₹1.5 crore to ₹2 crore. The video of the same became viral on social media. According to the tweet, the long lines were seen in the Wakad area, situated 15 km away from Pune main city.

The video was shared on microblogging site ‘X’. In the video a long queue of people could be seen standing outside a building, waiting to go inside to take a look at the houses. The user posed a question in the caption, asking if others would be willing to wait for eight hours to buy a house.

I don’t think who is standing there are those who has 1.5cr or 2cr in account. Most of them standing to get the bank business good," one user wrote. "Difficult to believe.

Could be a builder’s marketing strategy with some hired people. But I feel the same way for iPhone launch day queues, so I could be wrong," another user wrote. "This is totally misleading.

these all folks are channel partners waiting for the event and not the actual buyers," a third user wrote.
