In the age where trolling has become a trend, there are some stories that inspire social media users to do something good for society. Anand Mahindra, the CEO of Mahindra group has done something similar on Twitter to help a lady entrepreneur from Mangalore.
Someone shared the success story of a single mom who is using Mahindra Bolero as a food truck and has now become popular for serving North Kannada delicacies. The Twitter user even tagged Anand Mahindra in his tweet.

This is what he wrote in his tweet “A terrific story of entrepreneurship to end the week with.At Mahindra, we call this a Rise story. Am so delighted the Bolero played a small role. Can someone reach her & tell her I will personally invest in her expansion by supplying a Bolero for the second outlet she’s planning?”

He even clarified in another tweet that this is not a charity but an investment. “I don’t think she wants or needs my charity. She is a successful entrepreneur. I am offering to invest in her expansion,” Mahindra group CEO wrote.

This is not the first instance that Mahindra has supported people who have done something unique using vehicles of his company. Earlier this year, he gifted a new car to an auto-rickshaw driver, who had made his auto-rikshaw look like a Scorpio.
