In an Instagram video posted on September 9th, he garnered over 2 lakh views since then, criticizing Gurgaan's extreme heat, winter cold, flooding, heavy smog, and potential for air quality to drop to hazardous levels. Hashir also deemed Gurgaan, along with Delhi, Faridabad, Ghaziabad, and Noida, as \"the five sisters of agony and despair.\" He expressed sympathy for Gurgaan residents but voiced doubts about whether conditions would improve. The video drew varied reactions, with some users sharing similar experiences of depression and loss of appetite in Gurgaan, while others defended the city or defended North Indians' preference for its proximity to their hometowns.",
