If any country in this world has mastery over 'Jugaad' or can pull of wonders from least available resources, it’ll be India for sure. Obesh Komirisetty, a Hyderabad boy who was stuck at 11:50 pm on road and found no auto/bike or affordable taxis available to reach home, did something which has got him enormous popularity. With a clear plan in mind, the boy ordered food from Zomato. As soon as the delivery boy came near restaurant to pick Obesh's order, he asked the Zomato guy to 'deliver' him with his order to his room.
In a Facebook post, he explains-
“It was around 11.50 pm, I am at Inorbit Mall road and looking for an auto but couldn’t find anything to reach my room. So I opened Uber app but ride fares were high it’s around 300 Rs and also I am little hungry. I just opened Zomato and searched for food shops around me, I found one Dosa Bandi near me and ordered Egg Dosa. The delivery boy came and he was going to pickup my order at Dosa Bandi. So I called him and said this is my order, I asked him to drop me in the delivery location(My Room Address). So he dropped me along with order at my room. And he asked me ‘Sir please give 5 star rating’. I said OK.
Thanks to Zomato for the free ride (sic).”
Obesh also took to Twitter to share the same incident.
After Obesh reached home, the delivery boy requested to give 5 star rating which he readily accepted.
Zomato too was equally hilarious in its response, as it replied,
