Swiggy replied to the post and assured proper probe in the matter. Swiggy wrote, “Appreciate your patience. We’ve done a review & are lost in words for the encounter you’ve faced… We will be reaching out to you over a call & have this addressed accordingly”

However, in another tweet Srinivas made it clear that he didn’t really hold Swiggy responsible as much as the restaurant that cooked the food.

@p_ivaturi If you see the tweet I tagged both of them in the tweet I didn’t said it is swiggy’s responsibility I only copied what they certified on their app pic.twitter.com/ggKZzh5smg
