A throwback picture shared by Anand Mahindra of himself along with his classmates from school has created a chatter online. The picture shows them performing as a part of a band. Mahindra shared the post while replying to a video he earlier shared.
“In my school in Ooty, we had two kids from a British family settled in India. Nicholas Horsburgh & his brother Michael had local nicknames: ‘Nagu & Muthu.’ I had no idea HOW native Nick had become until a video of him singing a Malayalam song recently surfaced in social media!,” the business tycoon wrote and shared a video. In the same thread, he posted the throwback image. “After seeing that video of Nick, I retrieved this pic from my school album. That’s Nick at the mike. Always the singer. The twerp to his left is yours truly. Despite being a junior they let me join their band: ‘The Blackjacks.’ Maybe Nick will remind me what song we were playing,” he tweeted along with the image.
