Easy to answer this. I wanted to be a filmmaker & was studied film in college. My thesis was a film I made at the ‘77 Kumbh Mela. But this pic was while shooting a documentary in a remote village near Indore. Anyone old enough to guess which handheld 16mm camera I was using? https://t.co/xmLuuLrv3A pic.twitter.com/oKCddQFyGf

On the other hand, Anand Mahindra presented a bespoke SUV car to Indian shooter Avani Lekhara, who brought accolades to the country by capturing the first gold medal in the Tokyo Paralympics last year. Mahindra provided the 20-year-old with a customised XUV700 to meet the para athlete's accessibility requirements.

Lekhara shared the photographs on Twitter, calling it a great step forward in making India more inclusive. "Thank you, Anand Mahindra sir, and the entire staff at Mahindra Auto who worked on this customised vehicle! Cars like these are a significant step toward a more inclusive India, and I want to see many more of them on the road in the future," the Khel Ratna winner wrote.
