Resonating with the message, Zomato founder Deepinder Goyal writes, "This isn't an ad. It's a belief in effort over everything else. Every day, millions of Indians tap 'Place Order' on @zomato in between their routines, responsibilities and dreams. Some are building startups. Some are raising kids. Some are taking a break. Different stories, one thing in common: Consistent effort."
He adds, "We're not here to celebrate the stars, but the fire that built them. The fire each one of us carries inside, while food is just the fuel. To everyone chasing something they care deeply about and showing up for it - we're glad to be a small part of your journey."

Sophie Choudry On Celebs, Influencers Flooding Wimbledon: ‘Don't Let It Become Next Cannes'
Earlier, Sonam Kapoor praised the 'desification' of Wimbledon. Now, Sophie Choudry offers a different take, calling out celebs and influencers for showing up just to be seen. A number of Indian celebrities such as Priyanka Chopra, Sonam Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor, Urvashi Rautela, Jacqueline Fernandez, Neena Gupta, Avneet Kaur, Anushka Sharma and others flocked to Wimbledon 2025 from India.

She urged people not to turn the prestigious tournament into the 'next Cannes' and said that a lot of them are there just to be seen. Sophie Choudry took to her Instagram stories and wrote, 'Oh Lord. Please don't let Wimbledon become the next Cannes. I've been an avid tennis lover for more than 30years. Have literally shed tears of joy and pain over my favourites Sampras (a legit obsession at one time), Agassi, Nadal and now Alcaraz. Have scheduled watching matches between revising for school exams. Was fortunate enough to see the legend Martina Navratilova play in her last Wimbledon final amongst other epic matches before it was all about an insta post." She further added, 'But this year am suddenly seeing countless 'influencers", 'celebs" from India going there just to be seen. Am not denying that some genuinely love the game but many are there just to pose for social media. They have zero clue or interest in the game or those playing it. It's just Ughhh. Please let's not ruin one of the most beautiful tournaments in the world." Sonam Kapoor's Reaction To Indian Celebs At Wimbledon Meanwhile, Sonam Kapoor reacted to a post on Instagram shared by Diet Sabya, about the 'desification' at Wimbledon. She wrote, 'Love the captions! Indians everywhere! So good na?".
