In what appears as an exemplary example of innovation in the face of a crisis, an Ola electric scooter was used to play music at a pre-wedding event.
An Instagram user named Saurav Rokade shared a clip of a woman performing on stage to live music and wrote how he and his friends arranged for an orange-coloured Ola electric scooter to play music when the function got disrupted due to a visit from the police!
The video was later shared on X by a user. “Ola scooter ke music system pe dance.
Desi jugaad at its best! True Power of Ola! Turning heads everywhere!”
Retweeting the post, Ola CEO Bhavish Aggarwal complimented Rokade and his gang for innovative ways of generating music and keeping the party going despite a disruption. The billionaire also expressed pride in how Ola cabs are becoming a mainstay of common life.
“4 baj gaye lekin party abhi bhi baaki hai! Haha.! Love how Ola scooters have become a part of our community celebrations across India! Way to go community, keep the creativity going!” wrote the tycoon.
However, some netizens poked fun at the post, saying that the common public is misusing the cab service in the name of innovation. “Imagine if lights were gone and Party mode activated on 4 scooters,” joked another.
Some users though heaped praise on Rokade and his group for the brilliant solution to an unforeseen crisis.
“This is just superb. Who thought that an EV could do all this. Technology has come a long way,” wrote another.
The official X handle of Ola Electric also gave a shout-out to Rokade. “India ki creativity ka kya kehna! Sangeet performance with Ola S1 on Party Mode. Our community just keeps surprising us!” they wrote.
