As a challenge to popular messaging app WhatsApp, Yoga guru Ramdev’s Patanjali has now launched a new messaging app called “Kimbho”. WhatsApp has more than a billion downloads from Google Play store.
Recently Patanjali launched swadeshi samriddhi sim cards and this ‘swadeshi messaging platform’ has followed it.
Patanjali’s spokesperson SK Tijarawala tweeted, “Now Bharat will speak. After launching sim cards, Ramdev has launched a new messaging application called Kimbho. Now WhatsApp will be given a competition. Our own #SwadeshiMessagingplatform. Download it directly from Google Play store.”
The new app functions just like WhatsApp and you can send direct messages or create groups to send out broadcast messages. Apart from this, one can form broadcast lists, follow celebrities and also doodle using Kimbho app.
Google Play Store describes Kimbho as a real-time messaging app. “Kimbho empowers private group chats with free phone and video calling. It has dozens of amazing features to share text audio, photos, videos, stickers, quickies, location, GIF, Doodle and more,” the description reads.
Ramdev’s Patanjali joined hands earlier with BSNL to launch Swadeshi Samriddhi SIM cards on May 27.
After its full launch, people will be given a discount of 10 percent on Patanjali products with the SIM card.
