We leave for work at 8 AM in the morning, and the normal lunch hour is from 1PM to 2PM, and the food prepared in the morning will be not fresh at the time of lunch, so they pick the lunch around 11AM and deliver it to you and they bring back your tiffin home before you reach home.
How much do they charge man?
@@Typestyle its really cheap around 2000-2500 indian rupees per month..
Considering exchange rate of 70..
It's 30 to 33 dollars per month

@@palak.paneer_ ohkkk..
Pupun Jena its not only that. It’s convenient for the one ( mothers/wife) cooking as well. To cook everything by 8.30 is lot of work. It takes the load off them as well
Second reason is general Mumbai public already travel with a lot of load in crowded trains. Its one bag minus.
And Mumbai do have Macdonald's like services on every corner of the city and you can order food online also( like on UBER EATS) but we like to eat our homemade food.
Who can eat mc Donald's 6days a week😬😬😬? Surely many of Indians can't. And why should we. No food can't compete with home cooked food. It's healthy, you get lots of variety, it's fresh.
@@rohitchoudhary8100 True. Love to cook and love my home cooked, fresh food :P My health, my skin , my physique , everything got so much better since I strictly started sticking to only home cooked food.
@Ravi Kumar No, I like my homemade food over Macdonald's and KFC. And if you like Macdonald's and KFC more just try eating only these things in lunch for 1 month.
Hey guys i haven't eat any MacDonald or any other services til now i m 23 and i don't have any intention to fo that
Swiggy , ZOMATO walo ko mt bhool Bhai😂😂 bkwwas khana bhejne me unlog ka bhi hath hai
The Dabbawala is important for the following reasons-
1.Home cooked fresh food, because you eat healthy and less likely to fall sick.
2.Cheaper than eating from outside.
3.Many people have diet restictions, hence home food is the best solution.
4.Carrying the lunchbox to work and back can be quite tedious because of the size( 3 container unit) , time and distance to travel in public transport. Also it handicaps you if you have to visit other places, say to a client,a bar or a movie.
Hence, the Dabbawalas.
Mumbai maybe thickly crowded, but it has less covering area of 603 Sq KM, compared to any other metro city. Imagine the chaos specially in Delhi, which is 1709 sq KM area. It would be impossible to reach with lunch on time at your office.
@@vikassunny2012 let me help you with something buddy...dehli is UT and has whole of 1450sq km area in total whereas on other hand mumbai is a city comes under state named as maharashtra which has other major city aswell named as pune.. Now again mumbai has 3 type of mumbai... 3rd on progress.. Mumbai, navi mumbai than under 3rd mumbai we are living.. Dehli is UT which is combinable of state and city.. So if you are comparing state wise.. Maharashtra is way bigger than dehli..
And creates employment as well
Also the food is hot
I like American way , just make healthy sandwitch by yourself put in lunch box and warm at work in microway. These ppl are spoiled . These dabba wall must be smart ppl could have something better than generation in dabba bussiness which don’t pay well and get their children to education and become dabba wall . That’s a cruel system for spoiled ppl. Dabba wall children should have better opportunity than spoil , pot belly ppl. Who wAnts puff puri hot and pickle and 3 tiffin means a lot of food at day time cause obesity.
This service also provides opportunities to lot of homemakers to run a catering service at home. Serving single people who live in Mumbai without their families...
Giving people all sorts of lunch options.
In India, feeding someone is considered a Good Deed. M sure they take pride in der work.
The dabbawalas rock 🤘
Big fan of you Pooja ji,loved your work in Befikrey.
sochne mein aur karne mein bohot fark hai
I don't know if something like this exist in Pune. I am tired of eating office food. I would anyday prefer home cooked lunch by homemakers.

yup
We like homemade food better than outside food
So??
@@akhilmathew9431 so what?
That's the thing.
Home made food not only is the source of your energy but also a way to convey emotions from your loved ones who made that for you.
Rick is very true.. the Dabbawalas take pride in the delivery service
Most families make lunch at around 9-10AM, way after the person leaves home for work. The delivery service picks up the lunch, at around 11AM and delivers to you around exactly at lunchtime which is around 1PM-2PM. Then they come back and pickup your lunchbox and deliver it back to home, way before you reach home.
So why can't they just pack their own lunch and carry with them. It's because of multiple reasons. Firstly because of timing issues. Secondly the food you are getting is much fresh, and also in rush traffic of Mumbai it's a hassle to carry extra load. So it's much convenient for them just to get the Dabbawalas, and let them do the job. Also it's not that expensive.
Also everything works offline, all manual stuff. No tech, no app, nothing !!
They have an online portal now too
What you missed is that lunch is not prepared yet by the time they leave for office. Usually it is the wife or the mom preparing food at home. And there are few houses that send to not just family members but others who might be living alone or if no one stays at home.
Basically by the time you leave for office lunch is not prepared. So once done these guys deliver it.
Exactly!😀
*So here is the complete scenario*
1) In india for most cases husband goes to work while wife looks upon other households things including taking care of children's
2)There are many factors which affect timings of daily routine for example government release drinking water through water taps in morning, rush hour is in the morning, children's school and many things which makes difficult to prepare food in morning
3) mumbai is so crowded place and such a big city that it takes minimum 1 hour to reach workplace, sometimes 2 so one has to leave early as possible
4) people prefer to eat homemade food than outside, as street food has so many ingredients and masalas which is not good for health if you eat everyday, also cost reduced
5) so dabbawalas take your tiffin from home deliver it to you at your workplace and again return it back to home

Six sigma 😃😃 correction please
6 Sigma
People in Mumbai go to work early morning like leave home 7 am in morning so,house wife or mother's had to wake up at 5 am in morning daily so it's become inconvenient to mother's/wife to make food early. If they choose dabawala they have time till 10-11 am in morning so mother's/wife will have more time to make tasty food and even workman also able to take homemade tasty food
First of all, Indian meals take a long time to prepare. Plus, in India, home food is rated way above outside food. Additionally, people leave very early for work, and come home late. This is convenient for the people at home to finish their other daily chores and then cooking lunch.
There is a system called "community", that has worked way before " online" became a way of life
Why only in Mumbai though? Why not in Delhi for a question.
@@boonslang6689 Same as the difference between New York and Washington DC, I guess. Cos Mumbai is more professional, with a sense of punctuality, and work ethic. The Delhi ites would make the dabba walas wait, they wouldn't be regular. Getting such dedicated dabbawalas in such large numbers in Delhi would be a huge problem. Delhi has only now become a cosmopolitan city. Till the eighties it was a "babu"(clerical) town, teaming with govt officials and petty traders. Whereas Mumbai was developed from day one as a vibrant, thriving port city
@@smitas65 Hmm. But what Mumbai Uncles tell me, Mumbai is no more thr city everyone used to dream about once. My uncle told me that Mumbai development took a stagnation around mid 90s and only thing that has increased since then is the population which has turned once a beautiful city into a complete mess. I have been to Mumbai so many times and it's always crowded, people running everywhere, every place is crowded, every hotel, restaurant, station, terminal, stand, park ( i was surprised to see a rather underwhelming number of parks in the city and the overall greenery). Rains.. mmm.. What ideally should make any place even prettier, makes a city like Mumbai, a mess. Shayad kuch kiya hi nhi hai municipality ne britishers k jane k baad se. Delhi ka b yahi haal hone wala hai aane wale kuch saalo me. Abhi fir b lafi better hai Mumbai se in terms of cost of living and facilities but aane wala time kafi khrab hoga unless govt decides to do something extra. Mumbai used to look so good in 60s movies. Kitna sundar lagta tha. Kisi ki muskurahato pe ho nisaar songs for eg. Ab to kuch aur hi lagta hai. Mumbai govt should do something about it. Shahar ko shahar hona chahiye yaar, chintio ki bambi nhi.
@@boonslang6689 Your Uncles are right. Mumbai is more of an urban slum now. It's civic amenities have collapsed. Municipality bhi kitna karegi? The number of persons arriving in search of work there every day is phenomenal. But the surprising thing is that they all do find work. It's a city that rewards the gritty. And then they never leave. Despite all it's almost non existent infrastructure, it's still a big draw for people in the country to earn a living. But it's only good for that. Not for spending one's later years there. Original people of Mumbai from the 30s 40s 50s etc have either migrated abroad (like your family) or to other parts of the country (mostly Pune). In Mumbai, development is restricted also because of lack of space.
On the other hand, Delhi has scope for improvement precisely because of space. Although Gurgaon us a mess, the new sectors of Noida and Greater Noida have been well planned. But the gentry there is another matter altogether.
Infratructure wise, woh purana Mumbai toh ab sirf filmon mein reh gaya hai. Par phir bhi, Mumbaikar aur Delhi ite mein ek fark hai. Soch ka. Woh badalne mein bahut saal lag jaaenge .....
@@boonslang6689 Delhi is going for a makeover very soon.

The Dabbawalas have received the ‘6 sigma award!’
Wow
Devavrat Mehta may I know what is a sigma award please?
Uma Devi K
Six Sigma is a disciplined, statistical-based, data-driven approach and continuous improvement methodology for eliminating defects in a product, process or service. ... Six Sigma can also be thought of as a measure of process performance, with Six Sigma being the goal, based on the defects per million.
You may search the rest at your will! :)
Very few companies in the world ,have this award.
Devavrat Mehta Thank you so much for the info. See ... life I a continuous learning process. I learnt something new today and made a friend ... thank you friend. 👍
I liked your question of why its not implemented in other cities. This has mostly to do with the culture and pride as you rightly pointed. The dabbawalas here belong to a certain faction who have made it their life;s work and family occupation. So, it is a tradition and difficult for regular people to join this organisation. If you join, you have to put in loads of hours and pledge your money (kind of how modern employees own part of the company shares) So that you put your best efforts to succeed.
Also, since it has become a proud tradition for these dabbawalas. they work cheap and with a lot of heart. To replicate a similar people and system in say a Delhi would cost 3-4 times more which will make this venture not so generous and more like some corporate entity. Hence. these institution is not so ambitious about profit than to keep a proud tradition and culture of the city dabbawalas and hence not branched out.

@@pritambiswas1000 I,ve requested Rick on Insta... They actually prefers requests with High number of likes to confirm the popularity of the video, After all, it's youtube, the final goal is the 'views'
In Mumbai, travelling hrs are prblm..to reach office at 9 u have to start around 6-7...and it's difficult to prepare food that early...like u have to start preparation around 4:30 to 5:00 same goes for evening.hence as Rick assumed...lunch box comes home before u
Also people who live alone...there are many tiffin services that provide food(that explains taking back tiffin)
And u know we Indians like to eat home made food....we like fast food also..like McDonald but once or twice in month..can't eat daily
U can watch a documentary about this service on net geo
I never skip intro..coz it's different in every video..
1. Mumbai local trains is most common commutation for jobs. They are so crowded it is very difficult to carry your lunch box.
2. Your wife or mon need not hurry pack your lunch at say 7.30 am. They can hand over the lunch at 11.00 am. So you get it fresh and your loved ones need not wake up so early.
3. We prefer home cooked food
0.1% of mistake dabbawala done was in movie Lunchbox
Lol
🤣🤣🤣 good one
0.01% bro 😅
I was thinking the same
We make all are meals at home. Mc/Domino's is a monthly or weekly thing.
It's not the money it's tasty homemade fresh food.
Never miss the Intro.. 😂😂
Dabbawalas have won many awards. Prince Charles met them in his trip to Mumbai. And so did many other dignitaries to have photo op with them
And Prince Charles invited them to his second marriage

I love your new logo. Working people go to their office very early. Somebody at home cooks the fresh food and sends it to them to through the dabbawalas.Mumbai is huge so no one has time to travel so many times for lunch. It's kinda like courrier service of home food in a way....for single people, there are people(entrepreneurs or work at home wives) who take money and make them home food and send it through dabbawalas.
rick is trying to learn hindi..... he repeats words ❤️
👏❤THE DABBAWALAS IS AN INSTITUTION❤👏
"Why don't carry my own lunch with me??"
Ok, for me, my reason is, I leave for work at around 7 in the morning, which means I've to get up at around 6 in the morning, and to cook lunch, I may have to get up at around 5 in the morning, which is too much fatigue for me. So my aunt, who leaves nearby makes me my lunch, and she starts cooking at around 9am, for me and my uncle simultaneously, so the dabbawallas pick up my lunch at around 11am and then picks my empty lunchbox again at around 3.30 pm after I finish my food and deliver it to my aunt again.
PS. I don't know about The States but here in India, most people don't like eating food outside in MacD or KFC or BurgerKing or Subway every single day of their life, we prefer home cooked food.
Lunch in India doesn't mean a sandwich
Lunch in India means Rice, Lentils, Flat breads, vegetables probably dry and gravy 2 types, and salads
And preparing these many things in morning takes time.
That's why lunch is prepared and sent over later.
For single ppl there are services that provides these homemade lunches as a business operated from their homes.

The Best ingredient to make food tasty and healthy is-- “ LOVE “
this you get only in home made food and not in just another random restaurant!!
we indians are driven by emotions...and we respect those emotions!!
I still have the same questions what u had...even though i know about this service since years...
Grt respect for DABBAWALAS of Mumbai...
Bhai local me khade rehne ki jageh nahi hoti. Dabba kaha rakhe
Indians have also started following the American lifestyle now and order food from delivery apps. We also have McDonalds at more than every corner. However, nothing can make up for eating a hot home cooked meal.
Every day new intro..loved it😀😀😀...love you OSR❤❤👍🏻
These type of great people, service providers, dedication, hardwork, and sense of pride in contributing in some way or another, all over India is what makes our country great and incredible. These people don't get greatly paid, since we are a developing country, people's lifestyle and economy, etc but i have immense respect for them, because these are ignored and subtle underlying reasons that has made India to grow about what it is today given the difficulties, diversity, differences that brings responsibilities with it with a huge population starting from when we were left stunted after invasions, colonization. So i love everyone in my country which in any way selflessly serving the society. Lets make our country more and more beautiful and better.
Korbin: like my uber driver messes up!

Rick: yeah
Idk why I loved that part so much! 😂😂
Rick and Korbin,
Giving food is the greatest gift or charity one can give. Food = Survival. The Dubbawalas see it as a religious obligation. Due to the heat everyday and lack of refrigeration over the last 125 years, food spoils quickly. The Dubbawalas can get fresh cooked food to you at work in less than 2 hours, it is still warm from the kitchen. The cost is around $15 - 30 per month. They pick the up the empty and take it back to your home for you because, what happens if you forget your tiffin (lunchbox) at work? Home-cooked not only tastes better, but quality is assured and made from scratch at home is cheaper than store bought.
It's not your fault that you don't understand about this service. This video is crap. Somebody please suggest a better video if you know
The discover Chanel or BBC has made a documentary on dubba Walla's of Mumbai
Will give detail information about the coding system and other details as well
The Discovery channel or I guess BBC has made a documentary on dubba Walla's of Mumbai
Which will give more precise information about the coding system they use and the other information as well
Must watch
There is a tedx video presented by the dabawala... Please do watch that..
This is how it works - you keep two lunch boxes, the Dabbawala goes to your home, picks up your lunch (family gets ample time to make it), brings it to your work, takes back the empty one from the previous day (you keep it cleaned and washed after having lunch). Some people do prefer to carry home their lunch boxes (and use only one set) but while traveling in crowded Mumbai public transport it is always preferable to have one less baggage.
You need to see a similar video about Mumbai local train travel to understand why they don't take the lunch box home. Basically it's so crowded that you can't carry the box!
Yep, Rick nailed it. In India, we almost always eat freshly cooked food, even if one's extremely poor, you'd find then having hot and fresh food, plus if its homemade, that makes it much better. Since its cost effective and made with hygiene and care.
You can just get the prepared tiffin delivered from your residence to your office (one side) as well as drop empty tiffin back to your residence (to & fro service). Cost for this would be approximately Rs. 600/- per month that's barely less than 9$ per month.
P.S- Rick - love the shirt !
Rick that's great you understood the sentiment and importance of home food in Indian society. It's an emotion connected between mothers,wives hand cooked food in family. And also many people from different ethnic groups some are veg and non-vegtarians,some don't eat onion and garlic like tubers that are grown under soil in JAINISM RELIGION.
It's a miracle when it started.
Dear OSR, can you please upload more videos, because I've watched all your videos twice-thrice.
Many mumbaikars leave for work very early in the morning. This service was started long ago! A house wife with small children find it convenient to just prepare the lunch leisurely and send it office. Now a days in city like Bangalore ,many house wifes who r good cooks ,offer their services who ever wants " homely food" through apps. Many bachelors who r away from home r their customers. In big cities in India food is not at all a problem.
Indians value home cooked food more than anything... mcD or whatever... it's love from your family
M using this ....😊...since 20 yrs...no issues ever
Sometimes it took 1-2 hr to reach ur work place, so ifu have office starting at 9 u hv to leave before 7.
Lunch boxes are bit more bulky and have to be carried carefully. With the rush in Mumbai Trains during office hours you need least amount of stuff with you to get on the train. So they deliver the lunchboxes during non-peak hours.
Originally the idea of this system was that you leave for work at early morning (with less baggage ) and your mom/wife cooks and sends fresh food which reaches you by lunch time. Now a days it is also a business where people (mainly women) cook the food they eat in a bit larger quantities and so are also sending good food for 10-15 people and earning bit of money.

An Indian is a celebrity, and lives like one!
Yes, the dabbawallas deliver dabbas both from home and from homemade food services which aren't necessarily from restaurant. Women who are entrepreneurs may make these dabbas
1. It's like mom/cook ll make good food taking his/her own time ..n there will be no high time gap between preparation n consuming.
2. No worries of carrying tiffin while traveling.
3. Good food ..good life
We too have McDonalds, KFC, Dominos, Subway, etc. at every corner😑😑😑
Also UberEats and everything.
But we like our body, heart, and health.😀
In the film Lunchbox, Irfan gets his food delivered from a tiffin service. Tiffin service are kitchens that make homelike traditional Indian lunch & dinner called “Thali” for someone living alone. A typical thali can cost from less than a dollar to 10 dollars or more.
We have many food delivery apps like swiggy nd zomato nd they can bring us food from restros....but for us nothing can replace homemade food... actually we can't eat restro food everyday , nobody likes it for everyday we usually get bored ..
Not just offices but in schools also parents and their grandparents bring lunchboxes right before the break.
Hey that's pretty good! 😍
Sometimes people leave at 6 am to go to work...dabbawalas get you fresh warm food in afternoon and get your tiffins back before you reach home. Healthy wholesome home cooked food that majority middle class families will prefer and afford!
React to “CHURRI” short film 👍🏻🙏🏻❤️
Agreed with what everyone says:
1. We do have resteraunts - both fast food and regular on every corner but we love home made food.
2. Indian food takes way longer to prepare and if people go to work early, it is difficult to prepare it on time. Also this way the food is delivered fresh just in time for lunch.
3. Either a family member or a cook usually prepares the food. It is common in India to have cooks as well. Labor in India is cheap.
4. It is Six Sigma certified and a case study was done on this by Harvard.
5. While I don't know the exact cost, it is very reasonable.

I can watch your videos with my family ( my conservative family 🤫)and every one loves you mates. You guys are pure entertainment. Thank you n God bless.
I think it's time Rick & Korbin started reacting to Karl Rock's videos
Korbin, this is how the system works - The numbers and codes are based upon the area. So they have a code for where the Dabba is collected from, then there is a code for what is the nearest train station they need to take the dabba to and the third code is for the place it is meant to go to (the building address or which ever place they drop the food). In case there are 2 trains they have to change to drop the dabba they will have that changed line as 3rd code and destination as the 4th code.
Video loaded 2 minutes ago, and already has 15 comments! You guys have arrived, for sure 😅😅
They have 2 services, if you don't want the tiffin to be delivered back then it costs less. I was a user and used to send tiffin to my husband . It coated us 1000 rs which is around 20 dollars. Another unique feature is that most of these workers hail from a place called Rajguru Nagar in Maharashtra. And most of them take planned holidays which are informed in writing a year in advance. They also have a benefits package and are paid bonus for Diwali
Our stupid reaction please watch Arijit Singh kalank title song please
A few things you had trouble with:
1. These are co-operative businesses, which means the business is owned by the collective (like the dabbawala association) rather than a few individuals, but there will be CEOs etc for the executive. Such businesses are not necessarily looking to expand to the whole world, and are focused more on delivering value in what they do. (India has many such businesses like Amul for milk/milk based products, L&T for infrastructure construction and even many banks)
2. In Mumbai depending on where you live and where you work/study you might have to leave anywhere between 5-8am from home, and food at home is typically prepared around 10-11am since there will be kids that need to be sent to school etc. etc.
3. Indians place a premium on freshly prepared, hot, home food. Lunch prepared at 7am and heated in the microwave is really not food or life, eating out everyday is not life and definitely not good for health. Cold food is not food unless it is icecream.
4. Many homemakers use the service to run a small food catering service to bachelors like Irrfan in the movie, were they get homemade food and these people earn a little income on the side.
5. It will cost anywhere between Rs.600-1000 or so per month.
6. Since people travel by public transport (local trains, buses) or two wheelers a lot, it is very inconvenient to carry the lunchbox as an extra luggage. In mumbai you wouln't travel large distances in a car unless you don't care about when you reach.
Guys please react to mamangam teaser and jallikattu trailer
Homemade indian food tastes good when served immediately, that is the reason why ppl dont carry food at morning. Many school children too have autowala delivering lunch during lunchtime
Can anyone tell me how much this service cost per month? Just curious
$15 - 30/month +-
Hey Rick you guys are quite right on the food part.....in Mumbai people live far from work place so they cannot carry lunchboxes so early, given the crowded trains of Mumbai it's convenient to have lunch boxes delivered..... primarily because we love our home cooked food that's fresh and hot......eating out is not our thing so as much as possible we would eat home cooked food that stays warm. Sometimes we do carry our lunch boxes but this is one of the convenient ways. I used to use this system when I was single :)
Plz react to AIB ft. Ranbir kapoor🙏
Come-on guys it was ranbir's birthday yesterday😶
Fun fact for you guys : When Prince Charles visited India He saw the Dabbawala System and was extremely impressed. He called representatives of Dabbawalas as guest for his wedding. There is a famous story in a book on dabbawalas that the hotel in which they were staying in London has only other indian guest called Mr. Amitabh Bacchan. There was no invitation to him for wedding but the dabbawals were invited.
It works in Mumbai and not in Delhi cos Mumbaikars are more efficient, punctual and professional. Delhi ites are lazy, and would never be able to stick to time
It's more of a cultural thing. They take pride in their work and it's cheap. You have small services in Delhi too but will never be as cheap as this.
Rick it costs around 800 to 1000 rs roughly 20 dollars a month. Indian's love home made food in general. You do get kfc McDonald's etc at all places
The dabba service costs around 600 to 1000 rupees which is equivalent to 8 to 13 usd per month
people who live alone (like Irfan's character in Lunchbox) order from restaurants on monthly basis. These restaurants also take services of Dabbawalas to deliver the food to their clients. This was also shown in the movie.
Basically, many stay away from their home for work or study. And not everyone is interested in cooking. So, in India we register for a monthly 'lunch box' which are made by home makers who are entrepreneurs(selling their home made food) to college students or working people.
It takes almost 2 hours to drive to office in traffic. So early the better, the lady of the house wakes up at 5 am, prepare breakfast for big family and get the kids ready for school, wash all plates, get ready for work. They go to bed late night at 11 may be. So we don't prefer them to get up at 4 and prepare lunch as well. It's not two but sometimes for ten they have to prepare.
