Payment Through Mehndi’s QR Code

We are just a day away from Raksha Bandhan, one of the cutest festivals celebrated in India. The ritual of tying a rakhi to a brother is one of the most special things cherished by siblings. Brothers travel from their places to meet and greet their sisters. People love to celebrate this day with so many sweets and other gifts.

In recent times, there is also a trend of giving a sum of money as a “Nek” to sisters. With advancements in technology, that too has become an online transaction. Now, a recent video shows us a unique way of payment. In the video, we see a girl having Mehndi drawn on her hand. Upon closer inspection, we notice that the mehndi drawn on her hand contains a QR code. The guy scans the code with his phone and pays her the money.

This new style seems as unique as it is unbelievable. Some people on Twitter are calling it unique and innovative, while there is a section of people that consider it a fake video. According to them, it is impossible to create a QR code on a hand. What do you think about the video? Also, do tell us how you are planning to celebrate this Raksha Bandhan.
