Uber partners with stand-up comedians to spread joy with Uber Auto

Uber has partnered with stand-up comedians Aakash Gupta, Prashasti Singh, and Aashish Solanki to share their one-liners in the form of banners on three-wheelers to make Uber Autos stand out on the roads.

The campaign, starting in Gurugram, aims to leverage Uber Autos to put smiles on the faces of the commuters in the city.

Uber is decorating 1,000 autos in the city with quotes from the three stand-up comedians that aims to make residents of the city have a good laugh as they make their way to their destinations.  

Ameya Velankar, Head of Marketing, Uber India and South Asia, said, "As a brand, Uber has always sought to create memorable moments for our customers by building brand love through unique campaigns that capture the spirit of Indian culture. This collaboration with India’s most loved stand-up comics is an example of that very intent, aiming to connect with more such resilient aspirers on the roads, and celebrate the iconic autos that are an inseparable part of Indian roads and culture." 

The one-liners and quotes curated by these comedians will be displayed on Uber Autos as part of the company’s initiative to create a unique experience for commuters, even if they are not in an Uber. 

As part of the launch of the campaign, Uber collaborated with Gupta to create an on-ground experience. The comedian interacted with the crowd at the Cyber Hub in Gurugram, and unveiled specially-decorated auto-rickshaws that are now available to be booked through the app.
