Months ago, a video made the rounds on social media where an individual was heard making lighthearted but pointed jokes about her choice of car.
Tima was mocked over her Kia Soul
The person questioned why she had continued to drive her Kia Soul for many years, despite her visible success, ambassadorial deals, and steady presence in the media space.
Watch the TikTok video below:
In the video, the tone was more teasing than aggressive, but it quickly caught attention online.
The suggestion was simple: for someone perceived to be earning well, her car did not reflect that status.
It sparked mixed reactions, with some agreeing, while others defended her, pointing out that personal financial decisions are not always about appearances.
At the time, Tima Kumkum did not publicly respond to the comments.
Fast forward a few months, and the narrative has taken a different turn.

“There were days it felt delayed, moments I questioned the journey... but one thing I never did was stop believing,” she wrote.
Her message resonated with many followers, especially as she highlighted the idea that progress does not always happen at the pace people expect.
For her, the moment was not just about the car, but about consistency, patience, and growth over time.
The development has since shifted the earlier conversation.
What started as online teasing has now become a full-circle moment, with many praising her resilience and discipline.
