During the journey, Rathod crossed the Bhima River flyover before entering Tamil Nadu. From there, he travelled through Andhra Pradesh and Mantralayam before reaching the destination company.

The truck driver said he spent Rs 3,000 on food during the trip. The total amount earned from the journey was Rs 90,000. According to Rathod, he made a profit of Rs 50,000 after accounting for the expenses.
