He has often used the platform to call out personalities, boost citizen initiatives or join in with inputs on the daily trending topics.

Last month, in a post on X, Mahindra wrote about Hyderabad's Sudha Car Museum, adding that the stop would be added to the itinerary during his next visit to the city. He also expressed embarassment over never having heard of the museum before despite frequent visits to Hyderabad.

The Sudha Cars Museum in Bahadurpura is famous for its eccentric cars, which come in various shapes and sizes, such as a shoe, a tennis ball, and even a burger.
