Valentine’s Day is dedicated to celebrating love and companionship with your special someone. To commemorate the day of love, various brands embraced social media to celebrate the day. Whether through funny content or engaging banter. brands took the opportunity to share love and connect with their customers.
Blinkit
Blinkit CEO Albinder Dhindsa in a humorous post, shared a screenshot from a purported chat between a customer named Manoj and Blinkit support. The conversation revealed the user's unconventional request for the delivery executive to include him in the delivery, as his girlfriend's parents wouldn’t allow her to step out on Valentine's Day. Blinkit amusingly declined the request, responding with a straightforward "sorry, we can't" in a post on the microblogging site X.

In another witty response to a Blinkit user who posted two videos showing the 'singles mode' and 'couples' mode on the delivery app, Dhindsa said, "Fun fact – the person who came up with the idea for Single mode is actually not single."

Reliance Jio
Reliance Jio picked a playful battle with Airtel on social media asking the customers of the rival telco not to ignore "red" flags in their relationship, dishing out the flirtatious 'call me' pick up line.
