Anand Mahindra compares ‘out of stock’ Taj Mahal with White House Lego sets, says ‘Brand Values’

New Delhi: Anand Mahindra, one of India's largest business tycoons, is highly active on social media, and his tweets continue to catch people's attention. The Mahindra Group Chair's recent tweet on LEGO selling Taj Mahal sets is becoming more popular.

Anand Mahindra shared a photo from the Manhattan, New York, LEGO store where the White House boxes were still intact but the Taj Mahal sets appeared to be out of stock.

“Lego store in Manhattan, New York. Interesting that the Taj Mahal flies off the shelf faster and is out of stock but the White House is plentiful…Maybe there should be some kind of Lego Group Index of relative brand values!” the billionaire tweeted.

There is no denying that the Taj Mahal is a magnificent sight and that it promotes Indian tourism. A user who shared the same opinion remarked, "Must be happening. Good for us. A wonder of the world (architectural marvel) rightly getting more appreciation than at home. Taj as the pride of India will stand tall forever. Rich tributes to our culture and history. Wish more orders come from Lego Store. Jai Hind." Read More: Gold price today, August 7: Gold rates drop; yellow metal stands at Rs 51,870

“With all due respect, maybe the out-of-stock message banner is generic and not particular to the Taj Mahal Lego set. In the picture it looks like there are at least 2 Lego sets of Taj Mahal on the shelf,” read a comment.
