Anand Mahindra joked that the name is “completely logical”
New Delhi:
Cheap replicas of popular brands often have deceptively similar names that are quite amusing at times. Industrialist Anand Mahindra has shared a picture of one such product having the branding of the sports brand Adidas, but with a funny tweak.
Uploaded on Twitter by the Mahindra Group Chairman, the picture features a white shoe which looks like an Adidas footwear with its logo and the three-stripe trademark. However, upon looking closer, one can spot that Adidas has been spelt as “Ajitdas” on the counterfeit shoe.
While some may find it absurd, Mr Mahindra joked that the name is “completely logical”. “It just means that Adi has a brother called Ajit. Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam?” he wrote.
