Delhi Man Faces Moral Lecture from Delivery Agent for Ordering Chicken Before Diwali
A man in Delhi who ordered chicken biryani received unsolicited advice from the delivery person.
According to a post on Reddit, as soon as the delivery agent from Biryani Blues entered the one-time password to confirm the delivery, he expressed an unwelcome opinion about the customer’s meal choice.
“Bhaiya, listen, you are making a very wrong choice, this is not okay in our religion,” the delivery agent reportedly said. The surprised customer responded with a confused, “What happened, bhaiya?”
The delivery agent then recommended that he refrain from eating chicken or mutton until after Diwali, proposing that he opt for something “cleaner.”

The Redditor shared his reaction, mentioning that he was taken by surprise and felt a bit guilty despite his own food preferences. He mentioned that this incident dampened his mood and day, and he also felt anxious about whether the delivery person might have tampered with the food after the uncomfortable conversation.
The post quickly attracted attention and sparked a debate about the rising trend of “moral policing” in India, with users questioning the delivery agent’s behavior. One commenter remarked, “Why is he imposing his beliefs on you? He should just avoid delivering chicken!” Another expressed similar worries, stating, “This is one of my biggest fears about this type of moral policing.”
However, some users showed empathy towards the delivery executive, suggesting that his use of “bhaiya” implied he meant no disrespect. One commenter reminded the Redditor, “It’s your personal choice,” emphasizing that he has the right to eat what he likes.
Another suggested, “Just think of him as a really dumb person and move on.”
As festivals like Diwali approach, frustrations with unsolicited moral comments about lifestyle choices, especially those linked to religious customs, are increasing. Some see food practices as deeply personal, while others feel the need to share their beliefs.
