Bengaluru Man Forgets His Haldi Outfit, Instamart Delivers Kurta in Just 8 Minutes

Bengaluru: A Bengaluru man’s wedding preparations took a surprising twist when Swiggy Instamart stepped in to save the day just hours before his big event.

Ramnath Shenoy, the groom, shared his experience on X, describing how, just 36 hours before his wedding, he faced a Haldi morning crisis.

“Forgot my yellow kurta, family wrath loading... until Instamart saved the day with a Manyavar kurta in 8 minutes,” Ramnath Shenoy posted. The groom was able to quickly change into his new kurta, just 10 minutes after placing the order, much to the relief of his family.

He also added that this wasn't the only time Instamart saved the moment during his wedding festivities. "Then came the Haldi waterworks—soaked to the core, no backup undergarments. Instamart delivered a fresh pair in 10 minutes."

"At this rate, I might just add them to the invite list. Fingers crossed for no more surprises," Shenoy humorously tweeted.
