Anand Mahindra Keeps His Promise, Gifts Thar to Sarfaraz Khan’s Father

Anand Mahindra, CEO of the Mahindra Group, honoured his word by gifting a Thar to Naushad Khan, father of emerging cricket talent Sarfaraz Khan, as promised after Sarfaraz’s Test debut.

Naushad’s sacrifices were instrumental in Sarfaraz’s journey to achieving his dream of donning the Indian cricket jersey. In a heartwarming gesture, Anand Mahindra, the industrialist, decided to gift Sarfaraz a Mahindra Thar after being deeply touched by their story.

In a video that quickly spread across social media, Sarfaraz Khan and his father Naushad Khan were filmed revealing their recently acquired Thar:

Sarfaraz’s debut for India was nothing short of historic, as he not only scored the fastest fifty by a debutant batter but also managed to hit half-centuries in both innings of his Test debut, making it a truly memorable occasion.
