  • Swiggy delivers over 3 lakh biryani orders, pizzas and khichdis on New Year's eve

    05 November 2024

    For food delivery apps, New Year's Eve meant a huge influx of orders. Many used Swiggy and Zomato to spice up their celebrations, either at house parties or quiet dinners at home. Swiggy delivered over 3 lakh biryani orders and 61,000 pizzas by 10.25 PM on December 31. Thousands of orders for nachos and soda were placed. However, it appears that many others chose to eat healthier and simpler on New Year's Eve, turning to the comforting "khichdi" (rice and lentils) – a staple in both sickness and health. Swiggy reported that 12,344 people ordered khichdi on New Year's Eve across the country. According to a Twitter poll conducted by Swiggy, Hyderabadi Biryani received 75.4 per cent of orders, followed by Lucknowi Biryani at 14.2 per cent and Kolkata Biryani at 10.4 per cent. "Let this fact be a gentle reminder that no matter what, some things will always feel like home," they said. Condoms were popular on Swiggy's grocery service Instamart. They had delivered 2,757 packets as of Saturday 9:30 pm and it asked customers to order 4,212 more so that it could say "nice" and have "6969" packets.
