The truth behind the video
However, the truth behind the video is different from what we can see in the clip. MG Motors clarified that Sahdev was invited to an event at their store. According to the reports MG honoured and congratulated Sahdev by giving him a cheque of rupees 21,000 and a basket of chocolates.
Dheeraj Kumar, sales manager at Raipur based MG Motors also said, “We recently called the child artist Sahdev Dirdo to felicitate him. On this occasion, we requested Sahdev to hand over the car keys to a customer. The news that we gifted him a car is completely false”.
We spoke to the social media manager of Sahdev Dirdo, Pintu Maheshwari, he also confirmed that on 9 August 2021 Sahdev was invited to an event by Raipur based MG Motors and the viral video is of the same event. He clarified that they invited Sahdev to hand over the keys to their first electric car customer. He further said, “I posted some videos of the event through Sahdev’s Facebook page and later the videos started being shared elsewhere.”So, the overall conclusion is that it’s clear that MG Motors has not gifted a car to the ‘Bachpan Ka Pyaar’ famed boy Sahdev Dirdo and all the news that is going viral about him receiving a car, is just a rumour.
