Kunal Kamra Takes a Dig at Zomato—What Sparked His Latest Criticism?
Comedian Kunal Kamra has once again taken a jab at Zomato, criticizing the company over its recent post about delivery partners. This comes months after Kamra had slammed Zomato Founder & CEO Deepinder Goyal over the platform’s Guinness World Record achievement.
What Did Zomato Post?
Zomato shared a message aimed at customers who don’t rate their delivery executives, stating:
“Some people skip giving ratings to delivery partners, the same people get upset when their work does not get recognition.”
The post was seemingly an attempt to encourage customers to acknowledge and appreciate their delivery partners, but it didn’t sit well with Kunal Kamra.
Kunal Kamra’s Reaction
Reposting Zomato’s message on X (formerly Twitter), Kamra took a sarcastic swipe at the company, stating:
“Some people skip giving minimum wage & social security, same people get upset when they are sent to prison.”
His remark was a direct criticism of Zomato’s employment policies, implying that the company focuses on public image rather than ensuring fair wages and social security for its delivery personnel.
How Did Social Media React?
The debate quickly escalated, with social media users divided over Kamra’s response. While some sided with the comedian, others defended Zomato and Deepinder Goyal.
Here’s what some users had to say:
- “Kunal Kamra can hire people and not just give minimum wage but 3x of it. After all, minimum is minimum for a reason and is not maximum. Will he do it or just keep tweeting against those providing work and jobs to others?”
- “Zomato is right. They are at least creating jobs and helping thousands of people earn a living.”
- “Some people skip doing comedy in a comedy show, same people get upset when people abuse them.”
- “At least they are giving work which is feeding so many people. They have created more value in this world than you!”
Kunal Kamra vs. Zomato—A Continuing Feud?
This isn’t the first time Kamra has clashed with Zomato and its CEO. Earlier, he had criticized Deepinder Goyal’s celebration of Zomato’s Guinness World Record for the most food deliveries made in a day, calling out the company’s labor policies.
As this latest exchange gains traction, the debate over fair wages and gig worker rights in India continues to be a hot topic. Will Zomato respond to Kamra’s criticism? Or will this remain another heated social media battle?
