According to Times of India, V Boopathi walked away with a Bajaj Dominar 400 from a showroom in Salem on Saturday. The bike was handed over to him after five members of the showroom staff, along with four friends of Mr Boopathi, worked for over 10 hours to count all the coins. The coins were brought to the showroom in a van and offloaded using wheelbarrows.
Photos shared by news agency ANI on Twitter show the team hard at work counting the one-rupee coins. One of the pics also shows V Boopathi, 29, with his brand new motorcycle.
