Cuttack (Odisha) [India], July 17 (ANI): A businessman in Odisha's Cuttack district got himself a gold mask worth Rs 3.5 lakh.
With his fascination for gold since childhood, Alok Mohanty was inspired to wear a gold mask after he saw some people in Mumbai flaunting masks made of gold fitted with diamond and jewels on television.
Mohanty told ANI, "After I saw a man in Mumbai making gold masks, I decided to get one for myself too. I contacted a jeweller of Zaveri Bazar, Mumbai with the proposal to prepare a mask of gold and the latter agreed."
People call him 'Gold Man' because of his love for gold.
"The jeweller got an N-95 mask and stitched gold plates and wires on it. Around 100 gm of gold has been used to prepare the gold-netted mask, which took 22 days to be made," said Mohanty, who is also a social activist. (ANI)
