The ongoing social media war of words between stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra and Ola CEO Bhavish Aggarwal shows no signs of cooling down. Kamra has once again taken aim at the company, this time mocking its alleged practice of deploying bouncers at its service centers.
The latest salvo came after a user on X, R.J Kashyap, claimed that Ola has stationed “five to six” bouncers at their service centers. Kashyap’s post alleged that these bouncers were engaged in heated arguments with customers, including female customers, leading to a wave of online criticism.
Kamra, known for his sharp wit and no-holds-barred approach, reposted Kashyap’s tweet with a sarcastic remark, “Please can a journalist fact check this. If true this is truly unique -Sales team for sales & Bouncers for after sales.” This sparked further discussion, with another user adding videos and photos seemingly showing bouncers at Ola service centers, further fueling the controversy.
Kamra continued his attack, directly tagging Aggarwal and writing, “Hey @bhash, you’ve sold such an innovative Indian product that you’ve had to hire bouncers to protect the staff.”
Ola, despite the growing online storm, has remained silent on the matter. This isn’t the first time Kamra has publicly criticized Ola Electric. Last week, he slammed the company for its lack of transparency regarding customer complaints, stating that “Ola Electric hasn’t disclosed any plan to issue refunds or put an end date to current customer complaints.”
This ongoing public battle highlights the growing frustration among some customers with Ola Electric’s service and customer support. It remains to be seen how the company will respond to these allegations and the increasing public scrutiny surrounding their operations. Will Ola finally address the issues raised by Kamra and other customers, or will this become another chapter in the company’s ongoing saga of controversy?
