The actor had earlier tweeted about her niece having a horrific experience, to which Ola Cabs had appreciated her for highlighting the issue to them.
The actor's niece had taken to Facebook and written about her ordeal. She wrote, "My Ola ride from Lower Parel to Andheri West - The cab driver accepted my ride and came to pick me up. 5 minutes into the ride, he realized there was a lot of traffic and that he'd reach home late, so he made me get off in the middle of Dadar bridge. It was late in the night, making it difficult to find another cab. I had to walk down the bridge and walk through Dadar market. It took me 2 hours to reach my destination. Please help, this is unacceptable Ola".
Meanwhile, Azmi will be seen in the Karan Johar directorial 'Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani', which also stars Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Dharmendra and Jaya Bachchan.
