"In India, you can find innovation everywhere you turn—even in the preparation of a simple cup of tea!", reads the caption of a video by Microsoft Founder Bill Gates, who is in India to attend the pre-wedding festivities of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant.  Gates met Dolly Chaiwala, a Nagpur-based content creator and owner of a tea business, and enjoyed a cup of 'cutting chai' in a video that is going viral. The video has garnered more than 37 million views on Instagram. 

In the video, while Dolly is seen making tea in his unique style, Gates said, "I am excited to be back in India. A home to incredible innovators. Working on new ways to save and improve lives. Looking forward to many Chai Pe Charcha." 



Brands too have been quick to comment on the video.

Food delivery app, Swiggy commented on the video, "How much was the bill?" Zomato took to X and said - "up to 60% OFF on chai even for Bill Gates"

Another user commented, "Bill Gates trying to stay relevant". While someone else said, "Crossover no one expected".
