Indian Model

Using 'didi' signifies respect for an older sister, showing familial closeness and honor in Indian culture.

Family Respect

'Didi' explicitly refers to an older female sibling; it's not used for older brothers.

'Didi' can be used beyond biological relations, addressing any older woman with affection or respect.

'Didi' implies the use of an app for booking rides, highlighting its technology-driven nature.
