He rented a huge billboard in the middle of a busy road in Kerala to prank his best friend on her birthday. He also shared a video on Instagram showing how she reacted to this unusual gift.

“I love you Gajwenda and please have mercy on me when I turn 30. Umma,” Nair wrote and shared the video. While sharing a longer version of the video on YouTube, he also explained, “Gayu always hated the idea of leaving her 20s and turning 30 and the day finally came. I wanted to make her day by putting her face on the busiest street in Kochi, Kerala and she hated it.”
