According to Indian media reports, this house of Google CEO Sundar Pichai is located in Ashok Nagar, a residential area of Chennai, where he stayed for 20 years from childhood.
Recently this house was put up for sale which was bought by Tamil actor and director C Manikandan and now it is owned by him.
According to Indian media reports, Manikandan was looking to buy a property, when he came to know that the house where Sundar Pichai spent his childhood and youth was for sale, he decided to buy it.
The director of Tamil films said that Sundar Pichai has made our country proud in the world. Buying the house where he lived is the proudest achievement of my life.
Manikandan said that the humanity of the Google CEO’s parents had moved him. Narrating the full story, Sundar Pichai’s mother herself made coffee for us when we arrived to inspect the house.
Pichai’s father presented the documents to me at the very first meeting and I was impressed by his humility, adding that in fact his father waited for hours at the registration office and paid all the required taxes before giving me the documents.
Manikundan told the media that Sunder’s father had tears in his eyes while handing over the documents as it was his first property.
According to Indian media reports, Sundar Pichai was brought up in Chennai but he went to IIT Kharagpur in 1989 to study engineering.
