Shared less than an hour ago, the tweet has already won applause from many on Twitter. The post has collected over 10,000 likes and more than 1,800 retweets – and very much counting.

People are praising this initiative on Twitter.

“I haven’t seen too many philanthropist businessmen. Good to have people like you in our nation,” says a Twitter user. “Wow! This is really nice. All should think of such innovative ideas to keep small businesses alive,” says another. “Eco friendly and also good to eat in banana leaves for health and sustainability,” says a third. “Great gesture sir. You’re real entrepreneur,” says another.

In September last year, Anand Mahindra was applauded for changing plastic bottles to “re-fillable” bottles in all the boardrooms of his organization. He had been prompted by a Twitter user to make the change and Mahindra promised to bring about the change and fulfilled it.
