Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has shared a video of himself riding an electric auto rickshaw, creating a buzz among his followers. The industrialist can be seen enjoying himself while he drives the three-wheeler around. Gates was seen dressed to the nines in a suit and tie while riding the e-rickshaw on the road. Interestingly, the video had the song “Babu Samjho Ishare” from the film Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi playing in the background. “India’s passion for innovation never ceases to amaze. I drove an electric rickshaw, capable of travelling up to 131 km (about 81 miles) and carrying up to 4 people. It’s inspiring seeing companies like Mahindra contribute to the decarbonization of the transportation industry”, Gates wrote while sharing the video.

The video prompted a variety of reactions. Mahindra Group chairperson and Gates’ Harvard classmate Anand Mahindra had the perfect pun for the situation. “Chalti ka Naam Bill Gates ki Gaadi” So glad you found the time to check out the Treo Bill Gates. Now on your next trip’s agenda should be a 3-wheeler EV drag race between you, Sachin Tendulkar and me,” he wrote.
