As part of the Ola Play initiative, Ola installed tablets in its cabs through which customers can access personalized content such as music, movies, shopping, and also control the air-conditioning. Ola confirmed Bhargava’s departure from the company, but denied the exits of any other executives. Sriram V. Iyer, head of engineering and senior director at Ola, has also quit. In January, Ola also hired former SAB Miller India executive Shalabh Seth as the chief executive of its leasing subsidiary Ola Fleet Technologies Pvt. To fend off Uber, Ola has also initiated talks for a fresh round of funding.
