Anand Mahindra is one of India’s most renowned business leaders, known for his sharp business acumen and his strong social media presence.
Beyond his corporate success, Mahindra has also earned a reputation for his engaging and witty interactions on social media. One of the things that sets Anand Mahindra apart from other business tycoons is his generous nature.
Over the years, he has gifted Mahindra vehicles to individuals who have demonstrated exceptional talent and resilience. For instance, he recently gifted a brand-new Mahindra Scorpio-N to Sheetal Devi, India’s first armless archer. Similarly, he honored Naushad Khan, the father of cricketer Sarfaraz Khan, with a Mahindra Thar in recognition of his dedication to his son’s cricketing journey.
Anand Mahindra Replies After Netizen Asks Him To Gift Thar To FBI Director Kash Patel
The recent confirmation of Kash Patel as the new Director of the FBI has sparked a wave of discussions across Indian social media platforms. Patel, an Indian-American and close ally of former U.S. President Donald Trump, secured the position with a narrow 51-49 vote in the U.S. Senate.
His appointment is historic, as he is the first Hindu and Indian-American to lead the FBI. While his selection has been met with both pride and controversy due to his political affiliations, many Indians are celebrating his achievement as a significant milestone for the Indian diaspora.
As social media buzzed with congratulatory messages and memes, some users took their enthusiasm a step further by making an unusual request to Anand Mahindra. One user, Harshit, commented on X (formerly Twitter):
“Inko bhi Thar gift kar do sir.”
Anand Mahindra, known for his humorous and insightful responses, did not disappoint. Sharing a picture of Kash Patel, he captioned it:
“Kash Patel, new Director of the FBI. Doesn’t look like you can mess with this guy. Mind it.”
Hmmm. Thar ke layak toh lagta hai ye shaks…
