In India, it is common to see vendors and small shopkeepers trying to sell their products by attracting customers in their own distinctive style. Some try to catch people's attention by composing catchy jingles like Bhuban Badyakar who went viral for his 'Kacha Badam' song. Now, a video of a street vendor and his unique style of selling his products has gone viral on the internet.
The video was shared by Indian Police Service officer Dipanshu Kabra on Twitter. In the short clip, a man can be seen selling huge plastic containers which he refers to as ''gamlas''. He then goes on to throw the containers on the road, again and again, to prove how sturdy they are.
"#Marketing Level - Ultra Pro Max," Mr Kabra captioned the post.
