Anand Mahindra made the headlines once again after he reacted to a video clip, in which a young boy was seen venting his frustration. The young boy complained about not having enough arrangements for children in Mahindra showrooms.
For the unversed, the video of the “little follower” from Mumbai was shared by X user Vikas Garg and the clip gained traction among the netizens on social media. More importantly, the video also caught the attention of Anand Mahindra who didn’t hesitate to respond to the post.
In the video clip, the boy can be heard saying, “Idhar bas elder logon ke liye kyun hota hain sab kuch? Idhar tea hain, coffee hain sab kuch hain. Idhar bachchon ke liye kuch kyun nahi hain (Translation: Why are there only things for the elders? They get tea and coffee, but why isn’t anything arranged for the kids?)”
Vikas captioned the video, “Sir, this is an appeal by Master Advik, a little follower of Mahindra, to consider them equally influential in the decision-making of buying a car.”
Anand Mahindra replies to the video clip
Meanwhile, Anand Mahindra replied, “Today, the voices and opinions of children are hugely influencing which car a family chooses to buy. And Advik is also right, we don’t do enough to give importance to children in the showrooms. I know our team is going to be inspired to act on Advik’s suggestion.”
Soon after the post went viral on the internet, one of the users pitched in with his opinion. “This is super cool,” a user said. “With all humility, I see these as the problems of the privileged, engaging / entertaining children who accompany a family visiting a car showroom. It is totally different from involving them in the decision-making of which car a family buys. I hope we don’t mix up both,” another user said.
