Indian businessman gifts custom pink Rolls-Royce to one-year-old daughter, viral video sparks criticism: ‘Extremely shallow'
Indian entrepreneur Satish Sanpal, who lives in Dubai, is making waves on the Internet for gifting his one-year-old daughter, Isabella Sanpal, a custom pink Rolls-Royce. Sanpal is the founder of ANAX Developments and had grabbed eyeballs for hosting an extravagant birthday party for her daughter. This event was hosted at The Atlantis and featured performances from artistes like Tammanah Bhatia, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Aatif Aslam, and Nora Fatehi.
In the now-viral clip, Sanpal is seen with his wife, Tabinda Sanpal, as they surprise their daughter, Isabella, with the keys to her customised luxury car. The metallic pink Rolls-Royce features a matching all-pink interior, with custom seats monogrammed with her initials. A plaque inside the car reads, 'Congratulations, Isabella'. A note on the floor reveals that the vehicle was custom-made in England and shipped to the UAE especially for her.
As the video progresses, it shows the family arriving in another Rolls-Royce to receive the custom-made pink vehicle. The toddler is seen enjoying the music and dancing as she is taken to the store.
Sharing the video, an Instagram handle @loveindubai wrote, 'Satish Sanpal just won Father's Day. He gifted a custom-built Rolls-Royce in Dubai just for his precious baby girl, Isabella Satish Sanpal. Such a Dubai Dad move.'

The video did not sit well with social media users, prompting naysayers to react. 'I understand that people can spend their money however they like, but it's still sad seeing a toddler get a Rolls Royce when some charities have to beg for support,' a user wrote. 'It's a tacky and flashy display of wealth and just proves that money does not buy class,' another user commented.
'This is extremely shallow,' a third user reacted. 'when you don't know what to do with your money,' a fourth user said.
