US fitness influencer and internet personality Ashton Hall is currently visiting India, and videos of him collaborating with several influencers from the fitness community have been surfacing online ever since. During his visit, Ashton travelled to multiple places and met several social media creators as well as politicians. However, one of the biggest highlights of this trip was his meeting with Yogendra Kushwa, a fitness influencer who started creating content after getting inspired by Ashton Hall. In fact, Yogendra even runs a page called “Indian Ashton Hall.” During their meeting, Ashton surprised Yogendra by gifting him a brand-new Mahindra Thar Roxx SUV, and videos of the moment have now gone viral online.
The video seen here was shared by Vikash Indoriya on his YouTube channel. Yogendra Kushwa is a 23-year-old content creator from Morena district in Madhya Pradesh. He became popular online after adopting the famous 3 AM, hyper-disciplined workout routines and content style of Ashton Hall.
Thanks to the internet, Yogendra’s consistent efforts eventually started gaining attention, and his videos even reached Ashton Hall himself. During Ashton’s visit to Yogendra’s village, the two met in person, collaborated on videos, and even filmed a high-energy “daily routine” video together.
After wrapping up the shoot and taking photographs, Ashton Hall surprised Yogendra with a brand-new Mahindra Thar Roxx. The SUV was gifted to him as a token of appreciation for his dedication and the quality of his content. In the video, Ashton can be heard praising Yogendra for his hard work and telling him that he has achieved this position purely because of his dedication and effort.
Several videos from the celebration are now available online, and it is evident that the entire village came together to celebrate Yogendra’s achievement. Ashton Hall and Yogendra were also seen taking the SUV out for a quick drive.
There are also reports suggesting that Ashton Hall announced another surprise during the visit. According to these reports, if their latest collaborative video crosses 20 million likes, Ashton would gift Yogendra $50,000 to help him build or renovate a house for his family.
The Mahindra Thar is one of the most popular SUVs among young buyers and off-road enthusiasts in India. At one point, it was also among the most affordable 4x4 SUVs available in the market. However, one of the biggest complaints customers had about the Thar was its three-door layout, which made it less practical for families.
To address this issue, Mahindra & Mahindra introduced the Thar Roxx. The SUV is based on the same platform as the Mahindra Scorpio N but carries the rugged exterior styling of the Thar. It is essentially a more practical version of the three-door Thar, thanks to its five-door layout and larger boot space.
The Thar Roxx comes loaded with premium features such as a panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats, electrically adjustable seats, Level 2 ADAS, automatic climate control, a large touchscreen infotainment system, a 360-degree camera, leatherette upholstery, and more.
The SUV is offered with both petrol and diesel engine options. The 4x4 system is available only with the diesel variants. The petrol version uses a 2.0-litre mStallion turbocharged engine paired with either a manual or automatic transmission. The diesel version gets a 2.2-litre turbocharged engine, also offered with both manual and automatic gearbox options.
The price of the Mahindra Thar Roxx starts at Rs 12.39 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes up to Rs 22.82 lakh (ex-showroom).
