The world’s richest man has received an investment offer of $2 billion from a conman jailed in India in a multi-crore fraud case. Sukesh Chandrashekhar, who is lodged in Delhi’s Mandoli jail, said in a letter to Elon Musk he wants to invest $1 billion right away in his microblogging platform X, formerly Twitter, and another $1 billion in the coming year. If accepted, he said, the investment would make him a “proud Indian”.<\/p>\n
“I am taking this Privilege and Pride today to say, Hey Elon, I am ready and wanting to invest ‘1 Billion USD’ immediately and another ‘1 Billion USD’ next year in your Company X, making a total ‘2 Billion USD’ as investment,” the letter read, adding that it was not an undervaluation of the platform.<\/p>\n
Chandrashekhar called Musk “my man” and President Donald Trump “big brother” in the letter, congratulating the X owner over his leadership in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that has been tasked by Trump to cut government spending.<\/p>\n

What you have built is amazing. Being a part of that build would be the craziest and greatest thing for me,” he wrote in the letter.<\/p>\n This is his second investment offer in three weeks – which follows a similar letter to OpenAI’s Sam Altman. Chandrashekhar wrote to Altman earlier this month that he wants to invest $2 billion in the ChatGPT-maker for its Indian operations.<\/p>\n “As you and your company is now working towards becoming a part of India’s National AI Agenda, I want to play a small role by making an investment in Open AI of 1 Billion USD, immediately, and further extend it to another 2 Billion USD over the next five years for your Indian operations,” the letter read.<\/p>\n Questioning the need for going to venture capitalists for such investments, he asked why should the “big boys always have fun” and pleaded “Sam, just take my money”.<\/p>\n Read:\u00a0<\/strong>Court Allows 26 Luxury Cars Owned By Conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar To Be Sold<\/a><\/p>\n Chandrashekhar also claimed innocence in the charges he faced and credited himself for setting up a “successful” online gaming platform generating nearly $3 billion annually.<\/p>\n “Sam, just like how you started from scratch, I too have started from a humble beginning, the only difference is a lot of baggage, has been tagged along with me, i.e., False allegations and legal cases, however, none till date have been proved against me,” the alleged conman said.<\/p>\n Sukesh Chandrashekhar, who is in jail in a Rs 200-crore extortion case, had in the past written to several known personalities, including actor Jacqueline Fernandes – who he claims to be in a relationship with, former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu.<\/p>\n He had even pitched to Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar last year for a majority stake in his Dharma Productions.<\/p>\n \u200bThe world’s richest man has received an investment offer of $2 billion from a conman jailed in India in a multi-crore fraud
