With Christmas around the corner and the festivities kicking in, noted industrialist Anand Mahindra shared a heartwarming video on Twitter today which he said made him "cry so early in the day."
The chairman of Mahindra Group took to Twitter to post a touching Christmas video. "Shoot; you made me cry so early in the day. No granddaughter yet but my grandson's that age…" he tweeted.
The video, an advertisement, begins with a grandfather, who wakes up every day and practises weight with a picture by his side. Keeping us guessing till the end, the video shows the onlookers trying to figure out why was the elderly man exercising. In the end, the grandfather can be seen visiting his granddaughter with a gift -- a Christmas star -- which he helps her put on top of a decorated tree.
The 2-minute video was viewed close to 20,000 times within an hour of Mr Mahindra's tweet.
