🔴 Negative Reactions: Skepticism, Pricing & Gimmick Concerns

— @finance_facts_101
2. “Is This Just Hype?”
“Will the tea taste the same without Dolly’s drama? If not, then what are you even selling?”
— @its_purelogic
3. “Pricing Too High for a Tapri Experience”

Dolly Chaiwala, the man behind India’s most viral tea cart, just launched a nationwide franchise—offering models from ₹4.5L carts to ₹43L cafés.
This is more than just tea—it’s a lesson in personal branding, scale, and grassroots entrepreneurship.
Would you invest in a “tapri with attitude”?
