In Japan, renting a partner for companionship—whether for a date, dining, or attending events—has been a common practice for a while. However, this concept is still quite rare in India. Recently, though, a South Delhi woman has sparked an online buzz by proposing a similar service.
This woman, who runs the Instagram page @divya_giri__, posted a reel inviting people to “rent her for a day to create some amazing memories together.”
She included a detailed rate-chart:
- Chill Coffee Date: Rs 1500
- Normal Date (Dinner and Movie): Rs 2000
- Meeting with Family: Rs 3000
- Event Companion: Rs 3500
- Bike Date (holding hands): Rs 4000
- Public Post about Date: Rs 6000
- Adventure Day (Hiking, Kayaking, etc.): Rs 5000
- Cooking Together at Home: Rs 3500
- Shopping Spree: Rs 4500
- Weekend Getaway (2 days): Rs 10,000
She concluded with, “Have something specific in mind? Let’s plan the perfect day tailored just for you!”

The post quickly spread across various social media platforms, generating a mix of reactions. Some users speculated it was a scam, with one commenting, “All these are simply scams,” and another warning, “This is a honey trap. Stay away, or you’ll be asked for lakhs of money.” Others joked, “Girl thinks she’s in Japan.”
As societal norms shift, such services highlight the evolving dynamics of modern relationships and the growing acceptance of non-traditional companionship arrangements. While this idea may seem unusual, it reflects the diverse ways people seek connection in today’s rapidly changing world.
