What are Polaroid photos?
Polaroid photos are such instant photos, which get printed automatically within a few minutes of clicking. There is no need to send these to the photo lab separately. This is the reason why people like such pictures at tourist places. Nowadays, companies like Kodak and Fujifilm also make similar instant cameras, but in common parlance they are called Polaroid photos.
Bought camera for Rs 14 thousand
Vishnu told in the video that he had bought a Kodak instant camera by spending about 110 pounds i.e. about 14 thousand rupees. After this he reached a busy street in London and started taking photographs of people and selling them. He wrote on a cardboard, Polaroid £5 i.e. the price of each instant photo was kept at 5 pounds, which is approximately Rs 640 in Indian rupees.
After how long did customers start coming?
It is seen in the video that within the first few minutes they got their first customer. A woman got her instant photo taken and looked very happy after seeing the photo. Vishnu told that soon after this another customer was also found. He said jokingly, at that time it seemed that now he will earn lakhs.
Police arrived again
But then his earnings stopped due to the arrival of the police. It was further told in the video that the officials informed them about the permission required for selling goods on the roadside. Vishnu said that the city council officials told that doing business on the road without a permit is against the rules and a fine can also be imposed for it. If you have a permit it is easy to earn £100 an hour. However, Vishnu also said that if someone has the permission of the council, then good income can be earned from this work. He claimed that if you have a valid permit, you can easily earn up to 100 pounds per hour here.
police action
However, before the police action, Vishnu was successful in earning about 10 pounds i.e. about Rs 1200. People are discussing this small but unique business idea of his on social media.
People gave funny reactions on social media
After the video went viral, many users called this idea creative, while some people said that before starting any kind of street business in a foreign country, it is very important to know the rules there.
