“Most people do it for the thrill. Kay Mehta, our own Adanian, did it to make a statement. From the heights of Rishikesh, strapped in his wheelchair, Kay took a leap that told the world: no odds, no fear, can stop willpower,” the business mogul wrote.

A third joined, “Kay Mehta's courage is truly extraordinary! His leap wasn't just about adventure—it was a powerful message that determination knows no limits.” A fourth wrote, “Once more, the Adani group is backing the employees who represent just a tiny fraction of this massive company. When you say something like that to a worker, it truly comes off as a heartfelt gesture. Much respect.”

During his son Jeet Adani’s wedding, Gautam Adani broke away from the billionaire wedding norm and donated 10,000 crore to social causes. The newlyweds, Jeet Adani and Diva Shah, also pledged to donate 10 lakh each every year for weddings of women with disabilities.
