Businessman Anand Mahindra is a frequent user of social media and is known for his quirky posts. On Sunday, he shared an adorable video of a little boy who believes that a Thar car can be bought for just Rs 700. In the 1 minute and 29-second video, the boy named Cheeku Yadav who hails from Noida, has an endearing conversation with his father wherein he expresses his wish to buy a Mahindra Thar. The innocent boy believes that Mahindra cars Thar and XUV 700 are the same and both can be bought for Rs 700.
The child's misunderstanding left social media users amused and also caught the attention of Anand Mahindra. While sharing the video, he quipped that if his company were to sell the Thar for Rs 700, they would soon be bankrupt.
''My friend Sooni Taraporevala sent me this saying “I love Cheeku!” So I watched some of his posts on Instagram (@cheekuthenoidakid) and now I love him too. My only problem is that if we validated his claim and sold the Thar for 700 bucks, we'd be bankrupt pretty soon,'' the caption of the video read.
