Anand Mahindra is quite fascinated with the word 'Jhakaas' as NASSCOM Design and Engineering Summit shared his quote under the title that says 'India Innovates: From Jugaad to Jhakaas'. The business tycoon took to his Twitter handle to express that he doesn't know the origin of the word 'Jhakaas' and who else to explain the meaning — Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor came to his rescue and answered his query.

Kapoor said he might have been 'inadvertently' responsible for popularising it in 1985 with his character in the film and also gave an example of its usage to Mahindra in his reply.
