A young man from Tamil Nadu had dreamed of buying his dream bike (Bajaj Dominar 400 CC) three years ago, but at that time its price was so high that he could not muster the courage to buy it. However, he did not give up and started collecting coins of one rupee every day and after three years his wish was finally fulfilled. In Salem, Tamil Nadu, a man bought his dream bike on Saturday by paying Rs 2.6 lakh in one rupee coin.
It took about 10 hours for the showroom staff to count the coins. The man had brought this money in sacks and brought it from a van to the showroom. According to a Times of India report, 29-year-old V Boopathi had been collecting coins of one rupee each for the last three years so that he could buy Bajaj’s Dominar 400 cc bike.

Eventually it worked out for him when a Bajaj showroom in the city agreed to sell him a Dominar 400 cc bike worth Rs 2.6 lakh for Re 1 coins. Bupati used to convert his every savings into coins to buy a bike. Bupathi told the newspaper that he had been collecting these one rupee coins for three years. Whenever he found a one rupee coin, he used to collect it at the tea stall, at the temple or while buying other things.
With the help of his friends, 29-year-old Bupati came to the showroom on Saturday afternoon carrying coins in sacks. Altogether these coins were 2 lakh 60 thousand rupees. It took us around 10 hours to count the coins, Mahavikrant, manager of Bharat Agency (Bajaj Showroom), told TOI.

Showroom manager Mahavikrant told that at first he was going to refuse to accept these coins, but he did not want to disappoint Bupathi. So he agreed to deal in coins. The bank will charge him Rs 140 for depositing one lakh rupees, but he still agreed, because Bupathi had a dream to buy this bike and for this he had raised this money.
Bupati, his four friends and the showroom staff together counted these coins throughout the day and finally at 9 pm on Saturday night, Bupati could get his bike. Bupati works as a computer operator in a private company and lives in the Gandhi Maidan area of Ammapet in the city. He is also a YouTuber who has posted many videos.
