A recent internship listing offering just ₹10 per month in Mumbai has gone viral, sparking laughter, memes, and a wave of online reactions.
Shared on Naukri.com, the listing was for a backend developer intern at Falcon Labs. At first glance, the role seemed normal, until people noticed the stipend: ₹10 per month. That’s barely enough for a cutting chai.

Despite the absurd pay, over 1,900 people applied for the role. It was a mix of shock and comedy. One user joked, “Even beggars earn more, LMAO,” while another said, “₹10? Bro, that’s my momos sorted.” Someone else called it “better than unpaid.”
The listing quickly became a meme magnet. Social media was filled with clips from Kaun Banega Crorepati, Phir Hera Pheri, and other popular desi references.
