This week’s Twitter battle between Ola’s Bhavish Aggarwal and comedian Kunal Kamra was pure entertainment. 🍿
It all started when Kamra shared a photo of dusty Ola Electric scooters at a dealership with the caption, “Do Indians deserve this?”
Bhavish, clearly not in the mood to take criticism, replied with a sarcastic clapback:
“Since you care so much, Kunal, come help us out! I’ll even pay more than your failed comedy career.” 🥶
Kamra hit back by calling him arrogant, to which Bhavish responded:
“Chot lagi? Dard hua? Come to our service center and show your audience how much you really care. I’ll pay you better than your flop shows.” 😂
The exchange quickly spiraled, leaving everyone on Twitter picking sides, with some finding Bhavish’s responses hilarious and others questioning whether a CEO should be getting into online brawls.
But here’s the thing - As one of India’s leading founders, engaging in a public brawl on Twitter with a comedian, known for his controversial remarks, doesn’t quite align with his persona.
It almost feels like Bhavish has always tried to walk in Elon Musk’s footsteps—not just with his ambitious work in the EV segment, or with the AI spinoff but also with his rowdy, no-effs given presence on social media.
Was it required? I don’t think so.
What’s your opinion on this?
