An elated Mohan Babu was seen behind the wheels, taking a drive with his daughter-in-law Vini and his twin baby granddaughters. “He was happy not just because of the SUV, but also because he could take his little angels out for a drive,” says a source close to the family, who claims that Mohan Babu’s new ride is a customised vehicle.

“It took nearly five months to get the car ready; with the best features such as exquisite interiors, wheels and rims, specialised speakers, and a rear-view camera. It suits the bumpy Indian roads as it offers a comfortable ride. It’s also a good car for Mohan Babu who is quite tall,” adds the source. Although, the family already owns a Porsche and another Range Rover, the new car is exclusively for Mohan Babu who likes to travel.

Even though Mohan Babu always dreamt of owning a SUV, he initially declined to accept the expensive gift and his family had to convince him. “I used to walk a few kilometres just to save one rupee for my lunch,” he said about his humble beginnings. “He deserves a lot more than this as he has sacrificed a lot to bring us up. He gave us all the luxuries in the world, so this is just a small way of returning his abundant love,” says Vishnu Babu, who denies any special occasion for the gift. “Given a choice, I would give him a gift every single day,”he asserts.
