The apology note reads, "Hey! Thanks for this. I respect the work that you do, & it wouldn't be right for me to contest any of the points you've raised." "I promise you the intent of the video came from a good place, the purpose was to celebrate & appreciate what delivery partners do, infact that's how the video ends- it emphasises on how much easier they make our lives," he added. Sait concluded his apology, "Please accept my apology, I've taken the material down from all my social handles. Thank you."

In the open letter, the Twitter user described the things he goes through in a day while delivering the food orders. He highlighted that the video appeared to be "fake and scripted." Sharing the open letter, the Twitter user wrote, "This is my letter to @DanishSait who may or may not be bothered. After having thought about it, I'm assuming ignorance on his part rather than malice. If he has any decency left, he will know where he's gone wrong. That's it. Not expecting anything more from his ilk." Even though, Sait has taken down the video from his social media handles, it continues to exist on Zomato's official YouTube handle. This is my letter to @DanishSait who may or may not be bothered. After having thought about it, I'm assuming ignorance on his part rather than malice. If he has any decency left, he will know where he's gone wrong. That's it. Not expecting anything more from his ilk. pic.twitter.com/92qeeKBL53 — Delivery Bhoy (@DeliveryBhoy) August 17, 2021 IMAGE: DANISH SAIT'S INSTAGRAM
