can't people stop complaining for small things....🤦
@@Pushed2InsanityYT because it's the small things that make big differences..
If you don't want changes in your life you can be the same for as long as you want.. if you make small small good changes you can be so much better!
So please don't underestimate any small complaint or feedback.
But there has to be some way? Corner, up, down, left, right....? Can't just play a video with random pictures and music cuz people wouldn't understand. Also, voice over would be worse..... So that's all they have I guess 🙂
Nooooo. 😭😭😭
Reason for climate changed
1:13 aajkal toh Rs.3.15 mey 3 rupaye 15 paise bhi nahi ata
LoL
And now the icon of taxi is Hyundai santro xing
Plays a 1970s music to get thee feeling.
They should revive the engine and design of these Taxis like how they did with Double decker buses in London, so that they have less carbon emmision. Same with yellow taxis in Calcutta. It's easy to shutdown something, but with little effort we caan retain it.
PS I've never been to Mumbai so naturally never could experience these Taxis in person. But they're still in my memory...
Yes primium Padmini texi ride in Mumbai very very good expiroance 2001 also texi driver driving very good in Mumbai Citi but time hota he Jo ab pura hua Padmini fiat car ka
Make a video on Mumbai dabbawallas
Everything must come to an end at a point.
Premier auto must launch it again with new features with same model. London taxis are iconic symbol of London. We want padmini again. Govt. Must keep some of them in mumbai central n cst as a golden memories
Well nostalgia and memories can't justify the issues related to fuel, engine, fare and rarely available parts for their maintenance.
ParaDz 1 Of course they can’t stay. They have already mostly disappeared off the roads. I just hope some are kept in a museum along with some of the old BEST buses. Just to keep the memory of them alive. They were iconic and still are one of the first things tourists think about when they think about Bombay.
@@Raky2427 absolutely, but some people are reacting as if they are still the lifeline of Mumbai and they should not be halted. Yeah, they should be in a museum but people should understand the changing times. Not everything stays forever. People who rode them must have been so lucky and have close feelings for it and now those people can't accept this fact. I like how mumbaikers were closely connected to these kaali peelis. This shows their proud and likeliness of their city's local but nostalgic things.
I feel sad after this news. 😥😥 dont know why!
Fiat Premier Padmini is an emotion 😢
1.43 Taxi no 9211😂😂
As long as BMC exists so will kaali-peeli 😂
Still 30 years old Fiat taxies are runnings in mumbai, this is play with commuters Life and health due to rusty and unsafe cars and old polluting engins
The max speed of that taxi is 35kmph
I didn't get it why they are banning it?
About time
so only Kolkata is left with it's glorious tramways and yellow taxis now in the country!
Only true Mumbaikars have observed paddle shift in these taxis
Nana Patekar drove John Abarham around Mumbai in this Taxi
It will be good if you add voice to your videos
Santro/i10 as Kaali peeli rules the roads of Mumbai now
santro is also sooo old
Sams in kolkata for yellow taxi
Taxi no. 9211 🥺🥺😭😭😭
Best convert them into electric or CNG
Paisa nikal.
Nice
same with Kolkata's just peeli ambassador taxis, they're dying out
What an hidden cameo by Rahul Gandhi's own taxi 0:30
Sad i pray those taxi drivers get better opportunities
Kolkata Taxi will remain for ever Even it's the century where people people prefer Ola,Uber
! prefer ambassador and this than the new white cabs.
0:37 it looks like the face of an old man wearing the signature Gandhi spectacles.
No mumbai shud not end these taxis and old buses...its like those london taxi and bus trend....
Just paint the new generation of taxis kaali-peeli. Oka and Uber. Simple
Hope this reduces air pollution
Anyone knows which music track is used in the video??
Dimoné - Les Narcisses
@@eclair6604 thanks a lot...
What...not even kaali peeli santros are allowed??
😢😢
Kaali peeli drivers were much sober and safe than that of Ola,Uber cab drivers
😳tell me u were joking.
Will the drivers get new taxis or what?
Nowadays I see a lot of i10 taxis in Mumbai
Saahh ! The heritage is gone
oo bhai sbka.akhri samai aata hai ek din sbko jana hai🙏🙏🙄
People's saying Mumbai for Mumbaikars.....
I say India for Indians..
I support CAA n NRC
So glad they are out. So shitty they were difficult to drive, high maintenance should have done it in 1995 only
😭😭😭😭😭
Why? Noooo
😢😢😢😢
I likea parmere car
