Anand Mahindra echoes Elon Musk's call for celebrating manufacturing heroes on silver screen
Elon Musk, the visionary CEO of Tesla and SpaceX. Musk's remark highlighted the stark contrast between the glamorised portrayal of lone inventors having eureka moments in garages and the often-overlooked complexities of large-scale manufacturing.
"Many movies exist about a lone inventor in a garage having a eureka moment, but almost none about manufacturing, so it's underappreciated by the public," Musk's quote read. “Compared to the insane pain of reaching high-volume, positive-margin production, prototypes are a piece of cake." The industrialist further highlighted the substantial viewership that videos showcasing the manufacturing process of automobiles receive on platforms like YouTube.
"More so because the films we make of our cars being manufactured get large viewership on YouTube, so there's certainly an audience out there looking for more…," Mahindra tweeted, suggesting a potential market for cinematic representations of manufacturing endeavours. Milestone Alert!
