I see you're not familiar with Indian-English. What he said sounds quite "reasonable" (if not a bit unnecessarily, but understandably urgent) to someone like me (am Indian).
Downvoting folks aren't understanding the context.
Understandable is in the Indian context. Generally a lot of things in India are slow/delayed so it's pretty common for people to want everything "fast" (which is probably "regular speed" in the US etc). I agree the content is hardly urgent, but for an Indian everything is urgent.
It is not reasonable at all for "non-Indian" English -- still that would perhaps be a reasonable explanation, just he should learn it is not reasonable.
