North Korea, anyone by Ola Cabs? What joke, you wonder! But what if we tell you Ola Cabs in fact approved a ride from Bangaluru to North Korea, and shared details of the driver too? Yes, it is true and it all happened via Ola cab booking tool. Tech blogger and web developer Rohit Menda booked a cab ride from Bengaluru to North Korea for fun, but to his surprise Ola Cabs not only scheduled the ride, it also estimated duration and fare of his trip. 
The cab-hailing app apparently calculated the trip duration for six days from March 18 to March 23. No wonders, Ola Cabs estimated the fare at an exorbitant amount of Rs 1,49,088. A surprised Menda took to Twitter to post the screenshots of the planned trip, tagging the official twitter handle of Ola, which in turn responded to his messages.
