The dabbawalas - members of Mumbai Jevandabbe Vahatuk Mahamandal, biggest union of the community in the city - have tied up with 30 major wedding planners and caterers who will call on two helpline numbers and schedule a 'pick-up'.
You can also dial the numbers, +919867221310 and +918652760542, if you are left with excess food after your house party. The dabbawalas nearest to the location will collect it and distribute it among pavement dwellers, slum residents and anyone living below the breadline.
The deliverymen will work with the same speed and efficiency that has made them world famous.
