Astrotalk CEO Puneet Gupta has stirred a mix of curiosity and amusement on social media by announcing a whopping reward of Rs 100 crore for its users if India emerges victorious in the World Cup final against Australia.
Gupta took to LinkedIn to declare that the bounty would be 'equally divided' among the users and deposited into their app wallets.
“So, this morning I spoke to my finance team and pledged to distribute.
Rs 100 crores to our users in their wallets if India wins the World Cup,” he announced.
Gupta not only shared the reward details but also reminisced about the joy of witnessing India's last World Cup win in 2011. He expressed a desire to share the happiness of the upcoming match with Astrotalk users, whom he considers «more like friends.»
«Oh God, we were all very tense the entire day.
We didn't sleep well before the day of the match as we kept discussing the match strategy the whole night,” he added.
“But once we won the match, I had goosebumps for the longest duration. I hugged all my friends. We went on a bike ride in Chandigarh and did bhangra at every roundabout with unknown people.
