“2023 stories ft. Asha,” the company wrote. The video opens with a text insert that reads, “Zomato said hi to its biggest chai fan”. The video then proceeds to show a fun skit of a woman and her love for tea - so much so that her world revolves around the beverage.

Towards the end of the clip, the reason behind such an unusual skit becomes clear. A message flashes across the screen to inform that though the woman in the video is an actor, the clip is created as an ode to a customer named Asha who ordered more than 1100 chai in 2023.

Take a look at this clip by Zomato:

The video was posted about six hours ago. Since then, the clip has accumulated nearly 1.4 lakh views. The share has also collected close to 14,000 likes. People posted varied comments while reacting to the video.
