An American expatriate residing in Bengaluru has become a sensation online after expressing her admiration for India’s remarkably quick late-night delivery services. Dana Marie, a content creator who frequently offers insights into her everyday life in India, recently posted a video on Instagram that struck a chord with many viewers.
In the video, Dana is shown joyfully eating a slice of cake. A message displayed on-screen reads, “One thing about India—you can get a whole cake dropped at your doorstep in less than 20 minutes at 11 o’clock at night.” Her genuine amazement is echoed in her caption, where she adds, “Not just cake… but also ice cream, coffee, a lone can of Coke, some cucumbers, even a pair of scissors. If you're in a large city, there’s barely anything you can’t get!”
The brief reel quickly gained traction, amassing more than 3.9 million views and generating a wave of enthusiastic responses. Social media users flocked to the comments to share their own amusing or extraordinary experiences with India’s late-night delivery ecosystem.
One commenter recalled, “I got an Aadhaar card photocopy at 2 in the morning in a small town.” Another highlighted the tech-savvy side of the service, noting, “I received a PS5 in 10 minutes—and groceries through the same app!”
One user summarized the sentiment best: “That’s India’s biggest blessing. Daily life here is so much simpler than in many other places.” Another echoed this, saying, “Honestly, I feel fortunate to call India home.”
The reactions kept pouring in. A particularly memorable one described an instance where someone ordered ₹4,000 worth of snacks and chocolates at night, and six delivery agents showed up. “They were all smiling—the weather was lovely,” the commenter wrote.
The stories ranged from the light-hearted to the truly impressive. “I’ve placed orders for ice cream and full meals at 3 am and 5 am—they arrived fresh and tasty,” said one. Another shared, “Just watched this after ordering soup at 2 am—totally relatable!”
One person recounted an urgent fix: “My ceiling fan gave out during the night, so I bought a table fan—and it arrived in ten minutes.” Yet another recalled, “I had an important presentation at 9 pm, my mouse stopped working at 8:45, and by 8:55, I had a new one in hand!”
Summing it up, a commenter wrote, “It’s shocking that such a system doesn’t exist in other parts of the world. Aren’t those supposed to be the so-called developed nations?”
