The UAE’s Richest Indian Expat Visits His School In Kerala After 52 Years

This is an incredible story steeped in inspiration to get you through the week…

M. A. Yusuff Ali, the much-loved Managing Director of Lulu Hypermarket, returned to his school after 52 years. Having departed India for Abu Dhabi in 1973, his remarkable journey of success has been recounted many times. Starting his professional journey by joining his uncle’s distribution company, the Lulu Group, he proceeded to establish the first LuLu Hypermarket during the 1990s. Subsequently, he leapt to the position of the richest Indian expat in Dubai, with Forbes summing his fortune at nearly $6 billion in 2023. He currently ranks as the 455th wealthiest individual globally.

But billionaire behaviour was nowhere to be seen judging from videos shared by @sahad.k.s, in which you can see the heroic return…

52 years later Yusuff Ali visits his old school and it looks like schoolmates catching up
