When asked about the time required to work on his experiments, Bhave stated, "Because I don't have my own workshop, I have to use other workshops whenever their owners say they can assign it to me. It takes about a month to finish work on one cycle. I don't have a clear aim. My coworker and I work on a project whenever we have time."

He also mentioned that he uses the majority of the cycles every day. Mahindra shared the post only a day ago.

Since then, it has had over 373,000 views. In the comments section, fans applauded Bhave and described his trip as inspiring.
