Hello everyone,

Recently, there’s been a buzz on social media suggesting that Dolly Chaiwala, a popular tea vendor from Nagpur, India, has been appointed as the brand ambassador for Microsoft’s Windows 11 or the upcoming Windows 12. Let’s set the record straight: this information is not accurate.

Origin of the Rumor:

The speculation seems to have originated from a satirical post by “The Bindu Times,” a parody account on Instagram known for its humorous content. The post humorously claimed that Dolly Chaiwala was named the brand ambassador for Windows 12. Many users, missing the satirical nature of the post, took it at face value, leading to widespread sharing and belief in the misinformation.

This video, titled “One Chai Please,” was part of Gates’ visit to India and showcased his appreciation for local culture. While the video is genuine, it does not indicate any official partnership between Microsoft and Dolly Chaiwala.
