Mancherial YouTuber pays for Rs.2.85 lakh-motorbike with Re.1 coins

A young YouTuber from Ramakrishnapur town took the staff at an automobile showroom in Mancherial by surprise, when he paid for a Rs.2.85 lakh-motorbike with one rupee coins. Yes. You read that right. Nearly three lakh coins.

Eraveni Venkatesh, the 21-year-old son of a coal miner and who operates a YouTube channel titled ‘Villain Mama Gaming’ which has over 1 lakh subscribers, usually posts videos narrating online games in Telugu. However, for his latest video, he got the quite unusual idea of buying a motorbike using 2.85 lakh one rupee coins instead of currency



notes.

The showroom staff took a day to count the coins. As many 112 polythene carry bags containing 2,500 coins each were brought from Ramakrishnapur to the showroom on an auto-trolley. Each bag weighed 10 kilograms. The bags were placed in a special room. About 12 staffers of the showroom were engaged for the counting process, which began on Thursday at 10 am and ended on Friday by 2 pm.

Venkatesh’s crew recorded the process of the coins being brought to the showroom, handing over of the coins to the management of the showroom and the entire process.
