Swiggy has collaborated with Universal Music India and Havas group to launch ‘Shukriya Kare’, a thank-you anthem for all delivery partners.

The delivery executives have been the warriors through this pandemic, helping and urging citizens to stay safe indoors. Swiggy launched this campaign to pay tribute to their heroic efforts amidst these challenging times.

In the midst of the COVID-19 outbreak and the nationwide lockdown, delivery partners have been tirelessly delivering essentials from food to groceries, medicines, or any other household essential at everyone’s doorsteps.

The lyrics of the song are written by Sahas Pareek and composed by M Ajay Vaas. Swiggy also extends the campaign's UGC leg, as the social media influencers featured in the campaign ask their followers to take a piece of paper and put a message on it saying “Thank You, Delivery Heroes. Stay Safe!” - and put it up on their doors and post it on social media platforms using the hashtag #ShukriyaDeliveryPartners.

The music video highlights the courage and selflessness of delivery partners and brings together an amalgamation of Indian singers such as Armaan Malik, Jasleen Royal, Lisa Mishra, and more, along with social media influencers like Awez Darbar, Nagma Mirajkar, and more appreciating the efforts put in by the delivery partners, who are risking their lives to provide us with comfort in the times of COVID-19.

“As the pandemic continues to impact communities around the world, people are uniting and helping each other now more than ever. Swiggy honors the dedication of all the delivery partners across the industry who have been risking their lives to offer convenience to consumers and enable them to stay indoors. This anthem is a token from Swiggy and all the supporting artists to cheer for the delivery partners and show them that their efforts are recognized and appreciated by all of us”, said Srivats TS, VP Marketing, Swiggy.

At Universal Music India we strive to use the healing power of music to support communities".

She adds, "And this partnership has been in line with our current efforts of supporting and cheering people - especially in these COVID times. Popular Indian artists and influencers have come together, to highlight the contribution of delivery executives and thank them for their selfless service. This is a wonderful initiative by Swiggy and with the anthem ‘Shukriya Kare’ we hope to spark a movement where people carry forward messages of gratitude for delivery partners who are helping citizens stay indoors and safe".
