Food forms an integral part of nearly every occasion. Whether it is a birthday party cake or a royal feast at weddings, somehow food always becomes vital to our milestone moments. There are several customs involving food that are integrated into these special days such as the practice of feeding 'Dahi Shakkar' or sweet curd to a loved one. This is done as a symbol of good luck and blessings before any event of monumental importance. Many times, we see mothers serving a spoonful of the creamy treat to children going for examinations, or even to adults going for job interviews. Food delivery application Zomato recently offered Dahi Shakkar to digital payments application Paytm on the occasion of their Initial Public Offering (IPO). Take a look at their tweet:
dear @paytm, wishing you the best of luck for today!
if you need some dahi shakkar for good luck, ice cream for the stress, or some sweets for celebrations (wink wink) we are right here! ????— zomato (@zomato) November 8, 2021
