Apart from his mammoth business empire, business tycoon Anand Mahindra is also known for being socially active. From humour to encouraging brilliant ideas, when it comes to speaking his mind, the billionaire always seems to take the front seat. Recently, a video of a 'musical highway' went viral on social media. The clip is of a highway in Hungary, that plays music if the passenger is maintaining the correct speed.

Impressed by the same, the chairman of Mahindra Group was quick to appreciate the technology and, in fact, went ahead and pitched the same idea to Union Road and Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari for India as well. Anand Mahindra wrote, "What an idea. I’m sure @nitin_gadkari ji can make our highways ‘sing’ as well. Now the only tough choice will be WHICH song or music should play when at the right speed… I would imagine it would have to change from state to state." WATCH VIDEO:

Agreeing with the business tycoon, the netizens joined the comment box and gave their views on the matter. "Indeed, India's infrastructure progress is commendable! But Traffic in metros is a separate issue, though. Maybe a soothing symphony to calm the commuters? Wouldn't that be a sweet drive! What do you think?" a user commented. "Visionary NH Minister," wrote a second. "Nice idea!!" joined a third netizen. "Bet the pedal will get lighter with peppier ones Bhangra!!" wrote a fourth.
