Rahul Bose was charged Rs. 442.50 for two bananas. What?
Luxury comes at a price, even if one eats something as cheap as bananas at a top-tier hotel. Actor Rahul Bose got a taste of this unreasonable pricing during his stay at JW Marriott in Chandigarh. It so happened that he ordered two bananas at the hotel, and when the bill was presented, he saw that he was charged Rs. 442.50!
They're just too good for me, Rahul cheekily ends video
Rahul, in a video on Twitter, shared that in the bill, the bananas were listed as "Fruit Platter," which he had ordered during his workout session at the hotel. Once he returned to his room, he received the fruits, along with a bill that charged him Rs. 442.50, including GST. He ends the video by cheekily commenting, "They're just too good for me."
"Who said fruit wasn't harmful to your existence?"

Ever since Rahul shared the video, netizens went berserk and flooded social media with hilarious reactions. While some Twitter users called out the hotel for their "daylight robbery" and touted it as a "crime," some jeered saying these were probably the last bananas in Chandigarh.
