Boy who wanted to buy Thar visits Chakan plant, Anand Mahindra posts video | Trending
Anand Mahindra, Chairman at Mahindra & Mahindra, had posted a video of a boy named Cheeku Yadav who wanted to buy a Thar for just ₹700. In the clip, which Mahindra shared in December, he wrote in a tweet that he ‘loved the boy,’ but he cannot sell the car for such a low price as the company would go ‘bankrupt’. Although Mahindra couldn’t grant Cheeku’s wish to acquire the car, he did arrange a visit for him to the Chakan plant, where Thar is manufactured. Anand Mahindra shared the boy’s video on X. (Twitter/@anandmahindra) “CHEEKU goes to CHAKAN. From a viral video to a real-life adventure, Cheeku, the young Thar enthusiast, visited our Chakan plant, bringing smiles and inspiration with him. Thank you, @ashakharga1 and Team @mahindraauto, for hosting one of our best brand ambassadors! (And I’m hoping it also prevents him now from asking his dad to buy him a Thar for only ₹700!) wrote Mahindra as he shared the video.
