If someone told you there’s a ₹25 note floating around in Delhi University right now, you’d probably laugh it off. But what if we told you that ₹25 is actually enough to get you across campus… multiple times in a day?

We decided to put this to the test.
After spotting that quirky ₹25 note around DU, we took it as a sign and set out on a mini food trail across North Campus using Uber’s ₹25 bike rides (for up to 3 km). Call it a ₹25 DU food crawl we didn’t see coming. Because honestly, DU + budget + food is a combo we’ll never say no to.
Stop 1: Tom Uncle’s Maggi – Because DU = Maggi Always
Our first ride? Just ₹25.
In a campus where even short e-rickshaw rides can add up (and take time in traffic), this felt like a shortcut.
We zipped through campus lanes and landed at Tom Uncle’s Maggi Point near Miranda House.
Think buttery, masaledaar Maggi that hits just right between classes.
Hot Maggi in hand, ₹25 spent on the ride… we were off to a strong start.
Stop 2: Bistro 57 – DU’s Go-To Chill Spot
Another ride. Another ₹25.
Next up, Bistro 57, right opposite SRCC – always buzzing, always reliable to beat the heat.
What we loved? The fact that hopping from one café to another didn’t need a second thought. No “split karein?” or “rickshaw kitna lega?” just book, ride, reach.
And honestly, when your ride costs less than your iced coffee, you know something’s changed – for the better
Stop 3: Sudama Chai – End It The Only Way DU Knows
You can’t do a DU trail without chai. So after spending a day around popular hotspots like Kamla Nagar and Hudson Lane, we decided to head for one last stop.
One last ₹25 bike ride later, we reached Sudama Chai – arguably the heart of campus conversations.
Cutting chai, random gossip, and zero stress about how we got there? That’s a win.
So, What’s With The ₹25?
That ₹25 note you’re spotting around campus isn’t just for show.
It’s part of Uber’s ‘Dikhegi Pachisi’, where short Uber Bike rides (up to 3 km) cost just ₹25.
Which basically means hopping between your favourite DU spots just got a whole lot easier.
Final Take
We started the day chasing a ₹25 note… and ended up unlocking one of the simplest ways to explore DU.
Three food stops, multiple rides, all at ₹25.
And while we tried this around North Campus, these ₹25 Uber Bike rides are also live across multiple cities in India, like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai & Hyderabad – making quick, short-distance travel far more affordable wherever you are.
Also, if you’ve been hearing that catchy track around this campaign, that’s the Dikhegi Pachisi anthem featuring Divine and Roll Rida – hit play on the video above to catch the vibe.
And honestly, when getting around is this effortless, you end up exploring more than you planned.
