A user wrote, "Welcome to Kerala, India...where you see sights like a Gold #RollsRoyce #Taxi"

Another wrote, "I am more curious about how they must have fitted the meter inside? Poor RR."

"Bappi Lahiri's car?" asked another user.

"Really feel sorry for @RollsRoyceAsia @RollsRoyce brand. It has taken a beating after it produced a gold colour car that too with a taxi plate. Really don't know the compulsion that they had to sell a car to be used as a taxi," read one post.
