It seems that the cricket commentator and the former player of Indian origin have recently had what could be called the "meal of a lifetime". And considering how we live in the era of "If you do not post it on the Internet, it never happened," Chopra quickly took to Twitter to share a photo the moment he had this "memorable" meal. Unlike many of us who download photos of the delicious variety of delicacies in which we plunged, the picture of Chopra was rather shocking. Well, apparently, the meal of the former cricketer has reached a bill of nearly seven lakh! You heard us! He posted a photo of the receipt as a proof of the money that he had to shell on basic Indian dishes like paneer tikka, paneer butter, kebab with vegetables, among others.

Before you rush on Google, which is -a restaurant that would charge exorbitant rates for regular dishes such as those that Chopra ate, it looks like, wait. Although we often compare people's attention on the internet to that of a goldfish, here's why it's been helpful to look at the bill receipt a little longer. It turns out, the 40 year old is in Bali, Indonesia. Here, an Indian rupee is equal to 210 Indonesian Rupiahs (IDR) and thus, his bill actually amounts to Rs 3,334, which is considerably less than the "almost 7 lake" that Chopra tried to deceive you into. making him believe that he paid. Gotcha, sir!
