"The delivery boy is playing Subway Surfers."
"I thought my delivery guy was being chased by a ghost (which was the intention apparently)."
"We are already scared of some prices. Why scare people, Swiggy, with that icon?"
"That is one Rakshas [monster] chasing Swiggy … Rakshas here is symbolic .. it signifies that Swiggy is chasing the delivery boy to ensure he reaches in time."
"Oh my God I laughed so much.. it's sooo funny."
