Sukesh wrote, "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," reported Hindustan Times.

He stressed that if this investment were accepted, it would make him a "proud Indian."

Praise for Musk

Referring to Musk as "my man," Sukesh's letter also includes praise for the billionaire's leadership in the United States government's newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Additionally, Chandrashekhar refers to former US President Donald Trump as his "big brother."

"Elon, you are someone who I really look up to, you are solid, Tankman, Bulletproof. What you have built is amazing. Being a part of that build would be the craziest and greatest thing for me," the letter states.

A Pattern of Jailhouse Letters

This is not the first time Sukesh Chandrashekhar has made public declarations from prison. He has previously written letters to several high-profile individuals, including Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez, former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu.

Earlier this month, the fraudster made an investment proposal to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. In a letter, he offered to invest $1 billion immediately, followed by an additional $2 billion over five years, to support OpenAI's Indian operations.

"Sam, why go to venture capital investors? Why should the big boys always have the fun? Sam, please just take my money," he wrote, reiterating his enthusiasm to be part of OpenAI's expansion in India.
