One of the users challenged Mall asking to share the screenshot of the Zomato bill or it didn’t happen. Mall shared the picture of the required bill. He wrote, “For all those who think this tweet is made up or story- Mentos khao dimag ki ghanti bajao.” As per the bill, he placed an order for Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew and got billed for Rs 200.
