The video has since gone viral and the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation ordered sealing of the outlet.

The incident took place on Saturday when a group of four friends went to eat at the McDonald’s outlet.

In the video shared on Twitter, Bhargav Joshi said the dead lizard came on top after shaking the glass and taking two sips.

One of his friends in the now viral video claimed that they waited for over four hours but the staff at McDonald’s simply offered to refund the price of the soft drink – Rs 300. “A life is worth Rs 300?” another man from the group said.

The video has been watched over 2,400 times on Twitter.

“This is so disgusting! Lately, i have seen so many foods safety and hygiene issues happening. It feels like the staffs are becoming negligent and somewhere i feel being overburdened is the reason… Still, it is no excuse that food safety and hygiene be taken for granted,” a user wrote.

While another said, “Bravo Bhargav and your friends.”

Mr Joshi also posted the photo of the sealed outlet and thanked the civic body for taking prompt action. “Great work done by AMC,” he said in the tweet.
