Reaction has ranged from admiration to parody and memes. The comments were like “See what happens with the Rs 6 platform fee” and a few remarked, “Bought supercar with my 6 rupees.”

A user humourously stated, “Phir mujhe kyun hamesha bike waale delivery dene aate hain (Then why do I always get deliveries from bike riders)?”

Another person mentioned, “Ye sab Rs 1 feeding donation ka kamaal hai (This is all the magic of the Rs 1 feeding donation).”

“The power of Rs 6 platform fee,” a comment read.

Someone also stated, “Jab itna paisa hai to delivery waale ko bhi health insurance dedo? Ya PF dedo (Now that you have so much money, why not give the delivery guy health insurance? Or at least a provident fund)?”

Goyal’s Aston Martin DB12 is worthy of attention since it is the first car of this type in India, which was bought for around Rs 4.59 crore. In September of last year, the British supercar maker Aston Martin introduced the DB12 GT automobile to the Indian market. His collection also includes a Porsche 911 Turbo S which is worth Rs 3.35 crore, Ferrari Roma for Rs 3.76 crore and Lamborghini Urus for Rs 4.18 crore.

Other auto brands seen in the video include Audi and Mercedes while Dhindsa’s car is a BMW Z4 M40i priced at Rs 90.90 lakh.
