India, July 10 -- With commutes in Bengaluru stretching well beyond an hour for many residents, some are finding creative ways to reclaim their time, even from the backseat of a cab.

"Navigating Bengaluru's traffic has become progressively nerve-wracking and challenging," Joshi wrote. "But over time, I've developed some ways to turn this time-drain into a time-gain."
