An individual wrote, “Zomato is acing the marketing game and giving me goosebumps at the same time.”

A second said, “This is a much needed change.”

“How cool. Empowerment looks different for all,” said a third.

A fourth commented, “Has to be one of the most heartwarming videos I've watched in a long time.”

“Amazing! Also, please consider offering better essential options too. Look at delivery partners in other nations with comprehensive safety measures and riding equipment. At least body cams, at the very least, can help their security,” posted a fifth.

A sixth shared, “I've seen women in restaurants in Kochi who skip the uniform and wear a saree because they're not comfortable with Western wear. It makes them look like they're not equal to the rest of the staff. I'm glad @zomato found a good solution for them. It's a win-win. Cheers, team!”
