Ind vs Pak: Zomato, Careem Pakistan engage in banter on Twitter
Zomato asks “mithayi lenge ya aansuo se pet bhar liya?” while wishing Diwali
New Delhi: Careem Pakistan and India food supply chain Zomato were engaged in multiple banters on the social media site Twitter during and after the much anticipated India vs Pakistan match on Sunday at the MCG.
Fans who enjoyed the match were then served some friendly banter by the official Twitter handles of the two companies.
Ahead of the match, Careem Pakistan took a dig at the Indian fans in a tweet reply to one of the Zomato tweets and asked the fans if they were ready for their pre-Diwali gift pointing to the defeat it will face during the match.
“We hope you guys are ready for your pre-Diwali gift (read defeat)” Careem replied to Zomato’s tweet.
Zomato on Monday replied to Careem’s dig and asked them if they would like sweets or if they had filled their stomachs with tears after their team’s defeat handed by India in the match.
“Diwali ki hardik shubhkamnaye mithayi lenge ya aansuo se pet bhar liya?” Zomato replied.
In another tweet, Zomato took a dig at the Pakistan fans following their defeat and wrote “dear pakistan, ordered a defeat? virat your service”. (We are at your service).
Replying to the tweet, Careem Pakistan added “We don’t have cheat days” supporting a wild claim by the Pakistan fans that India cheated to win the match with controversial decisions from the umpires.

Karnataka leads in AI: Minister Priyank Kharge at Impact Summit
Bengaluru (PTI): Minister Priyank Kharge on Wednesday highlighted the state’s leadership in AI and deep technology while engaging with global industry leaders and startups at a four-day summit held in New Delhi, officials said.
During the event, Priyank witnessed the signing of a strategic MoU between H Company and St John’s Medical College & Research Institute, Bengaluru, to pilot advanced enterprise AI for hospital operations and workflow automation, strengthening responsible AI in healthcare, the minister’s office said in a statement here.
Speaking on the sidelines of the India AI Impact Summit, the minister said Karnataka is ahead of the curve in AI.
“We are already home to leading global AI players such as Harvey AI and Anthropic, and The Walt Disney Company is expanding its AI network in Bengaluru,” he added.
Noting Bengaluru’s position among the top global cities for AI talent, he added, “Under our DeepTech Decade, we are supporting startups with grants of up to Rs 1 crore. We are engaging with global leaders and innovators to ensure responsible AI use, build the right skill sets, create strong incubators, and establish Centres of Excellence that can foster startups and strengthen e-governance.”
The minister also attended a roundtable organised by the US-India Business Council (USIBC), where discussions focused on strengthening technology collaboration, investment partnerships, and innovation-led growth between Karnataka and global enterprises.
He met Timo Harakka, Member of Parliament of Finland, to explore possibilities for collaboration between Karnataka and Finland in AI and deep-tech sectors, including joint research, innovation partnerships, and startup exchanges.
The Karnataka IT Minister also visited the Indian Army showcase at the summit, which featured advanced AI-driven defence and strategic technology applications, highlighting the role of AI in national security and modernisation efforts.
