Industrialist Anand Mahindra never ceases to amaze us with his social media posts. The social media users called the post pure nostalgia. A user commented, "There were very few channels then. A human remote will become underweight in today's time."

Another user wrote, "Same story here too. #GharGharKiKahani Also those were the days when we had to rotate the antenna a bit (a lot) to ensure seamless picture quality. Needless to mention, I was quite an expert at that."

"So much nostalgia with this picture. I was continuously holding or iterating on the antenna on the roof for my grandfather," the third user wrote.

"back then, when the TV channel options were limited, we zeroed in on our favourite channel within seconds. But now most of the viewing time is consumed in browsing or searching what to watch," the fourth user commented.

The fifth user wrote, "Just not about getting a pound lighter this also would help families stay together. Now everyone in their rooms .. on their mobiles and no time for family talk and discussion."

The Twitter handle of the Mahindra Group Chairman is full of interesting, inspiring and witty tweets, along with important life lessons for his 10.4 million followers.
