Lionel Messi is finally coming to India, but if you are hoping to shake his hand, be prepared to part with a small fortune. As part of the superstar’s GOAT Tour, organisers have announced a Meet and Greet package priced at a jaw-dropping Rs 10 lakh.
Yes, ten lakhs. For one handshake, and a photo.
Messi is set to land in Kolkata at 1:30 AM IST on December 13 , kicking off a whirlwind three-day tour across four cities. His very first engagement is a Meet and Greet at the Hyatt Regency at 9:30 AM, but only those willing to pay the eye-watering fee will be able to stand face to face with the Argentine legend. That price tag pushes the experience far beyond what most fans could ever consider, leaving only a very small group able to afford a moment with the GOAT.
So what does Rs 10 lakh get
