An Unlikely Revelation: Elon Musk's Son and His Heartfelt Indian Connection

Well, who would've thought it? In a world constantly abuzz with Elon Musk's ventures, from launching rockets into space to revolutionizing electric vehicles, it's often the smaller, more personal revelations that truly capture our attention. And a recent one, shared during a fascinating podcast conversation with Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath, has certainly done just that.

During their in-depth discussion on Kamath's 'WTF is with Nikhil Kamath' podcast, Musk let slip a rather charming detail about his family life, one that connects directly to India. It turns out that one of his sons has a truly significant and deeply felt 'Indian connection.' Now, you might be wondering, what kind of connection are we talking about here?

The tech mogul clarified that his son, identified as 'Sax' (presumably Saxon, one of his children), isn't just vaguely interested; he actually possesses a profound love for India. And here’s the kicker: Sax is a massive admirer of Lord Ganesha. Yes, you heard that right – the elephant-headed deity, revered as the remover of obstacles and the god of wisdom and new beginnings in Hinduism, holds a special place in the heart of Elon Musk’s son.

Musk elaborated, almost beaming, that his son has even visited India and absolutely adores the country. It’s not just a passing fancy; it’s a genuine fascination with its rich culture, its vibrant mythology, and its ancient traditions. It really paints a different picture, doesn't it? Beyond the high-stakes world of Silicon Valley and global innovation, there's a family discovering and appreciating the spiritual and cultural tapestry of India.

Interestingly, the appreciation for India isn't entirely new for Musk himself. He’s previously expressed admiration for Indian architecture and its deeply historical roots. So, while his son's particular devotion to Lord Ganesha might be a unique and delightful surprise, the family's broader appreciation for India seems to be a shared sentiment. It's a sweet, personal anecdote that reminds us that even the most prominent figures in the world have diverse and unexpected connections.
