Admiring the dabbawalas, Kapoor said, “Dabbawalas are not just the carriers of food, but also do the task of spreading joy and smiles. They are the ones who add true value to the food we cook.

Reacting to this initiative, a dabbawala said, “We the dabbawalas are highly motivated because we believe that delivering food to Mumbaikars is like a service to God, similar to giving medicine to the sick.”
