The chai stall is situated in Kolkata and is apparently very famous in the area. The man filming the process of the chai package was extremely impressed by the idea of packing hot tea. He even went ahead and called the whole process somewhat of a “ninja technique” a well-known nod to the Japanese cartoon ‘Ninja Hattori-Kun’.
People online were also impressed with the tea stall’s idea. One user was bewildered, “Yehi dekhna baki rehe gaya tha….jo bhi ho my home town. Love it till my last breathe.”
While another claimed that they had tried the tetra pack tea before, “I had it. Its hot for long time and nice kesaria tea.”
One user complained that the “Packaging appears costlier than the Tea” which might be a rational concern since chai in India is sold at quite affordable prices, especially if you buy it from a roadside stall.
One fellow was simply in awe of the idea which is rarely seen in operation at many tea stalls in India, “Very useful innovation,” wrote the user.
Another user complimented the idea and wrote, “Bhalo technique ache.”
