iPhone X: Mumbai man rides from Thane to store for purchasing smartphone

In a scene straight from a Bollywood movie, a 20-year-old man donned the attire of a groom, rode the traditional horse, and flanked by the musical band galloped to purchase the Apple iPhone X which went on sale in India on Friday.   

The incident is reported from Thane near Mumbai where Mahesh Paliwal wanted to be the first one in the entire town to get his hands on the latest iPhone. 

Mahesh has till date purchased almost every version of the iPhone. He wanted his purchase to be a grand affair and it did become the talk of the town. 

“I got previous versions of iPhone from the money that my parents gave me but since I am earning I wanted to buy this phone with my own earned money and I have paid Rs 1.2 lakh cash for this model which I got from Naupada,” said Mahesh.
