Petrol pumps closure: Zomato delivery agent rides a horse to drop off food in Hyderabad
This unique delivery method went viral after a short clip was shared on the internet. This clip is said to be from Hyderabad
Hyderabad: Never did Syed Farooq, in his dreams, imagined that his seriousness towards his ‘food delivery work’ would win him such laurels and fame.
On Tuesday, Farooq, a resident of Chanchalguda, astride a horse with a Zomato bag, was on way to deliver a food parcel when people filmed him and shared the videos on social media platforms. Soon it went viral all over the social media as the fuel stations in the city were shut down due to fuel shortage owing to truckers strike.
“I had to login to maintain my schedule so after unsuccessfully trying to get petrol at any of the pumps around Chanchalguda I preferred to resort to delivering the food parcel on horseback,” Farooq told ‘Telangana Today’.
Farooq, who got married eight months ago, stays at Chanchalguda along with his family. “I worked as a car driver and later switched over to a food delivery job. I never imagined I would become so famous. I am really excited about the fact that people appreciated my devotion to work,” he said.
The horse belongs to a close friend who stays near the house of Farooq. “I learnt horse riding long ago and occasionally move around on it. So my friend advised me to take the horse and complete my tasks,” said Farooq.
The video has sparked a wave of admiration on social media platforms, with netizens applauding the dedication and creativity displayed by the Zomato delivery agent.
