In a country where food delivery agents are often spotted weaving through chaotic traffic or racing against the clock to ensure timely deliveries, a new video has stunned the internet, not for delays or mishaps, but for something entirely unexpected. A Zomato delivery partner has gone viral for his breathtaking biking skills, reminiscent of a professional motorcycle racer.
In the video, the biker is seen swooshing his bike around the lanes of what looks like an isolated hill road, riding like a professional racer.
The video was originally shared by account ‘adrenalinee.junkies’ and the creator is @tanmayarnav. The video was later reposted by @aas_sthaa on X, on May 26th, with the caption, “Born to be a Rider, Forced to be a delivery boy!!”. The video has gained 191.7 thousand views.
Many users were captivated by this Zomato delivery guy’s biking skills. One user commented, “Bro is loving his job.”
Another user wrote, “Delivery boy on fire.”
One user commented on the impact of his riding on the food ordered: “Ordered cake, received halwa.”
This is not the first time a Zomato delivery partner has gone viral. Last year, a delivery agent earned praise for delivering orders during Diwali, braving festive traffic and tight schedules.
More recently, a Zomato partner in Pune touched hearts across social media after he went the extra mile literally to deliver missing food items from a customer’s order. Despite living with partial paralysis, he made the trip without hesitation and even refused to accept a tip for his effort. The story was shared on LinkedIn by Pune-based entrepreneur Shripal Gandhi and quickly went viral.
Even the company’s leadership has shown a hands-on approach to understanding the delivery ecosystem. Last year, Zomato co-founder and CEO Deepinder Goyal took to the streets of Gurgaon as a delivery partner. Accompanied by his wife, Gia Goyal (formerly Grecia Munoz), he delivered food on a bike, aiming to gain firsthand insight into the everyday challenges faced by Zomato’s delivery partners.
