    In a tweet posted yesterday, Mahindra said: “They may not figure in the Forbes Rich list but in my view, they are amongst the richest people in our country. Their wealth is their attitude to life.” He even added that the next time he’s in Kochi, he would definitely drop by their tea shop.

Along with the money earned from the shop and with the help of bank loans, Vijayan and Mohana have travelled to over 20 countries.
