Comedian-actor Kapil Sharma, who is awaiting the release of Zwigato, said that he understood the challenge of delivery executives. He shared that his character, a food delivery agent, had him realise how tough life is for delivery boys and that he has become more empathetic towards them.

He said, "I understood how difficult the struggles of delivery boys can be, especially after doing this film. I remember once when my wife Ginni had ordered a cake, it got spoiled during the delivery process. The delivery boy assured her that he would bring a new cake to replace it in 15 minutes. Ginni came to me and told me about this and after finding out about the same, I became hesitant and stopped the delivery boy from going back to get a new cake."

He added that sending the delivery boy back to bring a new cake may result in a deduction from his salary. "I was concerned that there might be a chance of his salary getting deducted if he did so. This movie made me realise the challenges that delivery boys face on a daily basis, and I have learned to appreciate their hard work and dedication even more. I am not saying tip them, but I am just saying that we can at least say a thank you with respect and that will make them happy." Produced by Applause Entertainment, Zwigato is directed by Nandita Das.
