He is now planning to lend his car-turned-helicopter for wedding functions. "I will use it for bookings in wedding ceremonies" he also said.

This is not the first time a man in Bihar has come up with such creativity to modify their car. Earlier in February, a resident of Bagaha in Bihar had also modified his Nano car into a helicopter by spending over 2 Lakh. He was also planning to rent it out for a nominal price of 15,000.

Guddu Sharma had decided to modify his car after he noticed a huge demand for helicopters during weddings. The prospective grooms wish to bring their bride home, but due to money problems, they can't afford it, he had said.

In 2019 as well, a man from Chapra city modified his Tata Nano to make it look like a helicopter.
