Anand Mahindra claps back
Anand Mahidra took notice of the comment and replied to it.

Anand Mahindra shares emotional video
Sharing the video, Anand Mahindra thanked the car’s owner for his empathy.
“This video is, I believe, over a year old. I saw it only recently and couldn’t help being greatly moved. First, thank you to the car’s owner for his generosity of spirit and empathy,” he said.
The industrialist also reflected upon the joy that cars can bring to people.
“And I have to say, as a car manufacturer, it is good to be reminded of the uninhibited joy and delight cars can provide to people,” he said.
He also hoped that his engineers at Mahindra would design cars with passion.
“That is how I hope our designers and engineers at Mahindra—both current and future—will always approach the creative process: by keeping in mind that cars are more than just devices of transportation,” Mahindra said.
“When designed with passion, they can deliver joy to all who experience them,” he added.
In the video, the specially abled man, who was taking selfies in front of a yellow Porsche, was approached by its owner. To the vendor’s surprise, the owner took him for a joyride, making him tear up with joy. The heartwarming video has captured people’s hearts.
