To an outsider in Mumbai, Bangalore or Hyderabad, taking the bus is very difficult (Numbers in the non-arabic numerals, routes in the local script and all). This is my experience from a few years ago, so it might have changed since then. But of all the cities I've taken public transport in, Bangalore's buses are really frustrating.
