Have a look at his tweet here:
He is my ‘Start-up’ hero. What he has done takes much more spirit & courage then just starting up a business—he has restarted & reinvented his life…not just once, but twice… https://t.co/lTieWbRsBH

A user pointed out that it was all about courage at the end of the day.
Life is like that only, only difference is courage only. The courage we carry to do something irrespective of situation makes us different.

Earlier, Mahindra had grabbed attention on social media for his reply to a user who had asked his educational qualification to which he replied saying that the only qualification of any merit at his age was experience.
In another instance, Mahindra had referred to a wall art featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger as ‘The Great Indian Funnel’ and pointed out that Indians gave a desi twist to everything. This had even made him thought why he used to try so hard to speak ‘Schwarzenegger’ when he could just called him ‘Mr. Subhashnagar’.
