Blinkit made an exciting announcement on Friday, revealing that it would be delivering the brand-new PlayStation 5 Slim edition within just 10 minutes. This rapid delivery service will cover customers in Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, and Bengaluru through a partnership with Sony. However, amidst this buzz, an unusual request from a customer sparked laughter across the internet. In a screenshot shared by Blinkit, the customer made a playful demand for a play date with the delivery agent as a condition for purchasing the PlayStation 5 through the app.

The customer contacted the customer care executive with their quirky request, stating, “Bro, listen…I will buy PS5 from you only on one condition.”

When asked about the condition, the customer replied, "Only if the rider stays back and plays FIFA with me. I need someone to practice to beat my friends later.”
