Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra recently took the Twitterati for a ride, after posting an image of a restaurant bill of 7 lakh.
That's right. 7 freaking lakh...
Wait for it...
Indonesian Rupiah.

For the unversed, Re 1 is roughly equivalent to 210 Indonesian Rupiah.
In other words, Chopra paid near about ₹ 3500 that translates to 7 lakh Indonesian Rupiah.
Baring handful users, the Twitterati had a good laugh over it, with some even pointing out that a meal in Mumbai's Carter Road is more expensive than this.
Chopra, like a good sport, took out time to respond to several users and engaged in light banter.
Dost, it’s ₹3500 in India.
