On Monday, Mumbai resident Irshad Daftari shared a sweet post on Twitter about his four-year-old son, Riaan, innocently messaging food delivery platform Zomato to ask for "cars" and "gifts". Riaan's mother, Neeti Daftari, told NDTV that he managed to get his hands on her phone to ask Zomato for cars, toys and numbered balloons, among other things.
Sharing a screenshot of the messages, Mr Daftari wrote: "In other news, my 4 year old son thinks that if he messages Zomato with his fav things, they might deliver them to him."

His tweet was widely circulated and made a lot of people smile at the four-year-old's innocence. It also caught Zomato's eye, who took some time off from delivering food to make the boy's wish come true.
Just one day later, Mr Daftari shared an update to say that Riaan received the "best surprise ever" along with a picture of his son playing with a new car. Ms Daftari told NDTV that Zomato delivered a remote-controlled car and a pizza to their family.
