Indian origin CEO of the visa application startup Atlys, Mohak Nahta has made a bold promise that has caught the attention of social media users.
Nahta, who leads the San Francisco-based company with offices in Mumbai and Gurugram, announced that he will offer free visas to all Atlys users for one day if Indian javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra secures a gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Making the announcement on LinkedIn, Nahta said, "I will personally send a free visa to everyone if Neeraj Chopra wins gold at the Olympics. Let’s go, India," Nahta wrote in his initial post. He later clarified the details, stating that the offer would cover visas for all countries and would be available to users for one day if Chopra wins.
The post has sparked a flurry of reactions on LinkedIn, with over 1,100 users engaging with Nahta's post. Many expressed admiration for the initiative, viewing it as a unique form of encouragement for Chopra and a gesture of national pride. Comments ranged from praise for Nahta’s generosity to suggestions on how to manage the potential influx of visa requests, including the creation of a Google form for easier processing.
One user commented, “Wow, impressive! Go India, just don’t settle with one gold.” Another remarked, “That's a great gesture, Mohak. The most important feeling is to see Neeraj achieving the gold, which will swell all of us with pride.”
Atlys, founded in 2020, specializes in streamlining the visa application process for travelers, and Nahta's offer represents a significant move that could potentially see thousands of users benefitting, should Chopra achieve gold.
Neeraj Chopra, who won India’s first-ever Olympic gold in athletics at the Tokyo 2020 Games, is widely expected to perform strongly in Paris, raising hopes for a repeat of his historic victory. The javelin events at the Paris 2024 Olympics are scheduled for August 8 and 10.
