Sunil Patil, popularly known as Dolly Chaiwala, has become a social media phenomenon thanks to his unique and flamboyant style of serving tea. His YouTube channel, “Dolly Ki Tapri Nagpur,” has amassed over 1.37 million subscribers, while his Instagram account boasts around 900,000 followers.
Dolly’s tea stall, located at the Civil Lines VCA Ground in Nagpur and later dubbed “Dolly Ki Tapri,” quickly became a local hotspot. His distinctive tea-serving technique involves pouring tea from a height to create a frothy layer, capturing the attention of many. Coupled with his colorful hair, trendy glasses, and vibrant attire, Dolly’s persona is as captivating as his tea.
In February 2024, Dolly’s fame soared when a video of him serving tea to Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates went viral. Gates praised Dolly’s innovative approach to making a simple cup of tea, which significantly boosted Dolly’s status as a social media star. Today, Dolly Chaiwala is celebrated not just for his delicious tea, but also for his ability to transform a humble tea stall into a viral sensation.
