Netizens Reactions:
Netizens across platforms are applauding the man’s honesty, grit, and moral strength, especially for clearing his debts at a time when many large-scale defaulters fled the country without repayment. “The one thing that stayed with me from this video is how he says he paid the loan despite the losses and that there's no loan left to be repaid even to the banks. Compare that to some of the big loan defaulters we've had in our country who ran away with hundreds of crores unpaid,” wrote one user.
Another commented, “Man made a loss of ₹2 crore in this business being impacted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He is still smiling and going about his daily routine. Such courageous men with incredible determination are a blessing. ”
Another user commented, "Unlike others hes not asking for freebies or playing the victim card."
