Months of April and May saw more than 15,000 people from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana participate in Thums Up Thunder Challenge - an ultimate test of strength and stamina. India’s first of its kind mobile obstacle course race was organized by Thums Up to bring out the uncompromising attitude and showcase people’s Toofani Spirit. Following the grand finale of Thunder Challenge that was organized in Hyderabad on 8 May, 45 winners were invited to meet Mahesh Babu in Hyderabad today.
Mahesh Babu who is a Thums Up brand ambassador interacted with these winners of Thunder Challenge from 5 cities - Warangal, Rajahmahendravaram, Visakhapatnam, Tirupati and Hyderabad along with 8 specially-abled Veers who also showcased their toofani spirit through the Thunder Challenge.
Speaking on the occasion, Thums Up brand ambassador, Mahesh Babu, said, “The Thums Up Thunder Challenge was a great initiative that truly reflected the brand’s philosophy and encouraged people to challenge themselves and emerge victorious. I am pleased to meet these 'Toofani Stars' of AP and Telangana as well as the Veers who showcased their mental grit and physical strength to compete with other participants. I have always believed in living life to the fullest and Thums Up's idea of going beyond the ordinary is something that I strongly relate with. I am glad that Thums Up gave a chance to people from these cities to unleash the toofani spirit that we all have within us.”
Meet and greet with the winners revolved around a discussion on how the whole idea of going beyond the ordinary strongly relates with Mahesh Babu, sharing Toofani experiences, the overall experience of the entire Thunder Challenge and at last Mahesh Babu sharing his fruitful association with Thums Up.
