Remember Truck Driver Cum Vlogger? Anand Mahindra Shares His Inspiring Story

Business tycoon Anand Mahindra never fails to treat his followers to interesting content on social media that leaves them inspired. From hilarious clips to enlightening videos, his daily motivational posts on X (Formerly Twitter) are a treasure trove for internet users that pique their interest to start their day afresh. This time, the industrialist shared a video of Rajesh Rawani, India’s famous ‘truck driver vlogger’, in his Monday Motivation post.

The clip opens to show Rawani preparing Desi chicken. He starts by chopping onions and sautéing them. The wok, or kadhai, was connected to a gas cylinder inside his truck, which was standing on the side of an open highway near toll booths. Once the onions turn golden brown, he adds them and the chicken pieces to the pressure cooker. With a quick stir-fry, Rawani sealed the cooker lid and waited for the whistle. After a few minutes, he served rice along with piping hot chicken curry for him and his son.

Through his post, Anand Mahindra highlights that Rawani has been a truck driver for over 25 years, and he is now venturing into food and travel vlogging, giving inspiration to all. The Chairman of Mahindra Group further adds that the truck driver-turned-vlogger is a celebrity with 1.5 million followers on YouTube.

“He just bought a new home with his earnings. He’s demonstrated that no matter your age or how modest your profession, it’s never too late to adapt to new technology and to REINVENT yourself. He’s my Monday motivation,” wrote Anand Mahindra, sharing the clip.

The business tycoon’s Monday motivation touched all the right chords with the viewers online. The internet community couldn’t stop themselves from chiming in to the comments section to shower praise on the truck driver-turned-influencer’s hard work. They also thanked Anand Mahindra for sharing such an inspiring tale. There were some who voiced concerns regarding lighting gas cylinders inside the truck. Till now, the viral clip has been viewed more than 687,000 times, and the numbers are still rising.
