Blinkit Introduces Free Dhaniya Option Following User's Mother's Suggestion

In India, buying vegetables from a nearby sabzi mandi seems incomplete without the 'complimentary' dhaniya (coriander leaves) that comes along. Let's agree, most of you will resonate with this feeling! Taking a cue from the same, Blinkit has recently introduced the same practice to make the online delivery platform yet more relatable for all. You read that right! Blinkit CEO Albinder Dhindsa took to the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to announce the news, adding that they will polish the feature in the upcoming weeks.

"It's live! Everyone please thank Ankit's mom. We will polish the feature in next couple of weeks," he posted, along with a screenshot of a Blinkit cart, showing dhaniya being listed as 'free gift' along with the ordered vegetables.

The development came after an X user, named Ankit Sawant, shared his dismay in a post, mentioning that his mother was unhappy after having to pay for coriander leaves, along with the vegetables she ordered on Blinkit. Ankit further tagged Albinder Dhindsa on the post and shared his mother's idea of 'free dhaniya' on buying vegetables through the grocery delivery platform.
