The 100 Rupee Smile
|
| Homeless individuals face many challenges in their present situations, so Gowtham Shola just wants to give them a moment of magic. Shola, an illusionist, walks through the streets of New Delhi, India and performs magic tricks. After asking for a rupee, Shola performs a sleight of hand to transform the single rupee into a 100-rupee note. With a fun and captivating trick, he removes the assumptions or attitudes of giving alms or providing charity. And that will bring a smile to anyone’s face. |
