Golden Shirt costing Rs.12Lakhs stitched for a wealthy man

"I know I am not the best-looking man in the world, but surely no woman could fail to be dazzled by this shirt", said Datta Phuge who wanted female heads to turn to him. After diamonds, girls turn their heads only to something as precious, Gold.

32 year old Datta had an idea, a shirt made of solid gold could be the biggest head-turner. Being filthy rich, he had no problem acquiring one. He immediately ordered 15 goldsmiths to work on the shirt for 16 hours a day for two weeks and the final product was a bright shirt that dazzled akin to the sun. He spent £14,000 (US$21,337) to have the shirt made. The shirt was made completely from 22k gold, and six Swarowski gems formed the buttons to this blingy shirt adding more of the bling factor.

Pieces of left over gold were melted into rings, cuffs and also a shiny belt to go with the shirt. He says, "The gold shirt has been one of my dreams. It will be an embellishment to my reputation as the 'Gold man of Pimpri,'"

Well, after all, money CAN buy love!
