Anand Mahindra Gifts Mini Truck To Auto Rickshaw Driver Who Modified To 'Scorpio'

IANS, 05 May, 2017 01:43 PM

    In March, one user Anil Panicker tweeted to Mahindra a photo of a three-wheeler, apparently a Piaggio Ape, whose rear had been modified into a rear of the Mahindra Scorpio.

     

    An impressed Mahindra decided to buy out the auto-rickshaw for the company museum and offered the owner a four-wheeler in exchange of a three wheeler.

     
     
     

    Within three days, the owner Sunil was located in Tiruvalla town of Kerala’s Pathanamthitta district.

     

    On Wednesday, Mahindra tweeted a photo of Sunil with his rickshaw as well as a brand new Supro, the company’s small commercial four-wheeler.

     
     

    Though the act was nothing short of quirky gimmick, it made a commoner happy and Twitter went gaga over Mahindra’s “way to ‘Rise’”.

     

    Panicker, who tweeted the first photo of the Kerala man’s auto, responded: “Hi sir. Thanks. I spoke to Sunil as well. It was an amazing feeling. (sic.)”

     
     

    One user said, “Sir, you r not Anand Mahindra at that moment, he is! Because Anand means “happy” n he got Mahindra vehicle. So he is Anand Mahindra :-) (sic.)”.

     

    Another one, @vajras even compared the Mahindra boss to Mahendra Baahubali, the lead character of south Indian blockbuster “Baahubali” fame, saying: “Great gesture sir.U have acted as #MahendraBaahubali in the current #BahubaliTheConclusion storm in reality to ur #Mahindra (sic.)”.
