She poked fun at the rainy weather surge pricing with: "Inka product manager na top floor pe bhaagta hua jata hain, ki baadal aagaye chalo bhai baarish ka surge laga du."
And she didn't stop there¡ªSachdeva even took a playful jab at Zomato-owned Blinkit's CEO Albinder Dhindsa, saying, "Blinkit mujhe samaj nahi aata. Delivery jab banda koi kar raha hain.. toh pakdayega na wo khaana...toh handling (fee?) kaise matlab?"
