From Autorickshaw To Audi, How Two Boys Went From Selling Sim Cards To Buying An A6
A lot of times, people think that only those who are fortunate enough to be born into a wealthy family can buy a luxury car. However, there are a lot of people in this world who use their parents' love and support to achieve such massive dreams. Recently, a video has gone viral online in which two sons of an autorickshaw driver managed to buy their family's first luxury car, an Audi A6 sedan.
The video showing the story of these traders who went from selling SIM cards to buying an Audi A6 has been shared on Instagram by Humans of Bombay on their page. In this short but inspiring video, the first visual that is shown is of the young boys and their mother with their family's first autorickshaw, following which it shows the entire journey of how these young traders managed to buy an Audi.
This particular story is of a young man named Rohit Nandeshwar, who hails from Pune, Maharashtra. The young man narrated that he grew up in a very small house with broken walls and a leaking roof. In total, there were six family members who had to share everything. At the time, the only breadwinner in their home was their father.
He used to drive a rented autorickshaw in the city and managed to earn just enough to make sure that his family could afford a meal. The narrator mentioned that some days he would earn a decent amount, but some days it would not be enough to cover the cost of petrol as well. The man highlighted that whatever his father would earn, he would hand it over to their mother.
Now, even with such a limited budget, she would manage to save some money and, as a result, their father managed to buy his own autorickshaw. During this time, he also got a job as a driver, which took his earnings from Rs 150 a day to Rs 15,000 a month. Following this, things started to become better.
However, there were more responsibilities on his father, such as his sister's marriage, brother's education, and his father's own health as well. So, to relieve some financial burden off their father, he and his brother started selling SIM cards, working in cafes during the day, and distributing pamphlets during the night. After this, he got a job as an HR assistant, making Rs 4,500 a month.
The man added that he and his brother also started an event business together in 2018. From there, they got to know about the stock market through one of their clients. The brothers then started trading and managed to make some amount of money. However, during the pandemic, the market crashed, their event business shut down, and all of their savings of around Rs 2 lakh vanished.
Additionally, they had EMIs piling up and were at a very low point. However, during this time, the man mentioned that his father's advice of working with honesty and not depending upon luck helped them march through these difficult times. Following this, the brothers spent three years learning about the stock market and managed to earn bigger profits.
Fast forward to 2025, they decided that it was time for them to finally buy their family's first luxury car to make their parents happy. As a result, they looked, finalized, and paid for an Audi A6 sedan, which was brought to their home, and their entire family, especially their parents, became emotional.
